Finite Element-Predicted Effects of Screw Configuration in Proximal Humerus Fracture Fixation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Internal fixation with the use of locking plates is the standard surgical treatment for proximal humerus fractures, one of the most common fractures in the elderly. Screw cut-out through weak cancellous bone of the humeral ...
Flexure-Based Locking Plates Can Modulate Interfragmentary Motion in Distal Femur and Diaphyseal Fractures: A Parametric Finite Element Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Axial interfragmentary motion is known to stimulate fracture healing. A mechanically compliant fracture fixation plate incorporating flexures is proposed to provide controlled axial micromotion to long bone ...
