Abstract

Abstract Objective To investigate and evaluate the biomechanical behaviour of a novel bone cement screw in the minimally invasive treatment of Kummell's disease (KD) by finite element (FE) analysis. Methods A validated finite element model of healthy adult thoracolumbar vertebrae T12-L2 was given the osteoporotic material properties and the part of the middle bone tissue of the L1 vertebral body was removed to make it wedge-shaped. Based on these, FE model of KD was established. The FE model of KD was repaired and treated with three options: pure percutaneous vertebroplasty (Model A), novel unilateral cement screw placement (Model B), novel bilateral cement screw placement (Model C). Range of motion (ROM), maximum Von-Mises stress of T12 inferior endplate and bone cement, relative displacement of bone cement, and stress distribution of bone cement screws of three postoperative models and intact model in flexion and extension, as well as lateral bending and rotation were analyzed and compared. Results The relative displacements of bone cement of Model B and C were similar in all actions studied, and both were smaller than that of Model A. The minimum value of relative displacement of bone cement is 0.0733 mm in the right axial rotation of Model B. The maximum Von-Mises stress in T12 lower endplate and bone cement was in Model C. The maximum Von-Mises stress of bone cement screws in Model C was less than that in Model B, and it was the most substantial in right axial rotation, which is 34%. There was no substantial difference in ROM of the three models. Conclusion The novel bone cement screw can effectively reduce the relative displacement of bone cement by improving the stability of local cement. Among them, novel unilateral cement screw placement can obtain better fixation effect, and the impact on the biomechanical environment of vertebral body is less than that of novel bilateral cement screw placement, which provides a reference for minimally invasive treatment of KD in clinical practice.
