An in vitro study of the role of implant positioning on ulnohumeral articular contact in distal humeral hemiarthroplasty

Abstract:

Purpose: To investigate the effect of implant positioning on ulnohumeral contact using patient-specific distal humeral (DH) implants.

Methods: Seven reverse-engineered DH implants were manufactured based on computed tomography scans of their osseous geometry. Native ulnae were paired with corresponding native humeri and custom DH implants in a loading apparatus. The ulna was set at 90° of flexion and the humeral component (either native bone or reverse-engineered implant)...
