Evaluation and robotic simulation of the glenohumeral joint

The shoulder is the joint with the largest range of motion in the human body. It is composed of three articulations, the glenohumeral articulation providing about two thirds of its mobility which is, also the most complex and fragile of the three. For this ...

Flexure-based mecano-optical multi-degree-of-freedom transducers dedicated to medical force sensing instruments

Sebastian Krzysztof Fifanski

This thesis develops novel multi-degrees-of-freedom flexure-based force sensors by exploiting white light interferometry. Fabry-Pérot interferometry measurement has nanometric accuracy which yields sub milli-Newton force sensing accuracy. Such force sensin ...

Patellar bone strain after total knee arthroplasty is correlated with bone mineral density and body mass index

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Philippe Büchler, Elham Taghizadeh, Adeliya Latypova

Patella-related complications after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remain a major clinical concern. Previous studies have suggested that increased postoperative patellar bone strain could be related to such complications, but there is limited knowledge on p ...

Relationships between cartilage thickness and subchondral bone mineral density in non-osteoarthritic and severely osteoarthritic knees: In vivo concomitant 3D analysis using CT arthrography

Julien Favre, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli

Objective: To test whether subchondral bone mineral density (sBMD) and cartilage thickness (CTh) of femoral condyles are correlated in knees without and with severe medial femorotibial osteoarthritis (OA), using a subregional analysis with computerized tom ...

Knitted Silk-Collagen Scaffold Incorporated with Ligament Stem/Progenitor Cells Sheet for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Osteoarthritis Prevention

Dominique Pioletti, Ting Zhu, Weiliang Shen, Jiayun Huang

Current surgical management of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture still remains an intractable challenge in ACL regeneration due to the weak self-healing capability of ACL. Inadequate cell numbers and vascularization within the articular cavity contr ...

Inconsistent relationship between body weight/body mass index prior to total knee arthroplasty and the 12-year survival

Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli

Background: The primary hypothesis was that body weight (BW) and body mass index (BMI) significantly impact the long-term survival rate after implantation of a mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). ...

Efficient decellularization of equine tendon with preserved biomechanical properties and cytocompatibility for human tendon surgery indications

Dominique Pioletti, Nathalie Hirt-Burri, Lee Ann Laurent-Applegate, Anthony Grognuz, Cédric Peneveyre, Jens Antons, Pierre-Arnaud Aeberhard

Chronic and acute tendon injuries are frequent afflictions, for which treatment is often long and unsatisfactory. When facing extended injuries, matrices and scaffolds with sufficient biomechanical properties are required for surgical repair and could addi ...

Sensory feedback restoration in leg amputees improves walking speed, metabolic cost and phantom pain

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Giacomo Valle, Federica Barberi, Dario Bortolotti

Conventional leg prostheses do not convey sensory information about motion or interaction with the ground to aboveknee amputees, thereby reducing confidence and walking speed in the users that is associated with high mental and physical fatigue(1-4). The l ...
