Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine chirurgische Vorrichtung mit zwei relativ zueinander beweglichen Teilen und mit einer Klemmeinrichtung zur Festlegung der Teile relativ zueinander.The invention relates to a surgical Device with two relatively movable parts and with a clamping device for fixing the parts relative to each other.
Bei chirurgischen Vorrichtungen, insbesondere solchen, die in den Körper implantiert werden, also beispielsweise bei Knochenersatzimplantaten, bei Endoprothesen oder bei orthopädischen Haltevorrichtungen, besteht häufig das Problem, daß Teile dieser Vorrichtung zunächst gegeneinander bewegt werden müssen, beispielsweise zur Lageanpassung oder zur Formanpassung der chirurgischen Vorrichtung bei der Implantation, und daß danach diese Teile relativ zueinander fixiert werden müssen. Es ist dazu bekannt, diese Teile über eine Klemmeinrichtung relativ zueinander festzulegen, viele dieser bekannten Klemmeinrichtungen arbeiten mit mechanisch verstellbaren Klemmelementen, beispielsweise mit Klemmschrauben, mit Exzentern oder ähnlichen manuell zu verstellenden Teilen. Obwohl dies in vielen Fällen ausreicht, kann es schwierig sein, diese Klemmelemente zu betätigen, da sie häufig an sehr schwer zugänglichen Stellen plaziert werden.With surgical devices, especially those that are implanted in the body, that is for example in bone replacement implants, in endoprostheses or in orthopedic Holders are common the problem that parts of this Device first have to be moved against each other for example to adjust the position or to adapt the shape of the surgical Device during implantation, and that after that these parts are relative must be fixed to each other. It is known to relate these parts via a clamping device to define each other, many of these known clamping devices work with mechanically adjustable clamping elements, for example with clamping screws, with eccentrics or similar manually adjustable Divide. Although in many cases sufficient, it can be difficult to operate these clamping elements because them often in very difficult to access Places to be placed.
Es ist auch bekannt, Klemmeinrichtungen mit
Klemmelementen zu verwenden, die durch Teile aus sogenanntem Formgedächtnismetallen
bestehen. Diese Metalle haben die Eigenschaft, daß sie beim Überschreiten
einer bestimmten Übergangstemperatur
ihre Kristallstruktur so ändern,
daß ihre Form
geändert
wird. Diese Formänderung
kann verwendet werden, um eine Klemmung von zwei Teilen herbeizuführen (
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine gattungsgemäße chirurgische Vorrichtung so auszubilden, daß auf einfache Weise eine Lösung oder Klemmung der gegeneinander beweglichen Teile erreicht werden kann, ohne daß dazu eine manuelle Betätigung notwendig ist und ohne daß dazu Formgedächtnislegierungen benutzt werden müssen.It is an object of the invention generic surgical Train the device so that simple way a solution or clamping of the parts movable against each other can be achieved can without this manual operation necessary and without that Shape Memory Alloys must be used.
Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer chirurgischen Vorrichtung der eingangs beschriebenen Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Klemmeinrichtung zur Erzeugung von Klemmkräften mindestens einen Bereich aufweist, der mit einem Material gefüllt ist, welches abhängig von seinem Flüssigkeitsgehalt und/oder abhängig von seiner Temperatur sein Volumen so stark verändert, daß die Klemmeinrichtung von einem Freigabezustand in einen Klemmzustand übergeht.This task is accomplished with a surgical device of the type described in the introduction solved in that the clamping device to generate clamping forces has at least one area which is filled with a material, which is dependent of its liquid content and / or dependent from its temperature changes its volume so much that the clamping device of a release state changes into a clamped state.
Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Entwicklung werden also bewußt Materialien eingesetzt, die entweder abhängig von ihrem Flüssigkeitsgehalt oder abhängig von der Temperatur – gegebenenfalls auch abhängig von beiden Parametern – ein starkes Volumenänderungsverhalten zeigen. Dieses Volumenänderungsverhalten geht über das normale Volumenänderungsverhalten aufgrund der atomaren Bewegung deutlich hinaus, es handelt sich vielmehr um ein Volumenverhalten, welches durch einen Umbau der Struktur des Materials bedingt wird, bei temperaturabhängiger Volumenveränderung beispielsweise durch einen reversiblen Umbau des Kristallgitters des Materials, bei einer Volumenveränderung durch den Flüssigkeitsgehalt entweder durch die osmotische Wirkung des Materials oder durch eine atomare oder molekulare Wechselwirkung zwischen dem Material und der Flüssigkeit, selbstverständlich sind auch Kombinationen dieser Effekte möglich.As part of the present development so consciously Materials used are either dependent on their liquid content or dependent on the temperature - if necessary also dependent of both parameters - one strong volume change behavior demonstrate. This volume change behavior passes over the normal volume change behavior due to the atomic movement, it is about rather a volume behavior, which is caused by a restructuring of the structure the material is conditioned, with temperature-dependent volume change for example by a reversible conversion of the crystal lattice of the Materials, with a change in volume by the liquid content either by the osmotic effect of the material or by a atomic or molecular interaction between the material and the liquid, Of course combinations of these effects are also possible.
Beispielsweise kann gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform das Material ein unter Flüssigkeitszufuhr quellendes Material sein, beispielsweise ein Hydrogel.For example, according to one preferred embodiment the material is under hydration swelling material, for example a hydrogel.
An sich sind derartige Substanzen
bereits bekannt und werden auch bei chirurgischen Knochenschrauben,
Prothesenschäften
und dergleichen eingesetzt, um diese Elemente im Knochen zu fixieren.
Dabei werden diese chirurgischen Halteelemente oberflächlich mit
einer solchen Hydrogel-Substanz beschichtet, dieses Substanz soll
den sonst üblichen, aushärtbaren
Knochenzement ersetzen, der sonst zur Festlegung dieser Halteelemente
in Knochenhohlräumen
verwendet wird (
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es bei der Erfindung, wenn das Material ein Polymer ist, insbesondere kann das Material aus einem der folgenden Materialien be stehen oder zumindest eines der folgenden Materialien als Bestandteil enthalten:It is particularly advantageous for of the invention, if the material is a polymer, in particular can the material from one of the following materials be or at least contain one of the following materials as an ingredient:
- Polyvinylalkoholpolyvinyl alcohol
- Polyacrylatpolyacrylate
- Polyacrylsäurepolyacrylic acid
- Polyhydroxyalkylacrylatpolyhydroxyalkyl acrylate
- Polyacrylonitrilpolyacrylonitrile
- Polyacrylamidpolyacrylamide
- Polyhydroxyalcyl-2-MethylacrylatPolyhydroxyalcyl-2-methyl
- PolyvinylphyrrolidonPolyvinylphyrrolidon
- Copolymer und Terpolymere auf der Basis von N-Vinylphyrrolidon, Acrylsäure, Hydroxy-Alkylacrylat, Acrylamid.Copolymer and terpolymers based on N-vinylphyrrolidone, Acrylic acid, Hydroxy alkyl acrylate, acrylamide.
Es handelt sich bei diesen Substanzen um solche, die bei Zufuhr von Flüssigkeit, beispielsweise Wasser, ein stark quellendes Verhalten haben und damit ihr Volumen stark vergrößern, dieser Vorgang ist reversibel.These substances are those which have a strongly swelling behavior when liquid, for example water, is added so that their volume increases greatly, this process is reversible.
Wenn Material verwendet wird, dessen Volumenänderung durch eine Temperaturänderung verursacht wird, ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn das Material ein Kunststoff ist, der beim Überschreiten einer Übergangstemperatur sprunghaft sein Volumen ändert, dies wird in der Regel durch eine Umlagerung des Kristallgitters des Kunststoffes erreicht.If material is used, its volume change through a change in temperature it is particularly advantageous if the material is a plastic that when exceeded a transition temperature its volume changes abruptly, this is usually caused by a rearrangement of the crystal lattice of the plastic reached.
Beispielsweise könnte das Material Polytetrafluorethylen sein.For example, the material could be polytetrafluoroethylene his.
Die relativ zueinander festzulegenden Teile können beispielsweise die Teile einer orthopädischen Halteeinrichtung sein, wie sie zur Stabilisierung der Wirbelsäule eingesetzt wird, es kann sich dabei um Teile einer Endoprothese handeln oder auch um Teile eines Implantates, welches beispielsweise als Knochenersatzimplantat eingesetzt wird.The relative to be determined Parts can for example the parts of an orthopedic holding device, how it is used to stabilize the spine, it can are parts of an endoprosthesis or parts of one Implant, which is used for example as a bone replacement implant becomes.
Gemäß einer ersten bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist dabei vorgesehen, daß das Material zwischen den beiden relativ zueinander festzulegenden Teilen angeordnet ist und direkt an beiden Teilen anliegt. Die Festlegung der beiden Teile erfolgt also dadurch, daß zwischen ihnen das expandierende Material angeordnet ist, das im expandierten Zustand an beiden Teilen anliegt und diese dadurch über einen Kraftschluß und gegebenenfalls über einen Formschluß relativ zueinander festlegt.According to a first preferred embodiment it is provided that the Material between the two parts to be determined relative to each other is arranged and rests directly on both parts. The definition of the two parts is thus done by the expanding material between them is arranged, which abuts both parts in the expanded state and this over a frictional connection and if necessary via a positive fit to each other.
Beispielsweise kann vorgesehen sein, daß das Material in einer einseitig offenen Aufnahmekammer eines der beiden Teile angeordnet ist und daß das andere Teil diese Aufnahmekammer verschließt.For example, that this Material in one of the two open chamber Parts is arranged and that that other part closes this receiving chamber.
Bei einer anderen Ausführungsform füllt das Material einen Ringraum zwischen einer Öffnung des einen Teils und dem anderen Teil aus, welches in die Öffnung eintaucht und kleinere Außenabmessungen aufweist als die Öffnung.In another embodiment fills the material an annulus between an opening of one part and the other part, which dips into the opening and has smaller external dimensions than the opening.
Es ist auch möglich, daß das eine Teil als Hülse ausgebildet ist, die an ihrer Innenseite eine Schicht des Materials trägt.It is also possible that the one part is designed as a sleeve which has a layer of material on the inside.
Bei einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, daß das Material zwischen zwei relativ zueinander beweglichen Elementen angeordnet ist, die durch ihre Relativbewegung die beiden Teile durch Verklemmung über einen Kraftschluß und/oder einen Formschluß festlegen.In a further preferred embodiment it is envisaged that Material between two relatively movable elements is arranged, the two parts by their relative movement by jamming over a frictional connection and / or to establish a positive connection.
Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, daß mindestens eines der beiden beweglichen Elemente durch eines der beiden Teile selbst gebildet wird.It can be provided that at least one of the two movable elements through one of the two parts itself is formed.
Die Festlegung der beiden Teile kann durch einen reinen Kraftschluß erfolgen, es ist aber auch möglich, daß durch die Volumenvergrößerung ein Formschluß der beiden relativ zueinander festzulegenden Teile erfolgt, Kraftschluß und Formschluß können auch gemeinsam auftreten.The definition of the two parts can done by a pure frictional connection, but it is also possible that by the volume increase is a positive fit between the two Parts to be determined relative to each other, non-positive and positive can also occur together.
Das Material kann von einer Membran oder einem Netz umgeben sein, so daß das Material zusammengehalten wird, beispielsweise in Schlauchform oder in Kissenform.The material can be from a membrane or be surrounded by a net so that the material is held together is, for example in the form of a tube or in the form of a pillow.
Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn die Membran für das Material undurchlässig und für Flüssigkeiten durchlässig ist, so daß Flüssigkeit in den Innenraum der Membran eindringen und dort die Quellung und damit die Volumenvergrößerung des Materials bewirken kann.It is advantageous if the membrane for the material impermeable and for liquids permeable is so that liquid penetrate into the interior of the membrane and there the swelling and so that the volume increase of Material can cause.
Die nachfolgende Beschreibung bevorzugten Ausführungsformen der Erfindung dient im Zusammenhang mit der Zeichnung der näheren Erläuterung. Es zeigen:The following description preferred embodiments the invention serves in conjunction with the drawing for a more detailed explanation. Show it:
Die Erfindung wird nachstehend an unterschiedlichen Beispielen von Verbindungen von zwei Teilen erörtert, diese Teile sind Teile von chirurgischen Vorrichtungen, beispielsweise von orthopädischen Haltevorrichtungen, wie sie im Wirbelsäulenbereich eingesetzt werden, von Implantaten oder Endoprothesen.The invention is set out below discussed different examples of connections of two parts, these Parts are parts of surgical devices, for example of orthopedic Holding devices, such as those used in the spinal area, of implants or endoprostheses.
Ein häufiges Problem bei derartigen chirurgischen Vorrichtungen, insbesondere bei orthopädischen Haltevorrichtungen, ist die Festlegung eines Stabes relativ zu einem Klemmelement, welches dann gegebenenfalls zusätzlich mit einem weiteren Stab verbunden ist, so daß aus diesen Stäben Haltevorrichtungen der gewünschten Form aufgebaut werden können, die dann über Knochenschrauben mit den zu stabilisierenden Knochenstrukturen verbunden werden. Es ist zum Beispiel häufig notwendig, derartige Stäbe mit Pedikelschrauben zu verbinden, die in den Wirbelkörper der Wirbelsäule eingeschraubt werden, und diese Verbindung zwischen Pedikelschrauben und Stäben wird über spezielle Klemmstücke hergestellt.A common problem with such surgical devices, in particular with orthopedic holding devices, is the fixing of a rod relative to a clamping element, which is then optionally also connected to a further rod, so that holding devices of the desired shape can be built up from these rods, which can then be built over Bone screws are connected to the bone structures to be stabilized. For example, it is often necessary to connect such rods with pedicle screws, which are screwed into the vertebral body of the spine, and this connection between pedicle screws and rods is established via special clamping pieces.
