| Description: |
Although there have been qualitative reports on the physiological incongruity of human joints, its effects on load transmission and subchondral bone density have remained incompletely characterized. This work reviews existing literature and to quantitatively assess the effect of incongruity on load transmission and subchondral mineralisation. |
| Synopsis: |
The objective of the present work is to review the existing literature on joint incongruity, cellular mechano-transduction, and computer simulations of mechano-adaptive bone remodelling, and to quantitatively assess the effect of incongruity on load transmission and subchondral mineralisation. Idealised computer models of incongruous joints and a specific anatomically based model of the humero-ulnar joint articulation were analysed with the finite element method, and the results directly compared with experimental and morphological data. |
