The present study aimed to biomechanically evaluate a novel locking plate intended for osteosynthesis of coronoid fracture compared to mini L-plates and cannulated screws.
Biomechanical tests were performed on a fracture model in synthetic bones. Three groups, each with eight implant-bone-constructs, were analyzed in quasi-static and dynamic tests. Finally, samples were tested destructively for maximum strength.
The mean (SD) highest stiffness was measured for the novel plate [693 (18) N/mm], followed by the mini L-plate [646 (37) N/mm] and the cannulated screws [249 (113) N/mm]. During the cycling testing of the novel plate and the mini L-plate, no failures occurred, although three of the eight samples of cannulated screws failed during the test. The mean (SD) maximum strength during the destructive testing was 1333 (234) N for the novel plate, 1338 (227) N for the mini-L-plate and 459 (56) N for the cannulated screws. No statistical differences were found during the destructive testing between the two plates (p = 0.999), although statistical differences were found between both plates and the cannulated screws (p = 0.000 each).
Osteosynthesis of the coronoid process using the novel plate is mechanically similar to the mini L-plate. Both plates were superior to osteosynthesis with cannulated screws.
本研究旨在对一种用于冠状突骨折骨固定的新型锁定钢板与微型L形钢板和空心螺钉进行生物力学评估。
在合成骨骨折模型上进行生物力学测试。对三组,每组八个植入物-骨结构进行准静态和动态测试。最后,对样本进行破坏性测试以获得最大强度。
新型钢板的平均(标准差)最高刚度为[693(18)N/mm],其次是微型L形钢板[646(37)N/mm]和空心螺钉[249(113)N/mm]。在新型钢板和微型L形钢板的循环测试中,未发生失效,尽管八个空心螺钉样本中有三个在测试过程中失效。在破坏性测试中,新型钢板的平均(标准差)最大强度为1333(234)N,微型L形钢板为1338(227)N,空心螺钉为459(56)N。在破坏性测试中,两种钢板之间未发现统计学差异(p = 0.999),尽管两种钢板与空心螺钉之间均发现统计学差异(p均为0.000)。
使用新型钢板进行冠状突的骨固定在力学上与微型L形钢板相似。两种钢板均优于空心螺钉骨固定。
