摘要:

目的: 建立可膨胀椎间融合器(EVIFC)和第4、5腰椎的有限元模型,分析EVIFC植入对腰椎生物力学的影响,为EVIFC的临床应用提供依据。方法: 根据健康成年男性腰椎CT扫描数据建立正常第4、5腰椎有限元模型,在此模型上模拟腰4-5椎间盘轻度退变,在三维模型上植入EVIFC。在屈伸、侧弯和旋转的载荷下,分析腰椎模型置入EVIFC前后的稳定性、椎间盘压力、终板压力及小关节载荷变化。结果: EVIFC的置入减少了退变节段终板、髓核和小关节的应力。屈伸时,腰4-5椎体退变模型的终板及髓核平均压力分别是6.1620和0.2016MPa,小关节载荷是32.8N;植入EVIFC后其数值分别是3.526、0.107MPa和8.5N。侧弯及旋转载荷结果一致。对于邻近的腰椎节段,与退变模型比较,植入EVIFC后,腰4-5终板和髓核应力值均有所减小,但其相邻节段纤维环的应力值均有所增加。结论: EVIFC对退变腰椎能起到良好的稳定效果,可满足人体生物力学需求,是一种适宜的新型腰椎融合器。

Abstract:

Objective: To establish the expended vertebra interbody fusion cage (EVIFC) and finite element analysis of L4-5 and to analyze the influence of EVIFC insertion in the biomechanical parameters of lumbar spine,and to provide the biomechanical evidence for its clinical application. Methods: According to the umbar CT scan data of healthy adult male people, the normal L4-5 lumbar spine finite element model was established.In this model,the L4-5 intervertebral disc slight degeneration was simulated,and the 3D model was implanted with EVIFC.Under flexion,lateral bending,and rotation loading conditions,the stability of lumbar spine model before and after EVIFC implantion,the pressure of the intervertebral disc,endplate pressure and small joint loading changes were analyzed. Results: After the insertion of EVIFC,the stress in end-plate,nucleus and small joint of the L4-5 level was decreased. In flexion,the mean pressure values in the end-plate and nucleus of the degeneration model were 6.162 0 and 0.201 6 MPa,and the small joint load was 32.8 N.After implantation of EVIFC ,they were 3.526,0.107 MPa,and 8.5 N,respectively.The consistent results occurred in another two loading conditions,As for the adjacent levels,compared with degeneration model,the stress in end-plate and nucleus were decreased at the L4-5 level.The mean stress in the annulus of L4-5 was increased slightly. Conclusion: EVIFC has effect on the stability of slightly degenerative lumber spine which can meet the needs of human biomechanics,and it is a suitable and new lumbar fusion device.
