Universidad de Zaragoza Biomechanical assessment and clinical analysis of different intramedullary nailing systems for oblique fractures 2016 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted The aim of this study is to evaluate the fracture union or non-union for a specific patient that presented oblique fractures in tibia and fibula, using a mechanistic-based bone healing model. Normally, this kind of fractures can be treated through an intramedullary nail using two possible configurations that depends on the mechanical stabilisation: static and dynamic. Both cases are simulated under different fracture geometries in order to understand the effect of the mechanical stabilisation on the fracture healing outcome. The results of both simulations are in good agreement with previous clinical experience. From the results, it is demonstrated that the dynamization of the fracture improves healing in comparison with a static or rigid fixation of the fracture. This work shows the versatility and potential of a mechanistic-based bone healing model to predict the final outcome (union, non-union, delayed union) of realistic 3D fractures where even more than one bone is involved. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/DPI2014-53401-C2-1-R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/FP7/286179/EU/Patient-specific predictions for bone treatments/CAD-BONE info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 1.909 2016 ENGINEERING, BIOMEDICAL 41 / 77 = 0.532 2016 Q3 T2 COMPUTER SCIENCE, INTERDISCIPLINARY APPLICATIONS 53 / 105 = 0.505 2016 Q3 T2 0.516 2016 Bioengineering 2016 Q2 Biomedical Engineering 2016 Q2 Medicine (miscellaneous) 2016 Q2 Human-Computer Interaction 2016 Q2 Computer Science Applications 2016 Q2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion (orcid)0000-0002-2901-4188 Pérez, M.
