Abstract

With the rapid development of biomedical and intelligent systems, more and more surgical modalities can be created and improved with computers. The finite element method is widely used in orthopaedics and can also simulate biomechanical changes in perianal soft tissues. This study created surgical models of perianal abscesses with different working conditions in SUPER-SAP finite element software by giving different tissue mechanical properties through MR image mapping and axial pulling tests. The results suggest that perianal abscess surgery with an incisional indwelling skin bridge may reduce displacement deformation at key anal nodes, revealing that the skin bridge may be one of the potential factors in preserving the functional reconstruction of the anus. This study may provide a basis for further exploration of perianal biomechanical mechanisms.
