ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Prosthesis loosening and wear are still the main problems in the failure of total ankle replacement,which are closely related to the micro-motion of the implant-bone interface,the contact stress of the articular surface and joint motion.The design of artificial joint components,including insert and tibial/talar stem prosthesis,is a key factor affecting the force,motion,and micromotion of the contact interface of the ankle joint.The development of new inserts is of great significance to improve the survival rate of artificial ankle joints. OBJECTIVE:The finite element model of the total ankle replacement model was constructed to detect the biomechanical properties of the porous structure-optimized inserts,and the effect of the porous structure-optimized inserts on reducing prosthesis micromotion and improving the contact behavior of the articular surface was analyzed. METHODS:Based on the CT scan data of the right ankle joint of a healthy adult and the INBONE Ⅱ system product manual,a three-dimensional model including bone and artificial joint system was established,and the total ankle replacement model(model A)was obtained after osteotomy and prosthesis installation,and then through four new types of inserts,G50,G60,D50,and D60,were obtained by transforming the porous structure of the original insert,and the original one was replaced with different inserts to establish an optimized total ankle replacement model(models B-E)corresponding to the inserts.The gait loads were applied on the five models to simulate the gait conditions.The differences in micromotion and articular surface contact behaviors at the implant-bone interface of all five models were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the gait cycle,the micromotion of the prosthesis of the four optimized total ankle replacement models was lower than that of the original model.Compared with model A,the micromotion of the prosthesis in models B-E decreased by 5.4%,10.1%,8.1%,and 20.9%,respectively.The high micromotion area of t ??he tibial groove dome in the optimized model was significantly smaller than that of the original model.(2)The four optimized models obtained a larger articular surface contact area.Compared with model A,the average contact area of t ??he inserts in models B-E increased by 11.8%,14.7%,8.1%,and 32.6%,respectively.(3)Similar to the effect of increasing the contact area,compared with the original model,the contact stress of the optimized model decreased in varying degrees,and the value of model E decreased the most significantly(P<0.05),it is due to good mechanical properties and large porosity of the Diamond lattice that constitutes the D60-type insert.(4)The research results show that the use of porous structure to improve the inserts can improve the elasticity of the inserts and increase its ability to absorb joint impact,for favorable conditions are created for reducing micromotion at the implant-bone interface and improving joint contact behavior.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To discuss the influence of artificial ankle elastic improved inserts (hereinafter referred to as "improved inserts") in reducing prosthesis micromotion and improving joint surface contact mechanics by finite element analysis.@*METHODS@#Based on the original insert of INBONE Ⅱ implant system (model A), four kinds of improved inserts were constructed by adding arc or platform type flexible layer with thickness of 1.3 or 2.6 mm, respectively. They were Flying goose type_1.3 elastic improved insert (model B), Flying goose type_2.6 elastic improved insert (model C), Platform type_1.3 elastic improved insert (model D), Platform type_2.6 elastic improved insert (model E). Then, the CT data of right ankle at neutral position of a healthy adult male volunteer was collected, and finite element models of total ankle replacement (TAR) was constructed based on model A-E prostheses by software of Mimics 19.0, Geomagic wrap 2017, Creo 6.0, Hypermesh 14.0, and Abaqus 6.14. Finally, the differences of bone-metal prosthesis interface micromotion and articular surface contact behavior between different models were investigated under ISO gait load.@*RESULTS@#The tibia/talus-metal prosthesis interfaces micromotion of the five TAR models gradually increased during the support phase, then gradually fell back after entering the swing phase. The improved models (models B-E) showed lower bone-metal prosthesis interface micromotion when compared with the original model (model A), but there was no significant difference among models A-E ( P>0.05). The maximum micromotion of tibia appeared at the dome of the tibial bone groove, and the ​​micromotion area was the largest in model A and the smallest in model E. The maximum micromotion of talus appeared at the posterior surface of the central bone groove, and there was no difference in the micromotion area among models A-E. The contact area of the articular surface of the insert/talus prosthesis in each group increased in the support phase and decreased in the swing phase during the gait cycle. Compared with model A, the articular surface contact area of models B-E increased, but there was no significant difference among models A-E ( P>0.05). The change trend of the maximum stress on the articular surface of the inserts/talus prosthesis was similar to that of the contact area. Only the maximum contact stress of the insert joint surface of models D and E was lower than that of model A, while the maximum contact stress of the talar prosthesis joint surface of models B-E was lower than that of model A, but there was no significant difference among models A-E ( P>0.05). The high stress area of the lateral articular surface of the improved inserts significantly reduced, and the articular surface stress distribution of the talus prosthesis was more uniform.@*CONCLUSION@#Adding a flexible layer in the insert can improve the elasticity of the overall component, which is beneficial to absorb the impact force of the artificial ankle joint, thereby reducing interface micromotion and improving contact behavior. The mechanical properties of the inserts designed with the platform type and thicker flexible layer are better.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the predictive factors for prepatellar subfascial gas in patients with closed patellar fracture and their impacts on the early infection following internal fixation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in the 148 patients with closed patellar fracture who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Zhangjiagang Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University from January 2018 through December 2021. All patients underwent preoperative three-dimensional CT examination of the knee joint and was treated by open reduction and internal fixation of patellar fractures. According to the presence or absence of gas in the prepatellar fascia, the patients were divided into 2 groups. In the gas group of 18 patients, there were 12 males and 6 females with an age of (58.3±14.5) years; in the gas-free group of 130 patients, there were 57 males and 73 females with an age of (60.5±14.6) years. The risk factors for prepatellar subfascial gas were screened out by comparing the gender, age, body mass index, injury mechanism, AO/OTA classification, diabetes, primary hypertension, neutrophil percentage, lymphocyte percentage, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, procalcitonin, and albumin before operation between the 2 groups. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for risk factors were made to identify the best screening points. The impacts of prepatellar subfascial gas were analyzed on early infection after internal fixation.Results:The preoperative neutrophil percentage was the risk factor for prepatellar subfascial gas ( P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of preoperative neutrophil percentage for prediction of prepatellar subfascial gas was 0.700 (95% CI: 0.554 to 0.847), the optimal critical value was 78.45%, and the sensitivity and specificity were 0.556 and 0.831, respectively ( P=0.006). In the gas group, the incidence of early postoperative infection was insignificantly higher ( P=0.058) , but the time for postoperative antibiotic use was significantly longer and the dressing changes were significantly more frequent than those in the gas-free group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In patients with closed patellar fracture, preoperative neutrophil percentage >78.45% can be used as an effective non-imaging indicator for prepatellar subfascial gas. A patient with prepatellar subfascial gas could be more prone to early postoperative infection.
