OBJECTIVES: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) frequently leads to long-bone bowing requiring a surgical intervention in severe cases to avoid subsequent fractures. However, there are no objective criteria to decide when to perform such intervention. The objective is to develop a finite element model to predict the risk of tibial fracture associated with tibia deformity in patients with OI.
METHODS: A comprehensive FE model of the tibia was adapted to match bi-planar radiographs of a 7 year-old girl with OI. Ten additional models with different deformed geometries (from 2° to 24°) were created and the elasto-plastic mechanical properties were adapted to reflect OI conditions. Loads were obtained from mechanography of two-legged hopping. Two additional impact cases (lateral and torsion) were also simulated. Principal strain levels were used to define a risk criterion.
RESULTS: Fracture risks for the two-legged hopping load case remained low and constant until tibia bowing reached 15° and 16° in sagittal and coronal planes respectively. Fracture risks for lateral and torsion impact were equivalent whatever the level of tibial bowing.
CONCLUSIONS: The finite element model of OI tibia provides an objective means of assessing the necessity of surgical intervention for a given level of tibia bowing in OI-affected children.
