Abstract

In this presentation an integrated approach on the simulation of osseointegration in the boneimplant interface is outlined. Besides the consistent combination of computational bone remodelling simulation and established medical imaging techniques, a new model refinement in terms of a bioactive interface theory is introduced, which enables the simulation of bone ingrowth in rough coated uncemented implants. Under consideration of seven physiological loads of daily motion the bone-implant relative micromotion in a soft tissue region around the endoprosthesis is investigated. As the micromotions are an important factor for osseointegration, because excessive micromotion leads to apposition of fibrous tissue, they are considered for the simulation of osseointegration. Results for different parameter constellations, regarding thickness and stiffness of bone-implant interface layer, are compared and the ingrowth for different configurations is predicted. With these results conclusions can be made about the stability of prosthesis in the host bone, which is an important factor for the clinical success of the treatment.
