Inclusion of Muscle Forces Affects Finite Element Prediction of Compression Screw Pullout but Not Fatigue Failure in a Custom Pelvic Implant

Inclusion of Muscle Forces Affects Finite Element Prediction of Compression Screw Pullout but Not Fatigue Failure in a Custom Pelvic Implant

Custom implants used for pelvic reconstruction in pelvic sarcoma surgery face a high complication rate due to mechanical failures of fixation screws. Consequently, patient-specific finite element (FE) models have been employed to analyze custom pelvic implant durability. However, muscle forces have...
