Design of Fracture Fixation Plate for Necessary and Sufficient Bone Stress Shielding

Abstract: The objective of treating the fractured bone is to achieve painless functioning of the bone and undisturbed healing at the fracture. Internal fixation by stiff bone-plate is one of the standard methods to achieve these objectives. Recently, there is considerable interest in the usage of compliant plates to enhance bone healing with reduced stress shielding. Herein, first an analytical solution is developed to determine screw forces in the bone-plate assembly that conforms the plate and the bone under bending l… Show more

“…At the 50% healed level, as additional callus is generated at the fracture interface, the callus bone becomes able to take on the compressive stress. At this stage, the callus modulus is assumed to be 10 GPa (500 times larger than its value in the first week) [5]. The bone and plate behave as a composite plate, causing the stress at the fracture site to increase and shifting the neutral axis towards the bone domain.…”

“…The plate and screw internal fixation technique has been improved with the presence of new biocompatible rigid materials such as stainless steel, cobalt chromium, titanium and composite materials [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. However, bone osteoporosis is often found under these rigid plates, and bone re-fracture may occur after the plate is removed.…”

“…1 and the type, number, and placement of the bone screws are considered as design factors. 13,19,20 In the current study, we analyzed the thickness, width, and length of the bone plate and the effective diameter and type of bone screws as the design factors influencing fractured bone fusion. Additionally, the size of an implant inserted in a body is very important, as it greatly influences the operation time, the suturing convenience of the incised site, and the amount of bleeding during the operation.…”
