Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of acetabular cup positions on the acetabular side stress in hip dysplasia after total hip arthroplasty (THA) using finite element analysis.Methods:Data were obtained from a 36-year-old female patient with developmental dysplasia of the hip. Three-dimensional finite element models were established for different acetabular cup positions using finite element analysis. Each model was categorized based on the center of rotation into four groups: anatomical rotation center, high rotation center, lateralized rotation center, superior-lateral rotation center. ANSYS software applied loads to the model to simulate the stress around the acetabulum in standing (588 N vertical stress) and walking conditions ( X=325 N, Y=-195 N, Z=1 462.5 N). Quantitative analyses of the relative displacement and stress at the acetabular-bone interface were conducted for each region under the two different loading conditions in all eight models. Results:In the standing position with a cup coverage of 90%, the relative displacement at the acetabular-bone interface was: 45.16 μm for the anatomical rotation center group, 47.57 μm for the high rotation center group, 77.27 μm for the lateralized rotation center group, and 96.13 μm for the superior-lateral rotation center group. Acetabular stress values were 9.07 MPa for the anatomical rotation center group, 11.23 MPa for the high rotation center group, 10.88 MPa for the lateralized rotation center group, and 17.75 MPa for the superior-lateral rotation center group. With a cup coverage of 70%, the relative displacements were 64.15, 65.71, 104.10, and 144.53 μm for the respective groups. The corresponding stresses were 9.30, 11.31, 13.98, and 21.45 MPa. In the walking state with a cup coverage of 90%, the relative displacements at the acetabular-bone interface were 189.67 μm for the anatomical rotation center group, 173.55 μm for the high rotation center group 311.03 μm for the lateralized rotation center group, and 572.93 μm for the superior-lateral rotation center group. The stresses were 39.92, 37.33, 47.92, and 71.94 MPa, respectively. With a cup coverage of 70%, the relative displacements were 239.09 μm for the anatomical rotation center group, 248.83 μm for the high rotation center group, 381.84 μm for the lateralized rotation center group, and 1105.90 μm for the superior-lateral rotation center group. The corresponding stresses were 40.62, 58.42, 56.26, and 3,606.30 MPa.Conclusion:With cup coverage at 70% and 90%, the high rotation center and anatomical rotation center exhibited lower and less frequent relative displacements at the acetabular-bone contact surface.
