Functional morphology of trabecular system in human proximal femur: a perspective from P45 sectional plastination and 3D reconstruction finite element analysis
The strength of proximal femur depends on dense cortical bone, calcar femorale, lateral and medial trabecular systems, and greater trochanter. While anterolateral and posterolateral areas of femoral neck and intertrochanteric regions are potential weak zones. Trabecular pattern follows stress paths, optimising load distribution. These insights aid in designing robotic and bionic implants that mimic natural stress patterns, reducing complications.
