  4. 43. FE Modelling Of Two Femur Fixation Implants

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetslära

    Author : Ali Arsiwala; Vatsal Shukla; [2021]
    Keywords : FEM; Femur; Image Segmentation; Material Modelling; Recon Implant; Antegrade Implant; Atypical Femoral Fracture; Intermedullary Nail;

    Abstract : In the pool of women over the age of 50, the likeliness of an atypical fracture increase drastically, partly due to osteoporosis. With a pre-existing implant in the femur bone, inserted due to a prior atypical fracture, treating a later femoral neck fracture is complex and risky. READ MORE
