Prothese für den Ersatz eines GelenksProsthesis for replacing a joint BeschreibungDescription

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Prothese für den Ersatz eines Gelenks mit Bandlängenausgleich, vorzugsweise für einThe invention relates to a prosthesis for the replacement of a joint with ligament length compensation, preferably for a

Fingergelenk oder Zehengelenk, bestehend aus zwei mittels eines Gelenks miteinander verbundenen Teilen, die jeweils einen Schaft zur Verankerung in den angrenzenden Knochen aufweisen.
25
Finger joint or toe joint, consisting of two parts connected by a joint, each with a shaft for anchoring in the adjacent bone.

Aus dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster G 92 16 202.9 ist eine Finger-Mittelgelenkprothese bekannt, die aus zwei gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Teilen besteht, an deren gegenüberliegenden freien Enden jeweils ein Schaft zum Einsetzen in einen Fingerknochen sich befindet und die Teile mittels Scharniergelenke verbunden sind. Dieses Scharniergelenk besteht aus einer Gabel mit zwei beabstandeten Ansätzen mit Bohrungen und einem zweiten Teil, ebenfalls mit einer Bohrung, der in den Zwischenraum der Gabel einsetzbar ist und mittels eines Stiftes über die fluchtenden Bohrungen verbunden werden kann. Nachteilig an dieser Erfindung ist u.a., daß die einzusetzende Prothese nach der Resektion an den Knochen genau die Länge des Bandapparates aufweisen muß, da die Operation sonst nicht ausreichend befriedigend verläuft.A finger middle joint prosthesis is known from the German utility model G 92 16 202.9, which consists of two parts connected to one another by means of a joint, at the opposite free ends of which there is a shaft for insertion into a finger bone and the parts are connected by means of hinge joints. This hinge joint consists of a fork with two spaced-apart attachments with holes and a second part, also with a hole, which can be inserted into the space between the fork and can be connected by means of a pin via the aligned holes. One of the disadvantages of this invention is that the prosthesis to be inserted after the resection of the bone must have exactly the length of the ligament apparatus, otherwise the operation will not be sufficiently satisfactory.

Es gibt bei diesem Stand der Technik nur unbefriedigende Möglickeiten während der Operation auf die Länge des Bandapparates einzugehen.Given the current state of technology, there are only unsatisfactory options for adjusting the length of the ligamentous apparatus during surgery.

Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Prothese für den Ersatz eines Gelenks zu schaffen, die einfacher bei der Anpassung des Implantates an den vorhandenen Bandapparat und seinen unterschiedlichen Längen zu handhaben ist und gleichzeitig die natürliche Gelenkkinematik weitestgehend wiederherstellt. 15The invention is therefore based on the task of creating a prosthesis for replacing a joint that is easier to handle when adapting the implant to the existing ligament apparatus and its different lengths and at the same time restores the natural joint kinematics as far as possible. 15

Weiterhin ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung bei Erreichen der Endpunkte der Beweglichkeit einen weichen Anschlag zu erhalten.Furthermore, it is the object of the invention to obtain a soft stop when the end points of mobility are reached.

Die Aufgabe wird bei der Prothese für den Ersatz eines Gelenks erfingungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die beiden in den Knochen zu verankernden Teile je ein Gelenkteil mit kugelförmig ausgearbeiteten Segment als Gelenkpfannen besitzen, in denen ein kugelförmiges Verbindungselement mit zwei kugelförmigen Segmenten als Gelenkköpfe beweglich gelagert ist und so die beiden Gelenkteile über das Verbindungselement verbunden werden. Das kugelförmige Verbindungselement besteht aus zwei miteinander über eine Scheibe verbundene Gelenkköpfe.The problem is solved according to the invention in the prosthesis for replacing a joint in that the two parts to be anchored in the bone each have a joint part with a spherical segment as joint sockets, in which a spherical connecting element with two spherical segments as joint heads is movably mounted and the two joint parts are thus connected via the connecting element. The spherical connecting element consists of two joint heads connected to one another via a disk.

Das erfindungsgemäße Gelenk bietet den Vorteil, daß es unter den verhältnismäßig schwierigen Operationsbedingungen eine einfache und relativ schnelle gelenkige Verbindung gibt. Während der Operation werden zunächst einzeln in denThe joint according to the invention offers the advantage that it provides a simple and relatively quick joint connection under the relatively difficult operating conditions. During the operation, the

angrenzenden resezierten Knochen die Teile fixiert und verankert und anschließend über ein kugelförmiges Verbindungselement gelenkig miteinander verbunden. Durch die Auswahl eines in ihren Abmessungen passenden Verbindungselementes wird dabei die natürliche Gelenkkinematik weitestgehend wieder hergestellt. Dieses wird auf die besonders einfache Art erreicht, in dem bei der Anpassung des Implantates an den vorhandenen Bandapparat die unterschiedlichen Längen durch ein Verbindungselement mit einer passenden Scheibendicke zwischen den beiden Gelenkköpfen als Distanzstück, ausgewählt wird. 15The parts are fixed and anchored in the adjacent resected bone and then connected to one another using a spherical connecting element. By selecting a connecting element with the right dimensions, the natural joint kinematics are restored as far as possible. This is achieved in a particularly simple way by selecting the different lengths using a connecting element with a suitable disc thickness between the two joint heads as a spacer when adapting the implant to the existing ligament apparatus. 15

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung sind die Gelenkteile an den Schäften so ausgebildet, daß in den Flächen der Gelenkteile, die gegenüber den Schäften liegen, jeweils ein kugelförmiges Segment als Gelenkpfanne zur Aufnahme des kugelförmigen Verbindungselementes mit seinen beiden Gelenkköpfen vorhanden ist. Damit die beiden zu verbindenden Teile auch beweglich sind, sind die Flächen an den Gelenkteilen, die gegenüber den Schäften für die Verankerung in den resezierten Knochen liegen, abgewinkelt. Die Abwinkelung erfolgt möglichst im Drehpunkt der sich gegenüberliegenden Teile in einem Winkel entsprechend dem Anwendungsgebiet.In an advantageous embodiment, the joint parts on the shafts are designed in such a way that in the surfaces of the joint parts that are opposite the shafts, there is a spherical segment as a joint socket for receiving the spherical connecting element with its two joint heads. So that the two parts to be connected are also movable, the surfaces on the joint parts that are opposite the shafts for anchoring in the resected bone are angled. The angle is preferably at the pivot point of the opposing parts at an angle corresponding to the area of application.

Bei den erfindungsgemäßen Ausführungen handelt es sich dabei bevorzugt um einen Winkel von bis zu 45° in der Fläche in Richtung der Schäfte der jeweiligen Teile. Als besonders vorteilhaft hat sich dabei eine Neigung von 35° bis 45° erwiesen, so daß das Gelenk insgesamt um einen Winkel bis zu 90°, bevorzugt bis zu 74° aus der Axialen in einer Richtung ausgelenkt werden kann.In the embodiments according to the invention, this is preferably an angle of up to 45° in the surface in the direction of the shafts of the respective parts. An inclination of 35° to 45° has proven to be particularly advantageous, so that the joint can be deflected in one direction by an angle of up to 90°, preferably up to 74°, from the axial.

AIs vorteilhaft hat sich für ein nach der Operation verträgliches Implantat erwiesen, wenn die Flächen an den Gelenkteilen, die an der Seite der Schäfte angeordnet sind, einen Winkel von bis zu 40°, bevorzugt 20° bis 30° zu der den Schäften abgewandten Seite hin aufweisen.It has proven to be advantageous for an implant that is compatible after the operation if the surfaces on the joint parts that are arranged on the side of the shafts have an angle of up to 40°, preferably 20° to 30°, towards the side facing away from the shafts.

Das erfindungsgemäß zur Anwendung kommende kugelförmige Verbindungselement besteht aus mehreren miteinander verbundenen Teilen. Jeweils ein kugelförmig gearbeitete s Kugelsegment befindet sich mittig als Gelenkkopf auf den Flächen einer Scheibe, deren Dicke den Erfordernissen angepaßt werden kann. Diese Anordnung kann auf bekannter Art und Weise fest miteinander verbunden werden oder es hat sich als besonders vorteilhaft gezeigt, wenn das Verbindungselement bestehend aus Scheibe und den beiden Gelenkköpfen aus einem Stück gefertigt ist.The spherical connecting element used according to the invention consists of several parts connected to one another. A spherical ball segment is located in the middle as a joint head on the surfaces of a disk, the thickness of which can be adapted to the requirements. This arrangement can be firmly connected to one another in a known manner or it has proven to be particularly advantageous if the connecting element consisting of the disk and the two joint heads is made from one piece.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist am Umfang der Scheibe eine Vertiefung eingearbeitet. Es hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn die Vertiefung in Form einer Rille vorhanden ist, die nach Möglichkeit umlaufend sein sollte. Die Rille am Umfang der Scheibe des Verbindungselementes kann einen Röntgenkontrastring aufnehmen.In a preferred embodiment, a recess is incorporated into the circumference of the disk. It has proven advantageous if the recess is in the form of a groove, which should be circumferential if possible. The groove on the circumference of the disk of the connecting element can accommodate an X-ray contrast ring.

Das kugelförmige Verbindungelement besitzt durch die spezielle Gestaltung zwei Funktionen, die es in sich vereinigt. Es dient als Reib- und Kugelgelenkteil auf der einen Seite und bewirkt durch die Zwischenscheibe mit variabler Dicke, daß der Operateur nach der Resektion der beiden Knochenenden auf die Länge des Bandapparates reagieren kann und entsprechend der Länge des Bandapparates einThe spherical connecting element has two functions due to its special design, which it combines. It serves as a friction and ball joint part on the one hand and, thanks to the intermediate disc with variable thickness, ensures that the surgeon can react to the length of the ligament apparatus after the resection of the two bone ends and can create a

passendes Verbindungselement mit der erforderlichen Scheibendicke auswählen kann, um damit die Bandspannung zu beinflussen.suitable connecting element with the required disc thickness can be selected in order to influence the belt tension.

Der Anschlag der Anschlagflächen bei Erreichen der Endpunkte der Winkelbewegung auf die Flächen der Scheibe erfolgt durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung weich, da die Scheibe des Verbindungselementes vorteilhafterweise aus einem Kunststoff gefertigt wird und somit eine Berührung der Flächen der sich gegenüberliegenden Gelenkteile, die bevorzugt aus einem harten gut implantierbaren und verträglichen Material gefertigt wurden, ausgeschlossen ist.The stop of the stop surfaces on the surfaces of the disc when the end points of the angular movement are reached is achieved by the solution according to the invention in a soft manner, since the disc of the connecting element is advantageously made of a plastic and thus contact between the surfaces of the opposing joint parts, which are preferably made of a hard, easily implantable and compatible material, is excluded.

Die Schäfte der Teile sind vorteilhafterweise mit Schaftvertiefungen versehen. Dieses hat den Vorteil, daß die Lage der Prothese sich genau fixieren und befestigen läßt.The shafts of the parts are advantageously provided with shaft recesses. This has the advantage that the position of the prosthesis can be precisely fixed and secured.

Damit ist eine spätere Drehung der Prothese nahezu ausgeschlossen.This virtually eliminates the possibility of the prosthesis turning later.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführung, werden die Schaftvertiefungen in Form von Nuten in der Längsrichtung der Schäfte eingearbeitet. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn mehrere Nuten in einen Schaft eingebracht werden. Dabei kann die Anordnung beliebig erfolgen.In a preferred embodiment, the shaft recesses are incorporated in the form of grooves in the longitudinal direction of the shafts. It is particularly advantageous if several grooves are incorporated into one shaft. The arrangement can be as desired.

Es hat sich auch von Vorteil gezeigt, wenn die Schäfte, die in den Knochen eingelassen und befestigt werden eine Konizität aufweisen. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn der Anstieg vom Ende des Schaftes zum Gelenkteil dabei 3° bis 4° beträgt, aber auch andere Winkel sind möglich. Durch die vorhandene Konizität wird bei der einzusetzenden Prothese in die resezierten Knochen ein fester Preßsitz erreicht.It has also been shown to be advantageous if the shafts that are inserted and fixed into the bone have a conicity. It is particularly advantageous if the rise from the end of the shaft to the joint part is 3° to 4°, but other angles are also possible. The existing conicity ensures that the prosthesis to be inserted into the resected bone is firmly pressed into place.

Die Schaftlänge an den beiden Teilen sollte aufgrund der anatomischen Gegebenheiten der resezierten Knochen nach Möglichkeit unterschiedlich sein.The shaft length on the two parts should be different if possible due to the anatomical conditions of the resected bones.

Während bei dem einen Schaft als bevorzugte Länge sich der 3-fache Durchmesser vom größten Durchmesser des Schaftes bewährt hat, sollte der Schaft des anderen dazugehörigen Teiles eine Länge von dem 1,2 bis 1,4-fachen der Länge des anderen Schaftes aufweisen. Aber auch andere Abmessungen sind möglich.While the preferred length for one shaft is 3 times the largest diameter of the shaft, the shaft of the other associated part should have a length of 1.2 to 1.4 times the length of the other shaft. However, other dimensions are also possible.

Um bei der Operation an die konkret vorliegenden anatomischen Verhältnisse der Gelenke und Personen die Prothese anzupassen, werden alle Maße im gleichen Verhältnis vergrößert oder verkleinert.In order to adapt the prosthesis to the specific anatomical conditions of the joints and people during the operation, all dimensions are increased or reduced in the same proportion.

Die erfindungsgemäße Prothese sollte aus Metall, Kunststoff oder Keramik bestehen. Als bevorzugtes Material kommt für die Teile Ti6A14V zum Einsatz. Aber auch andere implantierbare Metalle mit guter Biokompatibilität sind möglich. Die Oberflächen dieser Implantate können durch Titan-Niob-Beschichtungen, Reinsttitan-Plasmabeschichtungen mit extra rauher Oberflächenstruktur oder mit einer Hydroxy-Apatitbeschichtung, die besonders gewebeverträglich sind, ausgestattet sein. Die Ausführung läßt auch generell unbeschichtete Teile zu.The prosthesis according to the invention should be made of metal, plastic or ceramic. The preferred material for the parts is Ti6A14V. However, other implantable metals with good biocompatibility are also possible. The surfaces of these implants can be equipped with titanium-niobium coatings, pure titanium plasma coatings with an extra rough surface structure or with a hydroxy apatite coating, which are particularly tissue-compatible. The design also generally allows for uncoated parts.

Das Verbindungselement sollte vorteilhafterweise aus einem Kunststoff gefertigt werden. Als besonders vorteilhaft hat sich dabei Polyethylen erwiesen, insbesondere das Vollmaterial UHMWPe (Chirulen), aber auch andere Materialien sind möglich.The connecting element should preferably be made of a plastic. Polyethylene has proven to be particularly advantageous, especially the solid material UHMWPe (Chirulen), but other materials are also possible.

Weitere Vorteile, Einzelheiten und erfindungswesentliche Merkmale ergeben sich unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen.Further advantages, details and features essential to the invention can be found with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Nach der Figur 1 besteht die Prothese aus einem ersten Teil 1 und einem zweiten Teil 2 mit jeweils einem sich gegenüberliegenden Gelenkteil 5,6.According to Figure 1, the prosthesis consists of a first part 1 and a second part 2, each with an opposing joint part 5,6.

An den sich gegenüberliegenden Enden der Gelenkteile 5 und befindet sich jeweils ein Schaft 3,4, der nach außen gerichtet ist.
Die Fläche 12 am Gelenkteil 5 und die Fläche 13 am Gelenkteil 6 befinden sich jeweils an der gegenüberliegenden Seite der jeweiligen Schäfte 3,4. Die Flächen 12 und 13 sind dabei so angeordnet, daß sie bis zur Achse 14 in einem Winkel von 90° verlaufen und die Fläche 12 in der Höhe der Achse 14 in einem Winkel von 40° zum Schaft 3 wegknickt und die Fläche 13 am Gelenkteil 6 in der gleichen Weise wegknickt, jedoch nur in Richtung des Schaftes 4.
At the opposite ends of the joint parts 5 and 6 there is a shaft 3, 4 which is directed outwards.
The surface 12 on the joint part 5 and the surface 13 on the joint part 6 are each located on the opposite side of the respective shafts 3, 4. The surfaces 12 and 13 are arranged in such a way that they run at an angle of 90° up to the axis 14 and the surface 12 bends away at the height of the axis 14 at an angle of 40° to the shaft 3 and the surface 13 on the joint part 6 bends away in the same way, but only in the direction of the shaft 4.

In die Gelenkteile 5,6 ist jeweils mittig in den Flächen 12 und 13 eine Gelenkpfanne 7,8 fluchtend zu den Schäften 3 und 4 eingearbeitet.A joint socket 7,8 is incorporated into the joint parts 5,6 in the middle of the surfaces 12 and 13, aligned with the shafts 3 and 4.

Nach dem Einsetzen der Schäfte 3 und 4 in die Knochen wird das kugelförmige Verbindungsstück 9 in den Zwischenraum inAfter inserting the shafts 3 and 4 into the bones, the spherical connecting piece 9 is inserted into the space between

die Gelenkpfannen 7 und 8 der beiden Gelenkteile 5 und 6 eingesetzt. Dabei bilden die Oberflächen der Gelenkköpfe 20 und 21 mit den Oberflächen der jeweiligen Gelenkpfannen 7 und 8 ein Reib- und Kugelgelenklager. Durch die Scheibe 10, die sich mittig zwischen den beiden Gelenkköpfen 20 und 21 befindet, erfolgt der Anschlag der Flächen 12 und 13 nur gegen die Flächen des Scheibe 10.the joint sockets 7 and 8 of the two joint parts 5 and 6 are inserted. The surfaces of the joint heads 20 and 21 form a friction and ball joint bearing with the surfaces of the respective joint sockets 7 and 8. The disc 10, which is located centrally between the two joint heads 20 and 21, ensures that the surfaces 12 and 13 only come into contact with the surfaces of the disc 10.

Als besonders vorteilhaft hat es sich dabei erwiesen, wenn die Scheibe 10 aus einem Kunststoff besteht, der eine leichte federnde Wirkung besitzt, so daß der Anschlag der Flächen am Ende der Bewegung weich erfolgt.It has proven particularly advantageous if the disk 10 is made of a plastic that has a slight spring effect, so that the surfaces stop gently at the end of the movement.

Da die Scheibe 10 eine unterschiedliche Dicke aufweisen kann, ohne die Funktion des Gelenks zu beeinflussen, besteht die Möglichkeit durch Auswahl der Dicke der Scheibe 10 ein entsprechend der Länge des Bandapparates erforderliche Prothese zu erhalten.Since the disc 10 can have a different thickness without affecting the function of the joint, it is possible to obtain a prosthesis that is required according to the length of the ligamentous apparatus by selecting the thickness of the disc 10.

In der dargestellten Figur ist der Umfang der Scheibe 10 umlaufend mit einer Vertiefung 11 versehen. Diese Vertiefung kann zur Aufnahme eines Röntgenkontrastmitteis dienen.In the figure shown, the circumference of the disk 10 is provided with a recess 11. This recess can be used to accommodate an X-ray contrast medium.

In der in der Figur 1 dargestellten Prothese sind die Flächen 15 und 16 an den Gelenkteilen in einem Winkel von 24° aus der Senkrechten gegenüber der Achse 14 von den Schäften 3 und 4 weg geneigt.In the prosthesis shown in Figure 1, the surfaces 15 and 16 on the joint parts are inclined at an angle of 24° from the vertical relative to the axis 14 away from the shafts 3 and 4.

Die Schäfte 3 und 4 weisen jeweils eine Konizität auf, die beim Einsatz in die Knochen einen ausreichenden festen Sitz ermöglichen.The shafts 3 and 4 each have a conicity that allows a sufficiently firm fit when inserted into the bone.

In der Figur 2 ist die erfindungsgemäße Gelenkprothese in der Draufsicht dargestellt. Deutlich ist der konische Schaft 3,4 und das Gelenkteil 5,6 zu erkennen. Dieser Schaft 3,4 besitzt in dem Ausführungsbeispiel drei Schaftvertiefungen 17, 18 und 19.'Figure 2 shows the joint prosthesis according to the invention in a top view. The conical shaft 3,4 and the joint part 5,6 can be clearly seen. In the exemplary embodiment, this shaft 3,4 has three shaft recesses 17, 18 and 19.'

In diesem Fall sind diese Schaftvertiefungen vorteihafter in Form einer Nut in Längsrichtung eingearbeitet, wobei die drei Schaftvertiefungen in gleichmäßigen Abstanden um den Schaft angeordnet sind.In this case, these shaft recesses are advantageously machined in the form of a groove in the longitudinal direction, with the three shaft recesses arranged at equal distances around the shaft.

In der Figur 3 ist eine Prothese in einem eingebauten Zustand dargestellt. Deutlich sind die beiden Teile mit den Gelenkteilen 5 und 6, die auf den resezierten Knochen 22 und 23 sitzen und durch die Schäfte 3 und 4 in diese fixiert und fest verankert wurden, zu erkennen.Figure 3 shows a prosthesis in an installed state. The two parts with the joint parts 5 and 6, which sit on the resected bones 22 and 23 and are fixed and firmly anchored in them by the shafts 3 and 4, can be clearly seen.

Da in dieser Figur das Gelenk in leicht gebeugter Haltung dargestellt ist, wird das Zusammenwirken der Gelenkteile 5 und 6 und des kugelförmigen Verbindungselementes mit seiner Scheibe 10 besonders deutlich.Since in this figure the joint is shown in a slightly bent position, the interaction of the joint parts 5 and 6 and the spherical connecting element with its disc 10 becomes particularly clear.

Durch den leicht geöffneten Zustand des Gelenkes in der Figur 3, sind die Anschlagflächen 12 und 13 und die Flächen der Scheibe 10 nicht aufliegend.Due to the slightly opened state of the joint in Figure 3, the stop surfaces 12 and 13 and the surfaces of the disc 10 are not resting.
