Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease, with the knee being the most commonly affected joint. It is usually found in elder population, affecting more than a third of the people aged over 65 years old. Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the most sati ...
Today neuromuscular simulations are used in several fields, such as diagnostics and planing of surgery, to get a deeper understanding of the musculoskeletal system. During the last year, new models and datasets have been presented which can provide us with ...
Computational models are a current way to study specific behavior of healthy or pathological tissue or the mechanics of joints. Simulating the native anatomical structures and kinematics are two of the most important tasks to achieve reliable results. It i ...
Ligament balancing in total knee arthroplasty may have an important influence on joint stability and prosthesis lifetime. In order to provide quantitative information and assistance during ligament balancing, a device that intraoperatively measures knee jo ...
Ce travail a pour but de mieux comprendre la biomécanique des prothèses de genou. En particulier, on s'intéressera à l'effet de la congruence des surfaces articulaires (tibia-fémur) sur la stabilité (translation antéropostérieure) du genou prothétique. Une ...
Background. Intra-articular techniques (single and double bundles) are the most widely used procedures for the anterior cruciate lig- ament reconstruction. Lemaire introduced in 1967 the extra-articular techniques, and combined intra-articular and extra-ar ...
Mobile-bearing total knee arthroplasty has potential advantages over fixed- bearing prostheses that may lead to an improvement of the range of motion and inferior long-term polyethylene wear. However, the potential disadvantages include the dislocation of ...
In orthopaedics, outcome evaluation is currently recognized as a major challenge to improve the knowledge both about injuries and treatments. For anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, various evaluation tools are available for routine uses: clinical ex ...
The aim of this study was to develop an ambulatory system for the three-dimensional (3D) knee kinematics evaluation, which can be used outside a laboratory during long-term monitoring. In order to show the efficacy of this ambulatory system, knee function ...
Nowadays, the large majority of the instrumentation for orthopaedic surgery consists of mechanical tools with varying degrees of complexity. To increase the accuracy and the safety of orthopaedic interventions, sensors and computers were recently introduce ...
