One of factors that could affect the implant alignment in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the installation instrument designs. In patient-specific cases, the instruments are needed to match the patient's bone morphometry. The goal of this study is to develop a femoral broach and acetabular reamer with shape and size that match the patient's computed tomography (CT) scan data. The femoral broach was designed by evaluating a femoral stem based on the anthropometrical data of the femur, drawing a broach on the surface of the stem, and building a handle that will attach to the double offset broach handle. The acetabular reamer was designed by analyzing the acetabulum and acetabular shell, drawing a conventional reamer based on the acetabulum diameter and height of the acetabular shell, and designing a connector with a X shape. The range of the femoral broach is a 1–2 mm distance to the femoral stem and has distance of 3–4 mm from the cancellous bone to facilitate good osseointegration. As a result, the designed reamer has a height of 24.61 mm, a half-ball diameter of 41.91 mm, teeth with the shape of a quarter ball, and a size of 8.28mm. The acetabular reamer has a similar diameter to the acetabulum. In conclusion, based on the experimental test through three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, the femoral broach and the acetabular reamer can fit well in the proximal femur and acetabulum and are expected to aid better during THA procedures.

摘要

One of factors that could affect the implant alignment in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is the installation instrument designs. In patient-specific cases, the instruments are needed to match the patient's bone morphometry. The goal of this study is to develop a femoral broach and acetabular reamer with shape and size that match the patient's computed tomography (CT) scan data. The femoral broach was designed by evaluating a femoral stem based on the anthropometrical data of the femur, drawing a broach on the surface of the stem, and building a handle that will attach to the double offset broach handle. The acetabular reamer was designed by analyzing the acetabulum and acetabular shell, drawing a conventional reamer based on the acetabulum diameter and height of the acetabular shell, and designing a connector with a X shape. The range of the femoral broach is a 1–2 mm distance to the femoral stem and has distance of 3–4 mm from the cancellous bone to facilitate good osseointegration. As a result, the designed reamer has a height of 24.61 mm, a half-ball diameter of 41.91 mm, teeth with the shape of a quarter ball, and a size of 8.28mm. The acetabular reamer has a similar diameter to the acetabulum. In conclusion, based on the experimental test through three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, the femoral broach and the acetabular reamer can fit well in the proximal femur and acetabulum and are expected to aid better during THA procedures.
