Contact Mechanics of Anatomic Radial Head Prosthesis: Comparison Between Native Radial Head and Anatomic Radial Head Prostheses in the Dynamic Mode

摘要

Purpose The biomechanical characteristics of anatomic radial head prostheses have not been completely investigated. We compared and analyzed the contact kinematic characteristics of the native radial head and radial head prostheses replicating the native head contour, using a real-time flexion simulation model.
