| Popis: | Total hip arthroplasty represents a major surgical achievement for pain relief and restoration of lifestyle quality due to the joint disease of osteoarthritis. Total hip replacement has evolved over the past 30 years utilising a variety of biocompatible materials, geometric shapes and fixation techniques. The main objective of this study is to investigate the long-term effects of strain adaptive bone remodelling due to the influence of a novel titanium cementless femoral hip replacement. The period of on-growth has been taken into account and the simulation has been run to predict the remodelling behaviour for a 36-month period. The main conclusion from this analysis is that the implant does shield the calcar to a similar degree as other cementless femoral hip designs. It does, however, tend to cause bone to be laid down along its length. This may, in part, be due to the novel geometry of the implant interlocking with and loading the bone. |
