Description

Design method of mandible porous implant considering soft tissue attachment and bone growth and porous implant
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of mandible defect repair, in particular to a design method of a mandible porous implant considering soft tissue attachment and bone growth and a porous implant.
Background
The mandible as the facial 1/3 bony framework maintains the jaw face irregular curved surface shape and assists to realize the physiological functions of chewing, swallowing, voice and the like. The mandible is easy to cause segmental defect due to various reasons such as tumor, trauma, inflammatory diseases and the like, different anatomical areas with defect cause different biomechanical characteristics, corresponding functional disorder is caused, and meanwhile, the requirements for repair and reconstruction are different. Mandibular defects, particularly large mandibular defects, can present significant psychological and physiological barriers to the patient, severely impacting the quality of life of the patient, and reconstructing the physiological function and anatomic shape of the defective mandible has been a challenging issue in the field for the last century.
The mandibular implant is an implant which can help a patient to reconstruct the appearance and restore the occlusion function after the mandibular defect. The mandible is functionally reconstructed by applying a modern medical science means, and the restoration body and the residual bone tissues have good biomechanical compatibility while the accurate restoration of the appearance is considered, so that the problems of stability of the occlusion relation, functional restoration and the like are finally achieved. At present, the mandible reconstruction in clinic mainly adopts autologous bone transplantation, the mandible is usually repaired by the autologous bone transplantation by adopting free iliac bones and ribs or fibula with vascular pedicles, skin flap bones have the advantages of stable blood supply, thick and easy matching of blood vessels, rich blood circulation, quick healing and the like, and the vascularized skin flap bones become the most common method for the mandible defect reconstruction. However, the source of autologous bones is very limited, secondary trauma to the bone-taking part is inevitably caused when the materials are taken, the pain of a patient is increased, the treatment time is prolonged, and even complications occur; and the transplanted bone is not easy to shape, is difficult to be used for repairing large-area bone defects, and has an unsatisfactory effect of recovering the occlusion function in the later artificial tooth repair.
Due to the defects of the autologous bone transplantation repair technology, in recent years, with the rapid development of biomaterials and the improvement of the demand of modern medicine, researches on bone replacement biomaterials, namely artificial implants, for repairing the mandibular defects are receiving more and more attention from scholars. Titanium and titanium alloy have good biocompatibility, light weight, high strength ratio, low toxicity and high corrosion resistance, are one of a few materials meeting the requirements of human implantation, and are widely applied to mandibular defect repair.
However, the titanium alloy implant used clinically still has many problems at present, and the biggest problem is that the elastic modulus difference between the titanium alloy and the bone tissue is too large, so that the stress shielding phenomenon is easy to occur, and the repair success rate is influenced. Thus, to avoid stress shielding at the bone-implant interface, when using these materials, the equivalent young's modulus and yield stress must be adjusted, an effective approach is to introduce an adjustable porosity or relative density according to the isotropic materials proposed by Gibson and Ashby. The porous structure material can promote the differentiation and proliferation of osteocytes due to the internal three-dimensional gap structure, and the titanium alloy porous implant body has a good treatment effect clinically. Furthermore, with the development of additive manufacturing techniques, complex geometries can be fabricated from titanium alloys to match the anatomy of the repair site, and porous titanium scaffolds can be constructed that have mechanical properties similar to trabecular bone. However, the titanium alloy porous structure mainly adopts a uniform porous structure constructed by different unit cell units, which not only has a great difference with the actual non-uniform pore structure in the bone tissue, but also has poor mechanical properties.
On the other hand, the current titanium alloy implant is easy to cause complications such as soft tissue perforation and titanium plate exposure in clinical use, and finally causes the failure of implant repair. The exposure of the implant is mainly caused by two reasons: firstly, because the implant does not consider the adhesion growth of soft tissues such as muscles and the like during the design, after the incision is sutured, the tension of the soft tissues covering the implant is overlarge, the soft tissues are tensed and thinned, the soft tissues around the implant contract and deform towards the incision, and the soft tissues cause insufficient blood supply under the large tension; the other is that when the large-area block-shaped implant body is subjected to chewing force stress deformation after restoration, the phenomenon of frequently extruding soft tissues can be inevitably caused, so that the pressure in the soft tissues at the implant body is increased, blood circulation is obstructed, the soft tissues are subjected to necrosis infection, and finally the implant body is exposed.
With the rapid development of modern advanced technology, the digital design and manufacturing technology applied to bone defect repair and personalized titanium stent implantation is more and more mature, and a better clinical application effect is obtained. The method has the advantages that the digital design, simulation and optimization of the operation scheme can be carried out before the operation, the fixed positions of the reconstruction titanium plate and the screw are determined, and the biomechanical property of the implant is optimized. In recent years, topology optimization technology has been increasingly applied to the design of orthopedic implants, and biomechanical analysis is combined to optimize the structures of orthopedic and craniomaxillofacial implants so as to improve the success rate of repair. The application of the computer-assisted technology can obviously improve the biomechanical property of the implant, improve the accuracy of the operation and reduce the adverse reaction after the operation, has wide application prospect and becomes one of indispensable tools in mandible reconstruction.
