We proposed a novel surface modification for an artificial hip joint stem from the viewpoint of maintenance and establishment of appropriate bone function and microstructure, represented by the preferred alignment of biological apatite (BAp) and collagen (Col). Oriented grooves were introduced into the proximal medial region of the femoral stem to control the principal stress applied to the bone inside the grooves, which is a dominant factor contributing to the promotion of Col/BAp alignment. The groove angle and the stem material were optimized based on the stress inside the grooves through a finite element analysis (FEA). Only the groove oriented proximally by 60 degrees from the normal direction of the stem surface generated the healthy maximum principal stress distribution. The magnitude of the maximum principal stress inside the groove decreased with increasing the stem Young's modulus, while the direction of the stress did not largely changed. An in vivo implantation experiment showed that this groove was effective in inducing the new bone with preferential Col/BAp alignment along the groove depth direction which corresponded to the direction of maximum principal stress inside the groove. The anisotropic principal stress distribution and the oriented microstructure inside the groove are similar to those found in the femoral trabeculae; therefore, the creation of the oriented groove is a potent surface modification for optimizing implant design for a long-term fixation.
