Biomechanical comparison of locking plate and crossing metallic and absorbable screws fixations for intra-articular calcaneal fractures

The locking plate and percutaneous crossing metallic screws and crossing absorbable screws have been used clinically to treat intra-articular calcaneal fractures, but little is known about the biomechanical differences between them. This study compared the biomechanical stability of calcaneal fractures fixed using a locking plate and crossing screws. Three-dimensional finite-element models of intact and fractured calcanei were developed based on the CT images of a cadaveric sample. Surgeries were simulated on models of Sanders type III calcaneal fractures to produce accurate postoperative models fixed by the three implants. A vertical force was applied to the superior surface of the subtalar joint to simulate the stance phase of a walking gait. This model was validated by an in vitro experiment using the same calcaneal sample. The intact calcaneus showed greater stiffness than the fixation models. Of the three fixations, the locking plate produced the greatest stiffness and the highest von Mises stress peak. The micromotion of the fracture fixated with the locking plate was similar to that of the fracture fixated with the metallic screws but smaller than that fixated with the absorbable screws. Fixation with both plate and crossing screws can be used to treat intra-articular calcaneal fractures. In general, fixation with crossing metallic screws is preferable because it provides sufficient stability with less stress shielding.

Femoral neck fracture after removal of the standard gamma interlocking nail: a cadaveric study to determine factors influencing the biomechanical properties of the proximal femur

We retrospectively analyzed 1334 patients who were implanted standard gamma interlocking nails^® (SGN) to stabilize trochanteric femoral fractures over the years 1992–1998. Reoperation to remove the nails was performed in 37 patients, in 9 of them purely because of pain. Three out of these 9 patients with removed SGN suffered femoral neck fractures in the early postoperative course after having been mobilized to full weight-bearing capacity. This complication was not observed with other implant systems and, considering the notoriously high complication rate of femoral neck fractures, severely reduces the value of the SGN concept per se. These findings in combination with other known shortcomings of SGNs prompted us to conduct an experimental study on the fracture force of excavated femurs addressing the hypothesis that the specific design of the SGN is responsible for the occurrence of fatigue fractures of the femoral neck. Eighteen matched pairs of fresh human cadaveric proximal femurs, which were treated by insertion and removal of (i) SGNs or (ii) dynamic hip screws^® (DHS) or (iii) by excavation in the absence of an implant, were subjected to incremental loading cycles and compared to the untreated contralateral femurs. Overall, the fracture force was found to be significantly lower among the treated than among the untreated bones. However, the fracture force required after removal of the DHS system was still significantly higher than for SGN or excavation alone. In this way, our findings demonstrate that removing relatively big implants such as SGN can cause serious complications such as femoral neck fractures. We therefore recommend to leave this type of device in place even after fracture healing except in cases of deep and chronic infection.     

Cortical screw pullout strength and effective shear stress in synthetic third generation composite femurs

BACKGROUND: The use of artificial bone analogs in biomechanical testing of orthopaedic fracture fixation devices has increased, particularly due to the recent development of commercially available femurs such as the third generation composite femur that closely reproduce the bulk mechanical behavior of human cadaveric and/or fresh whole bone. The purpose of this investigation was to measure bone screw pullout forces in composite femurs and determine whether results are comparable to cadaver data from previous literature. METHOD OF APPROACH: The pullout strengths of 3.5 and 4.5 mm standard bicortical screws inserted into synthetic third generation composite femurs were measured and compared to existing adult human cadaveric and animal data from the literature. RESULTS: For 3.5 mm screws, the measured extraction shear stress in synthetic femurs (23.70-33.99 MPa) was in the range of adult human femurs and tibias (24.4-38.8 MPa). For 4.5 mm screws, the measured values in synthetic femurs (26.04-34.76 MPa) were also similar to adult human specimens (15.9-38.9 MPa). Synthetic femur results for extraction stress showed no statistically significant site-to-site effect for 3.5 and 4.5 mm screws, with one exception. Overall, the 4.5 mm screws showed statistically higher stress required for extraction than 3.5 mm screws. CONCLUSIONS: The third generation composite femurs provide a satisfactory biomechanical analog to human long-bones at the screw-bone interface. However, it is not known whether these femurs perform similarly to human bone during physiological screw "toggling."     

The Mechanical Benefit of Medial Support Screws in Locking Plating of Proximal Humerus Fractures

Background

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical advantages of medial support screws (MSSs) in the locking proximal humeral plate for treating proximal humerus fractures.

Methods

Thirty synthetic left humeri were randomly divided into 3 subgroups to establish two-part surgical neck fracture models of proximal humerus. All fractures were fixed with a locking proximal humerus plate. Group A was fixed with medial cortical support and no MSSs; Group B was fixed with 3 MSSs but without medial cortical support; Group C was fixed with neither medial cortical support nor MSSs. Axial compression, torsional stiffness, shear stiffness, and failure tests were performed.

Results

Constructs with medial support from cortical bone showed statistically higher axial and shear stiffness than other subgroups examined (P<0.0001). When the proximal humerus was not supported by medial cortical bone, locking plating with medial support screws exhibited higher axial and torsional stiffness than locking plating without medial support screws (P≤0.0207). Specimens with medial cortical bone failed primarily by fracture of the humeral shaft or humeral head. Specimens without medial cortical bone support failed primarily by significant plate bending at the fracture site followed by humeral head collapse or humeral head fracture.

Conclusions

Anatomic reduction with medial cortical support was the stiffest construct after a simulated two-part fracture. Significant biomechanical benefits of MSSs in locking plating of proximal humerus fractures were identified. The reconstruction of the medial column support for proximal humerus fractures helps to enhance mechanical stability of the humeral head and prevent implant failure.

In-vitro comparison of LC-DCP- and LCP-constructs in the femur of newborn calves - a pilot study

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: To compare the biomechanical in-vitro characteristics of limited-contact dynamic compression plate (LC-DCP) and locking compression plate (LCP) constructs in an osteotomy gap model of femoral fracture in neonatal calves. Pairs of intact femurs from 10 calves that had died for reasons unrelated to the study were tested. A 7-hole LC-DCP with six 4.5 mm cortical screws was used in one femur and a 7-hole LCP with four 5.0 mm locking and two 4.5 mm cortical screws was used in the corresponding femur. The constructs were tested to failure by cyclic compression at a speed of 2 mm/s within six increasing force levels. RESULTS: The bone-thread interface was stripped in 21 of 80 cortical screws (26.3%) before a pre-set insertion torque of 3 Nm was achieved. Only 3 corresponding intact pairs of constructs could be statistically compared for relative structural stiffness, actuator excursion and width of the osteotomy gap. Relative structural stiffness was significantly greater, actuator excursion and width of the osteotomy gap were significantly smaller in the LCP constructs. While failure occurred by loosening of the screws in the LC-DCP constructs, locking constructs failed by cutting large holes in the soft distal metaphyseal bone. CONCLUSIONS: An insertion torque sufficient to provide adequate stability in femurs of newborn calves could not be achieved reliably with 4.5 mm cortical screws. Another limiting factor for both constructs was the weak cancellous bone of the distal fracture fragment. LCP constructs were significantly more resistant to compression than LC-DCP constructs.     

The fixion proximal femur nailing system: biomechanical properties of the nail and a cadaveric study

The treatment of choice for early mobilization of hip fracture is surgery, which traditionally employs side plates and screws or intramedullary nails. We examined the biomechanical properties of a new proximal femoral nail system. The new expandable Fixion proximal femur nailing (PFN) system, made of stainless-steel alloy, consists of a nail, a peg and an anti-rotation pin. Upon positioning, the nail and peg are expanded to their maximal diameter. The current biomechanical study investigated: nail bending strength and stiffness, fatigue properties and hip peg strength. A cadaveric study that determined the effect of the expandable peg on the femoral head included subsidence testing, pull and torsion testing and intra-osseous pressure (IOP) measurements before and after expansion. Biomechanical properties of the new nail met ASTM F384 guideline requirements. The cadaver study yielded equivalent results for the pullout test between the peg and the hip screw, but found the peg superior in the torsion strength test. IOP during peg insertion and expansion was substantially lower than the threshold pressure that causes avascular necrosis. The biomechanical tests found the new system to be safe and able to provide good abutment of the nail to the bone. We conclude that the Fixion PFN system proved to be an effective proximal femur fracture fixation device.
