The objective was to determine whether the Ganz ring is suitable for correcting segmental acetabular rim defects at different regions during total hip arthroplasty revision as well as the number of screws required to fix the Ganz ring. A finite element model of the hip joint was generated to simulate and evaluate the insertion and fixation of the Ganz ring and acetabular cup in the context of segmental rim defects in the anterior column, superior portion, and posterior column. Micro-motion was the greatest in the posterior column defect and the least in the anterior column defect. However, the peak stress distribution on the remaining portion of the acetabular rim was the highest in the superior portion defect, following the pos- terior column defect and anterior column defect. Increasing the number of fixations of the Ganz ring did not decrease the micro-motion. We found that the Ganz ring effectively provided biomechanical stability during the reconstruction of the segmental rim defect as long as the screws fixed the Ganz ring well to the host bone.展开更多

文摘The study aimed to develop efficient techniques with different novel graft structures to enhance the treatment of acetabular bone deficiency.The inhomogeneous material properties Finite Element Analysis(FEA)model was reconstructed according to computed tomography images based on a healthy patient without any peri-acetabular bony defect according to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons(AAOS).The FEA model of acetabular bone deficiency was performed to simulate and evaluate the mechanical performances of the grafts in different geometric structures,with the use of fixation implants(screws),along with the stress distribution and the relative micromotion of graft models.The stress distribution mainly concentrated on the region of contact of the screws and superolateral bone.Among the different structures,the mortise-tenone structure provided better relative micromotion,with suitable biomechanical property even without the use of screws.The novel grafting structures could provide sufficient biomechanical stability and bone remodeling,and the mortise-tenone structure is the optimal treatment option for acetabulum reconstruction.
