AimsImplant failure in allograft reconstruction is one of the most common problems after treating a large bone defect for a primary bone tumor. The study aimed to investigate the effect of bone cement augmentation with different configurations of dual locking plates used for femoral allograft fixation.MethodsFour finite element (FE) models of the femur with a 1-mm bone gap were developed at the midshaft with different configurations of the 10-hole fixation dual locking plate (LP) with and without intramedullary bone cement augmentation. Model 1 was the dual LP at the lateral and medial aspect of the femur. Model 2 was Model 1 with bone cement augmentation. Model 3 was the dual LP at the anterior and lateral aspect of the femur. Finally, Model 4 was Model 3 with bone cement augmentation. All models were tested for stiffness under axial compression as well as torsional, lateral–medial, and anterior–posterior bending. In addition, the FE analyses were validated using biomechanical testing on a cadaveric femur.ResultsModel 2 had the greatest axial compression stiffness, followed by Models 1, 4, and 3. Bone cement augmentation in Models 2 and 4 had 3.5% and 2.4% greater axial stiffness than the non-augmentation Models 1 and 3, respectively. In the bone cement augmentation models, Model 2 had 11.9% greater axial compression stiffness than Model 4.ConclusionThe effect of bone cement augmentation increases construct stiffness less than the effect of the dual LP configuration. A dual lateral–medial LP with bone cement augmentation provides the strongest fixation of the femur in terms of axial compression and lateral bending stiffness.
