Cement stress predictions after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty are correlated with preoperative glenoid bone quality

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Raphaël Rodolphe Obrist

Hypothesis: We hypothesized that biomechanical parameters typically associated with glenoid implant failure after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) would be correlated with preoperative glenoid bone quality. Methods: We developed an objective aut ...

Effects of glenoid inclination and acromion index on humeral head translation and glenoid articular cartilage strain

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt

Previous clinical studies have reported associations between glenoid inclination (GI), the acromion index (AI), and the critical shoulder angle (CSA) on the one hand and the occurrence of glenohumeral osteoarthritis and supraspinatus tendon tears on the ot ...

Alignment of collagen fiber in knitted silk scaffold for functional massive rotator cuff repair

Dominique Pioletti, Ting Zhu, Weiliang Shen, Jiayun Huang

Rotator cuff tear is one of the most common types of shoulder injuries, often resulting in pain and physical debilitation. Allogeneic tendon-derived decellularized matrices do not have appropriate pore size and porosity to facilitate cell infiltration, whi ...

A study on the density shoulder formation in the SOL of H-mode plasmas

Nicola Vianello

The term "shoulder formation" refers to an increase of the density decay length in the scrape-off layer (SOL) observed in many tokamaks during L-mode operation when a density threshold is reached. Recent experiments in ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) and JET have show ...

A framework for forward-dynamics simulation of the human shoulder

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Müllhaupt, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Ehsan Sarshari

A vast majority of the available biomechanical models of the human shoulder has been developed based on inverse dynamics, e.g. [1,2]. This imposes a number of limitations on their application. For instance, the glenohumeral joint is approximated as an idea ...

Micromotion and fluid flow around cementless femoral components in total hip arthroplasty

Valérie Hélène Emilie Malfroy Camine

Cementless total hip arthroplasty is a highly successful and reliable procedure to restore joint function and reduce pain in patients with severe osteoarthritis. Nevertheless, despite the technical advances over the last decades in the development of cemen ...

Effect of Patient Specific Parameters on Degenerative Shoulder Diseases

Christoph Anselm Engelhardt

Osteoarthritis and rotator cuff tears are two common and wide spread shoulder diseases leading to significant restrictions in the daily life of the affected. The pathogenesis is not fully understood yet. A chronic process triggered by multiple causes is as ...

Importance of a three-dimensional measure of humeral head subluxation in osteoarthritic shoulders

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Julien Ston

Hypothesis: During total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), humeral head subluxation may be difficult to manage. Furthermore, there is a risk for postoperative recurrence of subluxation, affecting the outcome of TSA. An accurate evaluation of the subluxation is ...

Comparison of an EMG-based and a stress-based method to predict shoulder muscle forces

Dominique Pioletti, Philippe Müllhaupt, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, David Ingram, Valérie Hélène Emilie Malfroy Camine, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt

The estimation of muscle forces in musculoskeletal shoulder models is still controversial. Two different methods are widely used to solve the indeterminacy of the system: electromyography (EMG)-based methods and stress-based methods. The goal of this work ...
