Objective:
To study the shoulder anatomy characteristics of the Chinese people and to design a new kind of humeral prosthesis, which could realize the adjustment in three-dimensional space and be adjusted repeatedly, based on Chinese humeral anatomy characteristics.
Methods:
A double-gear structure as a rotating part was adopted to design the structure of this new kind humeral prosthesis.
Results:
The humeral prosthesis could satisfy both the needs of Chinese individual shoulder characteristics and the Westerners' demands.
Conclusion:
A novel concept of shoulder prosthesis design with a strong application value in design and development of the new prosthesis is proposed.
