Abstract:Conventional fixation plates permanently attached to the body can lead to complications, such as stress shielding and aseptic loosening, due to their contact with the bone, resulting in bone loss. The contact between these solid fixation plates and the bone surface inhibits blood flow, potentially leading to necrosis at the interface. To overcome this challenge, a porous implant featuring a gyroid lattice structure for humerus bone fixation is proposed. However, designing such an implant typically involves det… Show more
