RESUMEN

Objective: This study presents an innovative articular fossa prosthesis generated by the envelope surface of condyle movement, and compares its mandible movements, muscle activities, and joint reaction forces with two temporomandibular joint (TMJ) prostheses using multibody musculoskeletal simulation. Methods: A healthy 23-year-old female was recruited for this study. Cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) was performed to reconstruct the mandibular bone geometry. A customized TMJ fossa prosthesis was designed based on the subject-specific envelope surface of condyle movement (ESCM). Mandibular kinematics and jaw-closing muscle electromyography (EMG) were simultaneously recorded during maximum jaw opening-closing movements. To validate our prosthesis design, a mandibular musculoskeletal model was established using flexible multibody dynamics and the obtained kinematics and EMG data. The Biomet fossa prosthesis and the ellipsoidal fossa prosthesis designed by imitating the lower limb prostheses were used for comparison. Simulations were performed to analyze the effects of different fossa prostheses on jaw opening-closing motions, mandibular muscle activation, and contact forces. Results: The maximum opening displacement for the envelope-based fossa prosthesis was greater than those for Biomet and ellipsoidal prostheses (36 mm, 35 mm, and 33 mm, respectively). The mandibular musculoskeletal model with ellipsoidal prosthesis led to dislocation near maximal jaw opening. Compared to Biomet, the envelope-based fossa reduced the digastric and lateral pterygoid activation at maximal jaw opening. It also reduced the maximal resistance to condylar sliding on the intact side by 63.2 N. Conclusion: A customized TMJ fossa prosthesis was successfully developed using the ESCM concept. Our study of musculoskeletal multibody modeling has highlighted its advantages and potential. The artificial fossa design successfully achieved a wider condylar range of motion. It also reduced the activation of jaw opening muscles on the affected side and resistance on the intact side. This study showed that an ESCM-based approach may be useful for optimizing TMJ fossa prostheses design.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differences between temporomandibular articular fossa bone surface and the envelope surface of the mandibular condyle movement. METHODS: Thirty-four healthy adults underwent skull base and mandible scans using CBCT and performed mandibular border movement using the mandibular movement recording system. Landmarks of the fossa and tubercle were indicated and distance and angle parameters were measured on the 3D models reconstructed from the CBCT. The condyle movement envelope surfaces were formed according to models reconstructed from CBCT and the mandibular movement trajectory using computer simulation. The highest and lowest points of the envelope surface were indicated to create parameters. The data were analysed using a paired t test in SPSS (version 24.0, IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). RESULTS: The mandibular fossa bone surface was statistically different to the envelope surface for the height of the first peak of the envelope surface (3.280 ± 1.319 mm) and depth of the mandibular fossa (6.338 ± 2.389 mm) (the ratio was 51.75%), the height of the second peak of the envelope surface (1.463 ± 0.745 mm) and the height of the tubercle (2.000 ± 0.968 mm) (the ratio was 73.15%), and the downwards angle of the envelope surface (25.933 ± 7.539 degrees) and the posterior slope angle of the articular tubercle (35.059 ± 5.224 degrees) (the ratio was 73.97%). CONCLUSION: The downwards angle of the envelope surface was statistically significantly smaller than the posterior slope angle of the articular tubercle, suggesting that the condyle movement is flatter than the mandibular fossa bone surface.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical outcomes of a combined unilateral intraoral and extraoral reduction approach in the treatment of anterior temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation. METHODS: Postural muscular chains were utilized in the biomechanical analysis of stomatognathic systems for improving TMJ repositioning approaches. A total of 87 patients with anterior TMJ dislocation were included in the present study. A combined unilateral intraoral and extraoral reduction approach was applied, and the clinical effects were evaluated. RESULTS: Biomechanical analysis reveal that reflexive contrac-tion of the maxillary muscle group was blocked sufficiently during the combined unilateral intraoral and extraoral reduction process. All dislocated TMJs were set successfully and efficiently with few complications. CONCLUSIONS: Combined unilateral intraoral and extraoral reduction approach is an effective, convenient, and minimally invasive way to treat anterior TMJ dislo-cations.

RESUMEN

Osteonecrosis of the talus (ONT) may severely affect the function of the ankle joint. Most orthopedists believe that ONT should be treated at an early stage, but a concise and effective surgical treatment is lacking. In this study, porous titanium alloy rods were prepared and implanted into the tali of sheep with early-stage ONT (IM group). The curative effect of the rods was compared to treatment by core decompression (DC group). No significant differences in bone reconstruction were observed between the two groups at 1 month after intervention. After 3 months, the macroscopic view of gross specimens of the IM group showed ordinary contours, but the specimens of the DC group showed obvious partial bone defects and cartilage degeneration. Quantitative analysis of the reconstructed trabeculae by micro-CT and histological study suggested that the curative effect of the IM group was superior to that of the DC group at 3 months after intervention. These favorable short-term results of the implantation of porous titanium alloy rods into the tali of sheep with early-stage ONT may provide insight into an innovative surgical treatment for ONT.
