摘要:
This study's purpose was to investigate the biomechanical effects of varus and valgus knee deformities in different degrees on the acetabulum's weight-bearing dome. We collected six lower extremity specimens from three fresh adult male cadavers, including the L5 vertebral body, pelvis, bilateral hips, bilateral knees and lower leg sections. We visually examined all specimens and then X-rayed them to exclude the presence of hip and knee pathology. We adjusted the tibiofemoral angle to 180 degrees (knee varus at 10 degrees, Group A), 190 degrees (knee varus at 20 degrees, Group B), 160 degrees (knee valgus at 10 degrees, Group C) and 150 degrees (knee valgus at 20 degrees, Group D) using the external fixator, respectively, fixed them, respectively, and then monitored them through the above 3D laser scanning imager. We found the acetabulum's weight-bearing dome area, stress and stress distribution by loading and coloring on the pressure-sensitive film. We measured them using a FPD-305 density meter and FPD-306 pressure converter. We compared the areas, average stresses and peak stresses of the acetabulum's weight-bearing dome between groups B and D and group A, respectively. The differences between groups B and D had no significance. Compared to group A's area, average stress and peak stress, the areas of groups C and E decreased, and their average stresses and peak stresses increased significantly. The differences between groups B and C and groups D and E were also significant. Due to different degrees of knee varus and valgus angles, the areas of the weight-bearing acetabulum dome, average stress and peak stress are different. The knee varus and valgus at 20 degrees were statistically significant, which may be the key pathogenesis of hip arthritis.
