Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Standard artificial prosthesis does not well match to patients' skeleton due to absolute individuation,while the difference between them does not keep the stabilization of artificial joint for a long term.OBJECTIVE:To construct three-dimensional models of custom-made femoral prosthesis by using computer-aided design and to verify whether custom-made femoral prosthesis is superior to popular femoral prosthesis via simulating and contrasting mechanical study.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Opening study was performed in the Orthopaedics Institute of the First Clinical Hospital and the Biomechanics Institute,Jilin University between September 2006 and May 2007.MATERIALS:One fresh femur was derived from adult corps.METHODS:Two-dimensional images of the fresh femur was obtained by using total-length CT scanning and processed with computer edge recognition and three-dimensional contour extraction software to identify outer and inner contour of bone cavity,extract contour data of bone cavity and prosthesis,and construct three-dimensional models of femur and custom-rhade femoral prosthesis.SolidWorks software was used to establish three-dimensional prosthetic models in common biological and bone cement types; moreover,bone-cement,biological,and custom-made femoral prosthesis were replaced via simulating clinical surgery.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Standing on single or double feet was simulated to measure stress distribution,interface stress,and primary micromotion of femoral prosthesis in the three types.RESULTS:Edge extracting was replaced by Canny calculator,characterizing by stable running,credible outcome,and consistent with the primary request.Stress,femoral stress,interface stress,and primary micromotion of custom-made femoral prosthesis were significantly lower than biological and'bone-cement femoral prosthesis (P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION:The computer-aided design is reliable to perform the assistant design of prosthesis; furthermore,biomechanical properties of the custom-made femoral prosthesis are superior to those of popular femoral prosthesis.
