Über die Bedeutung der Position der Endoprothesenpfanne aus biomechanischer und klinischer Sicht-Vorschlag einer Klassifizierung - Remarks on the Biomechanical and Clinical Significance of the Positioning of the Acetabular Cup - Proposal for a Classification
Abstract:The success of an artificial joint replacement over the long term depends, for the most part, on the optimal positioning of the acetabular cup. We investigated this thought in terms of biomechanical and clinical considerations, and, on the basis of a proposed classification, attempted to ascertain the best possible position. On the basis of our analysis we determined that the ideal position is an angle of 35 degrees, with a tolerance range of 25 degrees to 45 degrees. Here, the load on the polyethylene is low,… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
