To compare contact stresses between Attune® and PFC Sigma® total knee arthroplasty (TKA) implants in the presence of knee malalignment.
Maximum contact stress after finite element analysis were compared during standing, walking, and stair climbing in 0°, 2.5° and 5°varus/valgus knee alignments.
The percentage increase in contact stress was highest during walking with PFC Sigma® in 5° varus (238.5%), standing with Attune® in 5° valgus (127.2%), and standing with Attune® in 2.5° valgus (107.8%).
The newer Attune® design may be associated with higher maximum contact stresses and increased risk of wear and implant failure.
比较存在膝关节对线不良时Attune®和PFC Sigma®全膝关节置换(TKA)植入物之间的接触应力。
在0°、2.5°和5°内翻/外翻膝关节对线情况下,比较站立、行走和爬楼梯时有限元分析后的最大接触应力。
在5°内翻时使用PFC Sigma®行走期间接触应力增加百分比最高(238.5%),在5°外翻时使用Attune®站立期间(127.2%)以及在2.5°外翻时使用Attune®站立期间(107.8%)。
新型的Attune®设计可能与更高的最大接触应力以及磨损和植入物失败风险增加有关。
