Finite element analysis of pelvic reconstruction using fibular transplantation fixed with rod-screw system after type Ⅰ resection
(0) The purpose of this study is to investigate the stability and the stress distribution of pelvic reconstruction using fibular transplantation combined with rod-screw system fixation after type Ⅰ resection. A total pelvic finite-element model including the lumbar-sacral spine, proximal femur was constructed. Threedimensional finite element models of different implants including fibula, rod and screw were constructed using ways of solid modeling. Then various reconstructed finite element models were assembled with different finite element implant model and type Ⅰ resected pelvic finite element model. The load of 500 N was imposed vertically onto the superior surface of L3 vertebra body,and the pelvis was fixed in bilateral leg standing positions. Finiteelement analysis was performed to account for the stress distribution on the bones and implants. The pelvis displacement of the different rod-screw fixation methods and the maximum equivalent stress (max EQV) on all nodes and element were figured out to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different reconstructive methods. Stress concentration was found in the fibula after force loading if the internal fixation were not used. After the internal fixation was implanted, stress concentration in the fibula was decreased. Stress concentration was also found in the implants, especially in the connection sites between screw and rod. The best stable fixation method after fibula transplantation is L5S1HR (the double rods plus L5-S1 pedicle screws and ilium screws fixation). According to the stability and stress concentration, the method of L5-S1HR fixation combined with fibula transplantation is better than other fixation methods in pelvic reconstruction after type Ⅰ resection.
