Interactions of Bone with Orthopedic Implants and Possible Failures

by Amirhossein Goharian, Ehsan Golkar

Overview

Interactions of Bone with Orthopedic Implants and Possible Failures focuses on the mechanical and biological issues that may cause failure of the implant-bone construct. The book provides discussions on the effects of the design, process, surface and other engineering parameters of implants and their interaction with bone tissue. For implant designers, it is highly crucial to know the final effects of what they are designing or aiming to design, along with performance parameters. It is also crucial for orthopedic surgeons to be familiar with the background of the design and process parameters of the implant they will insert in a patient’s body.

With the understanding brought forth in this book, surgeons can have better implant options and implant designers can create and develop new implant designs. This book can also help biomechanical and mechanical engineers who are normally dealing with testing and analysis of orthopedic implants examine the biomechanical behavior of the implants and their interaction with bone tissue.

About the Author

Amirhossein Goharian is a Senior Engineer working in the orthopedic implant industry. He earned his Bachelor’s degree from the University of Kashan in 2007, and his completed his Master’s in Mechanical Engineering in Biomechanics at the University Technology Malaysia (UTM) in 2012. He joined the R&D department of LEONIX Sdn. Bhd., Penang, Malaysia, in 2012, rising to Senior R&D Leader in Jan 2015. In 2017, he joined Isfahan Orthopedic Implant Development Co., an orthopedic implant manufacturer in Isfahan, Iran, as the QA-R&D leader until Sep 2020. Since then, he has been developing innovations in the field of orthopedic implants, based on ideas set out in his published work. Goharian has previously published three books with Elsevier, covering trauma plating systems, osseointegration and surface engineering of orthopedic implants.

Dr. Ehsan Golkar is an orthopedic surgeon in Ashrafi Hospital, Isfahan, Iran. He graduated from Isfahan University of Medical Sciences in General Medicine in 2010, and from Yazd Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences in Specialist Orthopedic Program in 2016. Dr. Golkar is interested in enhancing the design concepts'of the orthopedic implants for more satisfactory results in long-term implantation.
