Abstract:
BACKGROUND:We sought to investigate the different configurations of Kirschner wires used in distal femur Salter-Harris (SH) type 2 epiphyseal fracture for stabilization after reduction under axial, rotational, and bending forces and to define the biomechanical effects on the epiphyseal plate and the fracture line and decide which was more advantageous. METHODS:The SH type 2 fracture was modeled using design software for four different configurations: cross, cross-parallel, parallel medial, and parallel lateral with two Kirschner wires, and computer-aided numerical analyses of the different configurations after reduction were performed using the finite element method. For each configuration, the mesh process, loading condition (axial, bending, and rotational), boundary conditions, and material models were applied in finite element software, and growth cartilage and von Mises stress values occurring around the Kirschner wire groove were calculated. RESULTS:In growth cartilage, the stresses were highest in the parallel lateral configuration and lowest in the cross configuration. In Kirschner wires, the stresses were highest in the cross configuration and lowest in the cross-parallel and parallel lateral configurations. In the groove between the growth cartilage and the Kirschner wire interface, the stresses were highest in the parallel lateral configuration and lowest in the cross configuration. CONCLUSIONS:The results showed that the cross configuration is advantageous in fixation. In addition, in the SH type 2 epiphyseal fracture, we believe that the fixation shape should not be applied in the lateral configuration.
