Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Acetabular cup orientation is critical for preserving the range of motion and preventing dislocation of the prosthesis. Cup malpositioning may result in an increased polyethylene wear rate,pelvic osteolysis and acetabular migration (aseptic loosening).There are no definite criterion for the orientation of the acetabular cup.OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between acetabular cup Position and the load distribution within the acetabulum and to confirm an optimal range of cup position.thereby providing a theoretical criterion from a biomechanical aspect for proper cup implantation in clinical work.DESIGN:Repeated measurements.SETTING:Second Department of Orthopaedics in the First Clinical Hospital of Jilin University.MATERIALS: One healthy male adult fresh Cadaveric pelvis was offered by the Department of Anatomy in Jilin University.METHODS:This experiment was carried out at the Institute of Orthopaedics in the First Clinical Hospital of Jilin University,and the Institute of Biomechanics in Jilin University from September 2005 to May 2006.Cadaveric pelvic was scanned with spiral CT,and then the two-dimensional images were evaluated using GE medical systems software and the outline of the pelvis was identified by the edge detective estimation.Pelvic coordinate data were put into the computer to build up a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model of the pelvic using Solidworks software.A P48 non-cemented cup from Tianjin Huabei Medical Instrument Factory was used,and the 3D measurement of the cup was carried out by CLY single-arm 3D measurement apparatus,which was made in Testing Technology Institute of China.The measurement data were transferred into computer.Through the CAD SliodWorks2003 software,the 3D model of the cup was automatically reconstructed. Afterwards, one-foot standing position was simulated to conduct the loading and constraint of the model,the Mises and shear force distributing of the cup were analyzed,forecasting the mechanical risk of prosthetic failure.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The evaluation of Mises stress and shear force distributions under different cup positions.RESULTS:In the 3D finite element modeI of human pelvis.the number of total nodes was 103043 and the number of total elements was 69271.Abduction angle did not affect the Mises and shear force distributions between the range of 40°-50°(P>0.05).However,significant affects appeared in Mises and shear force once the abduction angle was<35°or>50°.The change of the cup anteversion within 5°-30°would not affect the Mises and shear forces in the acetabulum(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:A uniform load distribution on the cup-bone interface can be obtained when the cup abduction angle is from 40°to 50°.The change of the cup anteversion angle can not affect the load distribution in the acetabulum,therefore the cup abduction range of 40°-50°can be confirmed as the safe range for cup implantation.
