The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of xenogenic bone plate system (equine bone) using a three-dimensional finite element ulna fracture model. The model was used to calculate the Von Mises stress (VMS) and stress distribution in fracture healing periods with metallic bone plate and xenogenic bone plate systems, which are installed while the canine patient is standing. Bone healing rate (BHR) (0%) and maximum VMS of the xenogenic plate was similar to the yield strength of equine bone (125 MPa). VMS at the ulna and fracture zones were higher with the xenogenic bone plate than with the metallic bone plate at BHRs of 0% and 1%. Stress distributions in fracture zone were higher with the xenogenic bone plate than the metallic bone plate. This study results indicate that the xenogenic bone plate may be considered more beneficial for callus formation and bone healing than the metallic bon plate. Xeonogenic bone plate and screw applied in clinical treatment of canines may provide reduced stress shielding of fractures during healing.

Bone plate는 골절된 뼈의 골 유합을 지지하기 위해서 정형외과, 신경외과, 성형외과 및 치과 등에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 bone plate는 대부분 금속으로 제작되어 있어 장기간 이식에 따른 부식 및 천연골 강도저하 등으로 인해 1~2년 후 재수술을 해야 하는 문제점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는이런 금속 bone plate의 단점을 개선하고자 생체적합성이 우수한 생분해성 고분자 bone plate를 제작하였다. 사용된 고분자는 생체적합성과 생분해성이우수한 PVA(polyvinly alcohol)와 강도를 유지하기 위한 PMMA(poly methyl methacrylate)를 사용였다. Electrospinning 법으로 PVA와 PMMA fibrous mat를 제작하여 각 mat를 적층시킨 후 열압착을 하여 강도를 증가시킨 PMMA/PVA Mutlilayer bone plate을 제작하였다. 제작된 PMMA/PVA Mutlilayer bone plate의 생체적합성 평가를 위해 MTT assay, 생분해 특성을 관찰하기 위해 Micro-CT와 SBF(simulated body fluid) 내에서의 용해도를 관찰하였다. 또한조골세포의 부착과 분화에 미치는 영향을 SEM(scanning electron microscope)을통해 관찰하였고, 조골세포의 유전자 발현에 미치는 영향을 RT-PCR을통해 확인하였다.

Purpose: Absorbable bone fixation materials for operation of facial bone fracture are composed of poly- lactic acid(PLA) & poly-glycolic acid(PGA). These materials are absorbed after facial bone healing period. Therefore, these materials are harmless in human body. But because of it's radioopacity, the number and the location of the materials are not checked in follow-up X-ray examination. We studied absorbable bone fixation materials checked radiological examination. So, we made the absorbable plate composed of PLA, Hydroxyapatite (HA) and Gold(Au). Methods: Plate 1 was consisted of pure PLA. Plate 2 was consisted of PLA(50%) and HA(50%). Plate 3 - 7 were consisted of PLA(50%), and variable composition of HA & Au. The ratio of Au was as following. From the plate 3 to plate 7, the Au ratio was 1%, 5%, 10%, 17%, and 25%, respectively. Total 3 examinations were used-naked eye examination, simple X-ray examination, and Haunsfield unit of plate in CT examination. Results: Naked eye examination found out that the color of plate 1 was most white. As the Au ratio increases, the color of plate was getting close to khaki color. the radioopacity of plate 2 was similar cortical bone of face in simple X-ray. The Haunsfield unit of cortical bone of face was 1000 HU. Haunsfield unit of titanium plate was 2900 HU. Haunsfield unit of plate 1 through plate 7 were -242, 1489, 1776, 3052, 3092, 3095, and 3095, respectively. Conclusion: Radioopacity of plate 2 was similar to cortical bone of face. In CT examination, Hanusfield unit of plate 2 was similar to Hanusfield unit of cortical bone of face. Hanusfield unit of plate 4 - 7 were similar to Hanusfield unit of titanium plate. So to trace bone fixation materials after facial bone surgery, the best ratio of Au is about 1 - 5%. If this study is applied to facial bone surgery, radiologic follow up would be easy after facial bone surgery.

The purpose of this study was to determine the cause and risk factors of removing bone plateby investigating and analyzing 359 patients who underwent reduction of fracture or orthognathic surgery with bone plate insertion over the past 3 years. Patients were evaluated with respect to age, smoking status, reason for insertion of plates, the numbers of inserted plates, sites of insertion, time between insertion and removal, reasons for removal of plates. The removal rate of bone plates was 33.1%. Of these, 17.0% of patients had clinical symptoms which led to remove plates. The removal rate of men was 29.9% and the rate of women was 39.2%. There were high removal rates from less than 20s (45.8%) and 20s (34.4%) those who are relatively young age group. On the other hand people in their 50s had a removal rate of 27.8% which was higher than those in their 60s with a rate of 20.7%. The removal rate of bone plate inserted into the mandible was 33.5%, and the removal rate of bone plate inserted into the maxilla was 34.7%. The mean period between the insertion and removal of bone plate was 10.9 months. The main reason for the removal of bone plate was the patient's requirement (44.5%). The most common cause of clinical symptoms was infection (22.7%). Infection was manifested within about a year and led to the plate being removed. Therefore, lowering the possibility of infection after surgery could decrease the removal rate of bone plate.

Clinically, proximal bone resorption in the femur is frequently seen postoperatively on the follow up XI-rays after total hip replacement (THR). We developed the finite element model of cementless THR. The model is two dimensional side plate model, whereby the three dimensional structural integrity of the bone can be accounted for by a separate two dimensional mesh, a side plate. The subject of this article is the development and application of this two dimensional side plate FEM to study the reverse effect of the various degree of bone resorption of femur after THR. The results of this study indicates that 1) two dimensional side plate model is good and simple alternative to complex three dimensional model and 2) the severity of the proximal bone resorption has the effect of more increasing stress on the cortex at the level of femoral stem tip.

목적: 대퇴골에서 골 종양은 주로 근위 전자부와 원위 간단부에 발생한다. 그러나 대퇴골은 체중부하와 연관하여 종양의 크기에 따라서는 병적 골절을 유발하게 된다. 그러므로 종양제거후 대퇴골의 해부학적 특성을 고려한 angled blade plate로 보완해 준다면 생역학적 측면에서 그 예후를 훨씬 개선할 수 있을 것 여겨진다. 대상 및 방법: 1991년 10월부터 2005년 4월까지, 대퇴골에 발생한 골 종양을 제거하고 Blade Plate로 보완해준 환자 16명 17예를 대상으로 하였다. 종양제거 후 11예에서 골 이식으로, 6예에서 골 세멘트로 채워 넣었으며, 모든 예에서 angled blade plate를 사용하여 내고정을 시행하였다. 결과: 평균 추시 기간은 16명 환자(17예)에서 55.5개월 이었다. 시술 후 금속에 관련된 실패는 없었다. 종양의 재발로 인하여 재수술이 4예에서 있었으며 재수술전까지 내고정은 유지되었다. 결론: angled blade plate는 종양수술 후 이식 골의 결합이 이루어질 때까지 그 부위를 골절로부터 보호하며, 골 세멘트를 사용한 경우는 골 세멘트와 골조직과의 취약한 이음새를 골절로부터 보호하였다.
