Abstract

This femoral implant comprises a body (3) which is continued towards the top by a rod (2) for connection to the ball of an artificial hip joint, and towards the bottom by a shaft (4). The body (3) has a double convergence, on the one hand, in horizontal cross-section, towards its medial side, and, on the other hand, towards the bottom, in a side view.

Description

La présente invention est relative à un implant fémoral du type comprenant un corps qui se prolonge vers le haut par une tige de liaison à la rotule d'un cotyle artificiel et vers le bas par une queue. The present invention relates to a femoral implant of the type comprising a body which is extended upwards by a connecting rod to the patella of an artificial acetabulum and downwards by a tail.

Il est bien connu que la stabilité dans le temps des implants fémoraux varie considérablement avec la conception de ces implants. It is well known that the stability over time of femoral implants varies considerably with the design of these implants.

L'invention a pour but de fournir un implant fémoral possédant une stabilité dans le temps amélio- rée. The object of the invention is to provide a femoral implant having improved stability over time.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un implant fémoral du type précité, caractérisé en ce que le corps présente une double convergence, d'une part, en section horizontale, vers son côté médial, d'autre part, en vue de côté, vers le bas. To this end, the invention relates to a femoral implant of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the body has a double convergence, on the one hand, in horizontal section, towards its medial side, on the other hand, with a view to side, down.

Suivant d'autres caractéristiques
- chaque convergence forme un angle au sommet de l'ordre de 80
- le corps comporte sur chaque face avant et arrière trois nervures verticales
-- la largeur à la base des nervures augmente de la nervure médiale à la nervure latérale
- les nervures sont séparées par deux rainures de largeur uniforme entre elles et le long de chacune d'elles ;
- les trois nervures ont leurs extrémités supérieures à peu près au même niveau, voisin d'une face d'extrémité supérieure horizontale du corps
- les nervures médiale et centrale ont respectivement comme longueur environ 40 mm et environ 68 mm ;
- la queue a, en vue de côté, la même largeur que la partie du corps située entre les nervures.
According to other characteristics
- each convergence forms an angle at the top of the order of 80
- the body has on each front and rear face three vertical ribs
- the width at the base of the ribs increases from the medial rib to the lateral rib
- The ribs are separated by two grooves of uniform width between them and along each of them;
- the three ribs have their upper ends at approximately the same level, close to a horizontal upper end face of the body
- The medial and central ribs are respectively about 40 mm and about 68 mm long;
- the tail has, in side view, the same width as the part of the body located between the ribs.

Un exemple de réalisation de l'invention va maintenant être décrit en regard du dessin annexé, sur lequel
- la Fig. 1 est une vue en élévation, de face, d'un implant fémoral conforme à l'invention;
- la Fig. 2 est une vue en élévation latérale prise suivant la flèche Il de la Fig.1 ; et
- la Fig.3 est une vue prise en coupe suivant la ligne III-III de la Fig.l.
An exemplary embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the attached drawing, in which
- Fig. 1 is an elevational front view of a femoral implant according to the invention;
- Fig. 2 is a side elevational view taken along the arrow II in Fig.1; and
- Fig.3 is a sectional view along line III-III of Fig.l.

L'implant fémoral I représenté au dessin est destiné à être implanté dans la zone métaphysaire d'un fémur et à coopérer avec un cotyle artificiel (non représenté) pour constituer une prothèse de hanche. The femoral implant I shown in the drawing is intended to be implanted in the metaphyseal area of a femur and to cooperate with an artificial acetabulum (not shown) to constitute a hip prosthesis.

L'implant 1 est constitué d'une seule pièce en un matériau approprié pour cette application, par exemple d'une pièce forgée en alliage de titane, d'aluminium et de vanadium. Certaines parties de cette pièce reçoivent un revêtement, comme on le décrira plus loin. The implant 1 consists of a single piece of a material suitable for this application, for example a forged piece of titanium, aluminum and vanadium alloy. Certain parts of this part are coated, as will be described later.

L'implant 1 comprend trois parties, à savoir, de haut en bas
- une tige de liaison 2 à section circulaire, dont l'extrémité libre (non représentée) est adaptée pour coopérer avec la rotule du cotyle précité
- un corps principal nervuré 3 ; et
- une queue 4.
Implant 1 has three parts, namely, from top to bottom
- A connecting rod 2 of circular section, the free end (not shown) is adapted to cooperate with the ball of the above-mentioned cup
- a ribbed main body 3; and
- a tail 4.

Le corps 3 et la queue 4 sont symétriques par rapport à un plan vertical P parallèle au plan de la Fig.l. The body 3 and the tail 4 are symmetrical with respect to a vertical plane P parallel to the plane of Fig.l.

Le corps 3 peut être décrit comme un bloc de forme allongée verticalement, ayant en vue de côté (Figure 3) une largeur constante 1 égale par exemple à 9 mm, sur chaque face avant et arrière duquel font saillie trois nervures verticales, à savoir une nervure médiale 5, une nervure centrale 6 et une nervure latérale 7, ces trois nervures partant sensiblement du sommet du corps 3, lequel est défini par une face horizontale 8. The body 3 can be described as a block of vertically elongated shape, having in side view (Figure 3) a constant width 1 equal for example to 9 mm, on each front and rear face of which project three vertical ribs, namely a medial rib 5, a central rib 6 and a lateral rib 7, these three ribs extending substantially from the top of the body 3, which is defined by a horizontal face 8.

En vue de face (Fig.l), le corps 3 est délimité : supérieurement par une ligne horizontale correspondant à la face 8, cette ligne se raccordant à son extrémité médiale à la base de la tige 2 par un arrondi ; du côté latéral par une ligne légèrement bombée et qui comprend un segment supérieur 9 et un segment inférieur 10 sensiblement rectilignes reliés par un arrondi il de grand rayon ; et du côté médial par un court segment vertical 12 relié à la base de la tige 2 par un arrondi, suivi vers le bas d'un arc de courbe concave 13 de grand rayon. In front view (Fig.l), the body 3 is delimited: superiorly by a horizontal line corresponding to the face 8, this line connecting at its medial end to the base of the rod 2 by a rounded shape; on the lateral side by a slightly curved line and which comprises an upper segment 9 and a lower segment 10 substantially straight connected by a rounded il of large radius; and on the medial side by a short vertical segment 12 connected to the base of the rod 2 by a rounding, followed downwards by an arc of concave curve 13 of large radius.

Dans cette même vue, la queue 4 est délimitée par le prolongement rectiligne 14 du segment 10 et par un prolongement rectiligne 15 de l'arrondi 13 ces deux prolongements convergent légèrement l'un vers l'autre, jusqu a un arrondi final 16 de l'implant. In this same view, the tail 4 is delimited by the rectilinear extension 14 of the segment 10 and by a rectilinear extension 15 of the rounded 13 these two extensions converge slightly towards each other, until a final rounding 16 of the 'implant.

Du fait de la configuration du corps 3 décrite ci-dessus, les nervures 5 à 7 n'existent simultanément que dans une zone intermédiaire du corps 3. Due to the configuration of the body 3 described above, the ribs 5 to 7 exist simultaneously only in an intermediate zone of the body 3.

Au-dessus de cette zone, le côté médial de la nervure 5 se fond dans la zone de raccordement du corps avec la tige 2, tandis qu'en descendant, la nervure 5 disparait, puis il en est de même de la partie médiale de la nervure 6. Malgré une certaine imprécision due aux arrondis qui raccordent entre elles les différentes surfaces de l'implant, les hauteurs h5 et h6 des nervures 5 et 6, mesurées à partir de la face supérieure 8 du corps 3, sont de façon optimale, respectivement, environ 40 mm et environ 68 mm. La nervure a une plus grande longueur que la nervure 6.Above this zone, the medial side of the rib 5 merges into the zone of connection of the body with the rod 2, while on descending, the rib 5 disappears, then it is the same for the medial part of the rib 6. Despite a certain imprecision due to the rounding which connects the different surfaces of the implant, the heights h5 and h6 of the ribs 5 and 6, measured from the upper face 8 of the body 3, are optimally , respectively, about 40 mm and about 68 mm. The rib has a greater length than the rib 6.

La Fig.3 montre la section horizontale du corps 3 dans la région où les trois nervures existent. Fig.3 shows the horizontal section of the body 3 in the region where the three ribs exist.

Comme on le voit, les nervures ont une hauteur crois- sante de la nervure médiale 5 à la nervure latérale 7, et elles sont séparées par des rainures 17 de largeur à la base uniforme entre elles et sur toute la longueur de chacune d'elles. Une droite imaginaire D tangente aux sommets des trois nervures situées d'un même côté converge vers le côté médial suivant une inclinaison, par rapport au plan de symétrie P, de l'ordre de 40 Cette convergence reste constante tout le long des rainures. Par ailleurs, la largeur à la base des nervures, constante sur toute la hauteur de chaque nervure, augmente de la nervure 5 à la nervure 7, et les flancs des nervures sont en légère dépouille.As can be seen, the ribs have an increasing height from the medial rib 5 to the lateral rib 7, and they are separated by grooves 17 of width at the base uniform between them and over the entire length of each of them. . An imaginary straight line D tangent to the vertices of the three ribs situated on the same side converges towards the medial side according to an inclination, with respect to the plane of symmetry P, of the order of 40 This convergence remains constant all along the grooves. Furthermore, the width at the base of the ribs, constant over the entire height of each rib, increases from rib 5 to rib 7, and the sides of the ribs are slightly undercut.

Comme on le voit suivant la vue de côté de la Fig.2, la hauteur de chaque nervure décroît de haut en bas, suivant une inclinaison sur la verticale qui est de tordre de 40 La Fig.2 montre de plus que la queue 4 possède la même largeur I que le corps 4, cette largeur étant légèrement inférieure au diamètre de la tige 2. As seen in the side view of Fig.2, the height of each rib decreases from top to bottom, following an inclination on the vertical which is to twist 40 Fig.2 shows more that the tail 4 has the same width I as the body 4, this width being slightly less than the diameter of the rod 2.

Le corps 3 peut être rendu rugueux par projection plasma d'une couche de titane revêtue elle-même par une couche d'hydroxylapatite. The body 3 can be made rough by plasma spraying with a layer of titanium itself coated with a layer of hydroxylapatite.

La forme de l'implant fémoral décrite cidessus-assure une adaptation optimale de cet implant à la forme naturelle de la cavité médullaire du fémur et une stabilité améliorée de l'implant au cours du temps.  The shape of the femoral implant described above-ensures optimal adaptation of this implant to the natural shape of the medullary cavity of the femur and improved stability of the implant over time.
