Abstract :
[en] Long bone fracture constitutes a common reason for medical consultation within veterinary orthopaedic services. Owing to the specificities of the veterinary field, post-operative complications after a fracture osteosynthesis are usually more numerous than those in human medicine, and therefore, there is a need to better understand which orthopaedic device(s) should be preferred for a given fracture. The interest of subjectspecific finite element (FE) simulations in the understanding of long bone mechanics has been largely emphasised (Helgason et al. 2008; Schileo et al. 2008). However, available studies are often limited by the many assumptions made throughout the procedure of creating a validated subject-specific FE model of a long bone, including geometry acquisition and modelling, assignment of realistic material properties and accurate validation of FE results based on ex vivo experiments. Particularly, fracture prediction has often been limited to the fracture onset prediction based on arbitrary criteria. Based on these previous studies, the objective of the present contribution is to propose and compare different subject-specific FE models of long bones that could accurately predict long bone response and failure.
