Computational modelling and optimization of porous plates for mandibular fracture fixation accounting for bone healing

open access: yesMaterials & Design
Appropriate fixation is critical for mandibular fracture healing, as it enhances biomechanical stability. This study assessed the impact of fixation techniques and bone plate designs on angle mandible fractures, aiming to optimize healing processes and ...

Finite Element Analysis of Titanium-Reinforced Polyetheretherketone Fracture Plating in Long Bones

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2013
The present study uses finite element analysis (FEA) to compare an original long bone plate design consisting of a titanium alloy reinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) biomaterial with fracture plates made from a standard titanium alloy.

A mechanical study of personalised Ti6Al4V tibial fracture fixation plates with grooved surface by finite element analysis

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2021
Low shape matching and high stress shielding rates between bone plate and human bone are not conducive to the primary healing of fracture. In this study, taking the fracture site of the lower one‐third of human tibia as an application case, six types of ...

Topology optimization and biomechanical evaluation of bone plates for tibial bone fractures considering bone healing

open access: yesVirtual and Physical Prototyping
Implant designs highly influence their biomechanical performances when fixed with load-bearing long bone fractures. In this research work, the topology optimisation technique was used to obtain different shapes and designs of the bone plates according to

Biomechanical in vitro evaluation of three stable internal fixation techniques used in sagittal osteotomy of the mandibular ramus: a study in sheep mandibles

open access: yesJournal of Applied Oral Science, 2012
Among the osteotomies performed in orthognathic surgery, the sagittal osteotomy of the mandibular ramus (SOMR) is the most common, allowing a great range of movements and stable internal fixation (SIF), therefore eliminating the need of maxillomandibular

A new adhesive technique for internal fixation in midfacial surgery

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2008
Background The current surgical therapy of midfacial fractures involves internal fixation in which bone fragments are fixed in their anatomical positions with osteosynthesis plates and corresponding screws until bone healing is complete.

Deterministic Adjustable Bone Plate Design [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Devices, 2012
Fracture of the mandible is a common injury associated with facial trauma. Close to 50% of patients admitted to the hospital require surgery to restore normal anatomy and function, often with a period of jaw immobilization to allow formation of a bony union between the fracture halves [1].

Variation in Lateral Plate Quality in Threespine Stickleback from Fresh, Brackish and Marine Water: A Micro-Computed Tomography Study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
INTRODUCTION:It is important to understand the drivers leading to adaptive phenotypic diversity within and among species. The threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) has become a model system for investigating the genetic and phenotypic responses

Treatment of proximal patellar tendon rupture with custom-made anchor-like plate and suture: cases report and literature review

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
We reported 2 cases of patellar tendon rupture at the lower pole of the patella. For patellar tendon rupture, simple suture fixation has been proved to be inadequate in strength.
