Optimization of intramedullary nailing by numerical simulation of fracture healingTim Wehner
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Center of Musculoskeletal Research, Ulm University, Helmholtzstrasse 14, 89081 Ulm, Germany
J Orthop Res 30:569-73. 2012..To avoid a prolonged healing time, the nail should be thick, and the annular gap should be as narrow as possible. Alternatively, using steel instead of titanium may also help to avoid a prolonged healing time...- Internal loads in the human tibia during gaitTim Wehner
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, University of Ulm, Germany
Clin Biomech (Bristol, Avon) 24:299-302. 2009..Inverse dynamic musculoskeletal models were successfully used to determine the muscle forces in the lower extremities, however the internal loads expressed as forces and moments along the human tibia during gait have not been reported... - Influence of the fixation stability on the healing time--a numerical study of a patient-specific fracture healing processTim Wehner
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Ulm University, Helmholtzstrasse 14, Ulm, Germany
Clin Biomech (Bristol, Avon) 25:606-12. 2010..The aim of this study was to simulate a patient-specific human healing process using a numerical algorithm and to retrospectively analyse the influence of the fixation stability on the healing time... - Internal forces and moments in the femur of the rat during gaitTim Wehner
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Ulm University, Helmholtzstrasse 14, Ulm, Germany
J Biomech 43:2473-9. 2010..Knowledge of the internal loads in the femur of the rat allows adjustment of the biomechanical properties of fixation devices in fracture healing studies to the desired interfragmentary movement... - Improvement of the shear fixation stability of intramedullary nailingTim Wehner
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Ulm University, Germany
Clin Biomech (Bristol, Avon) 26:147-51. 2011..The aims of this study were to simulate the shear interfragmentary movement during gait for a human tibia treated with intramedullary nailing and to investigate if this movement could be lowered by implant design modifications... - C5aR-antagonist significantly reduces the deleterious effect of a blunt chest trauma on fracture healingStefan Recknagel
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Center of Musculoskeletal Research, University of Ulm, Helmholtzstr 14, 89081 Ulm, Germany
J Orthop Res 30:581-6. 2012..C5a could possibly represent a target to prevent delayed bone healing in patients with severe trauma... - Metaphyseal fracture healing follows similar biomechanical rules as diaphyseal healingLutz Claes
Center of Musculoskeletal Research, Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany
J Orthop Res 29:425-32. 2011..It is therefore proposed that metaphyseal bone healing follows similar biomechanical principles as diaphyseal healing... - Experimental blunt chest trauma impairs fracture healing in ratsStefan Recknagel
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Center of Musculoskeletal Research, University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany
J Orthop Res 29:734-9. 2011..In confirming the clinical evidence, this study reports for the first time that a blunt chest trauma considerably impaired bone healing, possibly via the interaction of the induced systemic inflammation with local inflammatory processes... - Fracture healing in mice under controlled rigid and flexible conditions using an adjustable external fixatorViktoria Röntgen
Institute of Orthopaedic Research and Biomechanics, Center of Musculoskeletal Research, University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany
J Orthop Res 28:1456-62. 2010..In summary, flexible external fracture fixation of the mouse femur led to delayed fracture healing in comparison to a more rigid situation...
