Finite Element and One Point Fixation

Fayoum University

Status: Completed

Conditions: Zygomaticomaxillary Complex Fracture

Treatments: Procedure: Zygomaticomaxillary fracture repair

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT05819372

R-OS-2-23-3

Details and patient eligibility

About

• A cone beam CT (CBCT) scan of the patient, will be used to create a 3D scanned image of ZMC
• 3D images will be introduced to finite element (FA)software to evaluate Stresses (MPa) and Life time (cycle) For each model and determine which point of fixation is the best
• After application this point of fixation on the patient
• Finite element analysis will be done again to verify the previous results
