ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective To evaluate, through biomechanical testing, the resistance to and energy required for the occurrence of proximal femoral fracture in synthetic bone after removal of a proximal femoral nail model (PFN), comparing the results obtained with a reinforcement technique using polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Methods Fifteen synthetic bones were used: five units for the control group (CG), five for the test group without reinforcement (TGNR), and five for the test group with reinforcement (TGR). The biomechanical analysis was performed simulating a fall on the trochanter using a servo-hydraulic machine. In the GC, the assay was performed with the PFN intact. In the TGNR and TGR groups, a model of PFN was introduced and the tests were performed in the TGNR, after simple removal of the synthesis material, and in the TGR, after removal of the same PFN model and filling of the cavity in the femoral neck with PMMA. Results All groups presented a basicervical fracture. The CG presented a mean of 1427.39 Newtons (N) of maximum load and 10.14 Joules (J) of energy for the occurrence of the fracture. The TGNR and TGR presented 892.14 N and 1477.80 N of maximum load, and 6.71 J and 11.99 J of energy, respectively. According to the Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA, there was a significant difference in the maximum load (p = 0.009) and energy (p = 0.007) between these groups. Conclusion The simple removal of a PFN in synthetic bone showed a significant reduction of the maximum load and energy for the occurrence of fracture, which were re-established with a reinforcement technique using PMMA.


Resumo Objetivo Avaliar, por meio de ensaio biomecânico, a resistência e a energia necessária para ocorrência de fratura do fêmur proximal em osso sintético após retirada de um modelo de haste de fêmur proximal (PFN) e comparar os resultados obtidos com técnica de reforço com polimetilmetacrilato (PMMA). Métodos Foram usados 15 ossos sintéticos: cinco unidades para o grupo controle (GC), cinco para o grupo teste sem reforço (GTS) e cinco para grupo teste com reforço (GTC). A análise biomecânica foi feita e simulou queda sobre o trocânter com máquina servo-hidráulica. No GC, o ensaio foi feito com sua integridade intacta. Nos grupos GTS e GTC, foi introduzido um modelo de PFN e os ensaios foram feitos no GTS, após simples retirada do material de síntese, e no GTC, após retirada do mesmo modelo de haste e preenchimento do pertuito no colo com PMMA. Resultado Todos os grupos apresentaram fratura basocervical. O grupo GC apresentou média 1.427,39 Newtons (N) de carga máxima e 10,14 Joules (J) de energia para a ocorrência da fratura. Os grupos GTS e GTC apresentaram 892,14 N e 1.477,80 N de carga máxima e 6,71 J e 11,99 J de energia, respectivamente. Segundo a Anova de Kruskal-Wallis, existe diferença significativa na carga máxima (p = 0,009) e na energia (p = 0,007) entre esses grupos. Conclusão A simples retirada de um PFN em osso sintético apresentou redução significativa da carga máxima e da energia para a ocorrência de fratura, que foram reestabelecidas com uma técnica de reforço com PMMA.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To analyze statistically results obtained between biomechanical assays on fixation of femoral neck fracture type Pauwels III, on synthetic bone, using 7.5 mm non parallel cannulated screws and control group. METHODS: Ten synthetic bones from a national brand were used. Test group: fixation of 70(o) tilt femoral neck osteotomy was performed using three 7.5 mm non parallel cannulated screws. We analyzed the resistance of this fixation with 5 mm of displacement, and rotational deviation (phase 1) and with 10 mm offset (phase 2). Control group: the models were tested in their integrity until the femoral neck fracture occurred. RESULTS: the values of the test group in phase 1, in sample 1-5 had a mean of 517N and SD = 96N. Rotational deviations showed a mean of 3.79° e SD = 2. 03°. In phase 2, mean was 649N and SD = 94N. The values of the maximum load in the control group were: 1544N, 1110N, 1359N, 1194N, 1437N; respectively. Statistical analysis between the groups showed a statistically significant lower value in the test group. CONCLUSION: the analysis of mechanical resistance between the groups has determined statistically significant value for the test group. Level of Evidence III, Case-control Study. .

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Avaliar in vitro a resistência mecânica do DHS–AF®.MÉTODOS: Foi avaliado in vitro a resistência de um parafuso deslizante modificado pelo acréscimo de um sistema conector, o DHS–AF®.RESULTADOS: A modificação realizada pelos autores permite a troca do parafuso deslizante, sem que obrigatoriamente o cirurgião tenha que retirar a placa e desmontar todo o dispositivo para reposicioná-lo adequadamente. Foi realizado um ensaio de flexão estático para avaliação da força máxima, rigidez e ductilidade deste sistema. O DHS-AF® apresentou características mecânicas satisfatórias quando comparado a outros dispositivos convencionais que utilizam o mesmo princípio.CONCLUSÃO: Baseados nesses resultados, os autores propõem a utilização desse novo implante em futuros estudos in vivo. Nível de Evidência III, Estudo Analítico.


OBJECTIVE: To analyze the in vitro mechanical strength of the DHS-AF®.METHODS: We evaluated the in vitro resistance of a sliding bolt modified by the addition of a connector system, DHS-AF®.RESULTS: The changes performed by the authors allow the exchange by the surgeon of the sliding bolt without the need to remove the plate and disassemble the entire device to reposition it properly. We conducted a static bending test to evaluate maximum strength, stiffness and ductility of the system. DHS-AF® showed satisfactory mechanical properties when compared to other conventional devices which use the same principle.CONCLUSION: Based on these results, the authors propose the use of this new implant in further in vivo studies. Level of Evidence III, Analytical Study.
