Abstract

Loss of anatomical shape of acetabulum under the dysplastic hip arthrosis, presence of defects and segmental bone deficiency in this area cause problems when choosing acetabular cup de­sign.

Objective: a comparative biomechanical evaluation of sta­bility of pressing cup fixation and screw in terms of acetabulum segmental defect in patients with dysplastic coxarthrosis for ar­throplasty.

Methods: we developed a simplified geometric hexa­decimal hip model with defects of segmental ter circuit 30°, 60°, 90° and 120°; and finite-element model of «bone – cup – insert – head implant» and estimated stress-strain distribution under axial load of 1000 N.

Results: in the case of pressing cups and screw fixation, provided segmental defect up to 30°, the maxi­mum stress in the bone bed is close to that of a healthy joint. This provides a higher quality cup screws initial stability. Given seg­mental defects of acetabulum 60°, 120° and 90° to reduce stress-strain distribution in bones must perform free plastic and bone screws to apply the cup. Use of pressing cups, with segmental defects over 60° is problematic.

Conclusions: both types of fix­ing cup endoprosthesis provide stress-strain distribution simi­lar to that of a healthy joint. The presence of segmental defect up to 30° did not significantly affect the stiffness and strength of the pelvic bone when using screws cup. Given the short-cir­cuit defect 30° to 60° there is the threat of cracking. If the size of the defect exceeds 60°, significantly increases the risk of de­struction circuit. Cup, pressed as compared to screws, moving under a static load of 1000 H.
