Definitions
- the invention relates to an intervertebral disc prosthesis according to claim 1 and a method therefor according to claim 23.
- the intervertebral disc behaves like a 'natural ball bearing' and allows the vertebrae to move in different directions because the joint has elastic properties.
- the intervertebral disc serves as a buffer for the forces that move up and down the human backbone. With normal intervertebral disc function, the joint facets on both sides of the spinous processes are kept at the correct distance from each other. The intervertebral disc ensures that the foramen is large enough so that the nerve is not obstructed.
- Two ligaments run on the front and on the back of the actual vertebral body.
- the intervertebral disc and sliver merge with the edges of the vertebrae above and below, forming an anchor or a kind of support corset for the intervertebral disc and the two interconnected vertebrae.
- the intervertebral disc merges with the band, but not with the front vertebral margin.
- the ligament pulls up and down and forms a very firm connection with the front of the vertebral bodies, but spares the vertebral bodies. This variation in the anatomical attachment of the intervertebral disc with the vertebrae determines the function of the intervertebral disc.
- the type of attachment creates a potential space between the intervertebral disc and the vertebra at the front, but not at the back. If two types of tissue in the body are not firmly connected, a potential anatomical space is created between them. In the movement that compresses the vertebrae with force, a large part of the force is directed backwards. Since it is the task of the intervertebral disc to transmit the force, it would undoubtedly move with the force if it were free to move.
- the intervertebral disc is connected to the front longitudinal ligament, which behaves like the bow of a bow. The longitudinal ligament pulls the intervertebral disc back as it pulls the arrow.
- intervertebral discs can become besieged or that the inner gelatinous nucleus (nucleus pulposus) can escape through cracks in the connective tissue-like, cartilaginous, outer fiber ring (annulus fibrosus).
- the intervertebral disc can partially narrow into the intervertebral holes (foramina intervertebralia) or the spinal canal.
- This prolapse can also be medial or lateral dorsal.
- prolapses are most common on the L4-L5-S1 and C6-C7 vertebrales. If such prolapse is not treated, irreversible pressure damage to nerve roots (foramina) or cross-sectional lesions will result.
- symptomatic physiotherapy e.g. Physiotherapy or massage do not promise success, the intervertebral disc (discus intervertebralis) must be surgically removed.
- a 3-part intervertebral implant which consists of an upper part, a lower part and a joint insert which can be inserted between them.
- the joint insert has a spherical support surface which permits a certain pivotability of the upper part and lower part and thus also allows the adjacent vertebral bodies to pivot.
- the comb-like projections attached to the upper and lower part serve for anchoring in the corresponding vertebral bodies, in which the receptacles have to be incorporated for this purpose, which is not only complex but also a weakening of the vertebral bodies. The necessary separation of the ligament leads to a loss of stability in the spine.
- Another disadvantage is that the intervertebral implant consists of 3 parts.
- the object of the invention is to provide an intervertebral disc prosthesis which serves as an intervertebral disc replacement and which further ensures the mobility of the two adjacent vertebrae. Another task is a procedure for this.
- this object is achieved with an intervertebral disc prosthesis according to the wording according to claim 1 and a method for this according to the wording according to claim 23.
- FIG. 1 perspective exploded view of an intervertebral disc prosthesis
- FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of the intervertebral disc prosthesis according to FIG. 1
- FIG. 7 shows a sectional view AA to FIG. 6
- the intervertebral disc prosthesis according to the invention is used between two vertebral bodies of the spine, is implanted there and serves as an intervertebral disc replacement.
- the original intervertebral disc height is reached again, the nerve root foramina returns to its original size and mobility is restored.
- vertebral bodies lying one above the other are no longer stiffened, which is particularly advantageous compared to known surgical techniques.
- This prosthesis is implanted retroperitoneally. This means that spinal nerves, spinal and articular processes are no longer damaged or removed. All ligaments / ligaments (Flavum, Capsulary, Interspinous, Supraspinous, Intertransverse and the two Longitudinal ligaments (anterior and posterior longitudinal ligament)) are retained. No more muscles are damaged. This means that the tension and function of these muscles and ligaments enable posture and flexible activity that maintains the healthy stability and curvature of the spine. This new and simple retroperitoneal introduction massively shortens the operation time, the blood loss is less, there is no risk of injury from the dural sac and the spinal nerves.
- FIG. 1 shows an exploded view of an intervertebral disc prosthesis 100 which consists of an upper part 1 and a lower part 2.
- the upper part 1 has an essentially convexly curved surface 3 on its upper side, while the lower side at least partially has an essentially spherical or spherical surface 4.
- the lower part 2 has an essentially convexly curved surface 3 'on its underside, while the upper side of which at least partially has a substantially downward spherical or spherical surface 4'.
- surface 4 is convex while surface 4 'is concave.
- the surfaces 4, 4 ' can also have an inverted shape, namely the surface 4 concave and the surface 4' convex.
- the spherical surfaces 4, 4 ' have an essentially identical spherical radius, so that the upper part 1 and the lower part 2 can lie against one another at least partially essentially without joints and thus form a two-part intervertebral disk prosthesis.
- the parts 1, 2 move on the spherical surfaces 4, 4 ', in which the mobility of the intervertebral disc prosthesis is based.
- the shape of the convexly curved surfaces 3, 3 ' is selected such that they are adapted to the anatomical requirements of an intervertebral space. They are usually slightly convexly curved, but can also be planar in the limit.
- the spherical or spherical surfaces 4, 4 ' usually cover a wide area of the bottom or top of the parts 1, 2. In the borderline case, they cover the entire bottom or top. Spherical or spherical can be strictly geometrical or with slight deviations, especially for the convex part, which can be advantageous.
- the spherical radii of the spherical surfaces 4, 4 ' are either exactly the same or allow slight deviations, especially for the radius of the convex surface, which in turn can be advantageous. It follows from this that part 1 and part 2 either lie tightly against one another or, which is the case with slightly different ball radii, have a more or less pronounced joint in the outer regions of the surfaces 4, 4 '.
- the term "essentially joint-free" is to be understood in this sense.
- the materials for parts 1, 2 are plastics, carbon fiber-reinforced plastics, metals, or metal alloys and ceramic materials: plastics such as polyether ether ketones (PEEK), polyether ketone ether ketone ketones (PEKEKK) and polysulfones (PS) are preferred, and particularly preferred as the composite material carbon fiber reinforced composites of polyether ether ketone (CFK / PEEK) and polyether ketone ether ketone ketones (CFK / PEKEKK), which are also known under the names ULTRAPEK and OSTAPEK.
- PEEK polyether ether ketones
- PEKEKK polyether ketone ether ketone ketones
- PS polysulfones
- stainless or rust-resistant metals and their alloys are used, preferably titanium and its alloys, such as the titanium alloy Ti6-AI4-V in accordance with DIN ISO standard 5832 -3, or Co-Cr-Ni alloys according to DIN ISO standard 5832-4.
- Zircon ceramics, Al 2 0 3 bio-ceramics and hardened ceramics (silicon nitride) are used as ceramic materials.
- the parts 1, 2 can also consist of different materials.
- the formation of a sliding pairing of the materials in relation to the adjoining surfaces 4, 4 ' is a guiding principle in order to meet the requirements for compatibility, wear and service life. If the same materials are used, the surface of one part is usually provided with an additional coating, as will be described later.
- Parts 1, 2 can also be manufactured as composite parts.
- a first part of the composite with surface 3, 3 ' e.g. consist of a Co-Cr-Ni alloy in connection with a second part of the composite with a surface 4, 4 'of a ceramic.
- FIG. 2 shows a view of the intervertebral disc prosthesis according to FIG. 1 between two Vertebral bodies.
- the surfaces 4, 4 ' only partially occupy the underside or top of the parts (1) or (2). This creates zones 17, 17 'on the underside or top of the parts (1) or (2). These zones are delimited on the one hand by the surfaces 4, 4 'and on the other hand by edges 18, 18' of the intervertebral disc prosthesis.
- the geometry of the zones 17, 17 ' is essential since they ultimately define or restrict the mobility of the vertebral bodies relative to one another.
- the materials for the coatings of the convexly curved surfaces 3, 3 ' are a hydroxyl apatite ceramic (HAK) coating, a hydroxyl apatite ceramic (HAK) coating with an open tantalum or titanium or a tri-calcium phosphate ( TCP) coating in question, whereby the long-term properties of the intervertebral disc prosthesis are advantageously influenced.
- HAK hydroxyl apatite ceramic
- HAK hydroxyl apatite ceramic
- TCP tri-calcium phosphate
- the spherical surfaces 4, 4 'of the intervertebral disc prosthesis are advantageously completely or at least partially provided on one side each with a further coating which efficiently supports the sliding or friction properties of part 1 in or on part 2. That Good sliding properties are achieved and wear is kept low in favor of a long service life.
- FIG. 3 shows a side view of FIG. 2. The parts 1, 2 and the two vertebrae L4, L5 can be seen.
- FIG. 4 shows a top view of FIG. 2 without vertebral body L4 and without part 1.
- the vertebral body L5 and part 2 can be seen with the oval, spherical surface 4 '.
- 5A-5C show the spherical surface with different types of coatings in a perspective view.
- 5A-5C show different possibilities for a partial covering of the spherical surfaces.
- the coating is cruciform and accordingly does not cover areas 12 at the edges of the spherical surfaces 4 or 4 '.
- the surface pressure on this cross-shaped coating is correspondingly greater than with the full-surface coating.
- the coating is strip-shaped and therefore does not cover areas 12 between the strips.
- the strips are advantageously overlapping, i.e. they cross and form a net-like structure. Stripes running in parallel are also possible.
- the coating is formed in concentric strips and accordingly does not cover areas 12 between the strips.
- the coating can be selected to have a different thickness for each concentric strip, so that a different surface pressure from outside to inside or from inside to outside is taken into account.
- Fig. 6 shows a perspective view of a spherical, concave surface with circular openings.
- the surface 4 rises from the plane which is formed by lines a, b and represents a convexly curved surface, which can be recognized by dashed auxiliary lines c, d.
- the auxiliary lines c, d intersect at a point Z, the the center forms for at least one concentric circle 13.
- circular openings 14 are provided, which are provided for guiding balls (not shown), which will be explained later.
- only two concentric circles 13 and only one circular opening 14 are shown in the second circle.
- Several circles are conceivable on the circumference of which the circular openings are distributed. The latter are advantageously present in an evenly distributed manner.
- a circular opening 14 can also be present in the center Z.
- FIG. 7 shows a sectional representation AA corresponding to FIG. 6 corresponding to FIG. 6.
- the circular openings 14 can be seen, which are located on the circumference of a circle with center Z.
- Introduced spheres 15 protrude from the circular openings 14, which are located in spherical cavities 16 and are rotatably supported therein.
- the balls thus have the function of a ball bearing, because the abutting surface of the second prosthesis part, not shown, is supported by the balls 15 and moves on it relative to the surface 4.
- the spherical cavities 16 can alternatively also be provided in a concave surface 4 '. Again, the adjacent, now convex surface of the second prosthesis part is supported on the balls 15 relative to the concave surface.
- Balls made of the ceramic material silicon nitride are preferably used. Such balls have a particularly hardened surface.
- Fig. 8 shows an intervertebral disc prosthesis with divided parts 1, 2 in section.
- the parts 1, 2 are subdivided and have parts 21, respectively. 22 on, in which adjacent parts 23, respectively. 24 in wells 25, respectively. 26 of parts 1, 2 are embedded.
- a subdivision proves to be advantageous in a freer choice of materials with regard to compatibility on the vertebral side and the sliding pairing of the parts 23, 24 lying against one another.
- a further subdivision of parts 1, 2 into more than two parts is also conceivable.
- the uniform support on the adjoining surfaces 4, 4 ′ proves advantageous at any degree of deflection.
- the structure of the intervertebral disc prosthesis can be modified within wide limits within the scope of this invention. For example, an exchange of part 1 with part 2 is quite possible, which is equivalent to using the intervertebral disc prosthesis on the head.
- Structures of the type described are self-centering between the vertebral bodies. It can therefore be dispensed with any fasteners on the two parts 1 and 2.
- any fasteners on the two parts 1 and 2. not only is the fastening of the prosthesis parts to the vertebral bodies achieved with a screw connection, but also undesirable stress states are generated by the screw connection, which only partially diminish over time and therefore prove to be problematic.
- the holes for receiving the screws reduce the stability of the healthy cancellous bone.
- the advantages of the intervertebral disc prosthesis according to the invention thus result from the fact that after the intervention the mobility of the vertebral bodies is essentially maintained, that less blood loss occurs during the intervention, that a shorter operation time is necessary and that the healing times are shorter with a lower risk.
- Example 1 An intervertebral disc prosthesis according to FIG. 1 has a spherical radius of the surfaces 4, 4 'of 33 mm.
- Parts 1, 2 are made of the carbon fiber reinforced composite polyether ketone ether ketone ketone (CFK / PEKEKK).
- CFRK / PEKEKK carbon fiber reinforced composite polyether ketone ether ketone ketone
- the convexly curved surfaces 3, 3 ' have a tri-calcium phosphate (TCP) coating.
- TCP tri-calcium phosphate
- the spherical surface 4 ' is entirely provided with a 0.6 mm thick coating of high-pressure polyethylene (HD-PE).
- HD-PE high-pressure polyethylene
- Example 2 An intervertebral disc prosthesis essentially according to FIG. 1 has a spherical radius of the surfaces 4, 4 'of 30 mm.
- Parts 1, 2 are made of carbon fiber-reinforced composite polyether ether ketone (CFK / PEEK).
- CFRK / PEEK carbon fiber-reinforced composite polyether ether ketone
- the convexly curved surfaces 3, 3 ' have a hydroxyl apatite ceramic (HAK) coating.
- the spherical surface 4 ' has a 0.45 mm thick coating made of polyethylene (PE) with concentric strips according to FIG. 5C. The area 4 'is thus only partially covered (60%).
- PE polyethylene
- Example 3 An intervertebral disc prosthesis essentially according to FIG. 1 has a spherical radius of the surfaces 4, 4 'of 32 mm.
- Part 1 is manufactured as a composite part.
- the surface 3 is made of a Co-Cr-Ni alloy, to which an Al 2 O 3 bioceramic is attached, which essentially forms the surface 4.
- Part 2 consists of a Co-Cr-Ni alloy, the spherical surface 4 'of which has a 0.5 mm thick coating of high-pressure polyethylene (HD-PE), which is applied in a cross shape according to FIG. 5A. With that the. Area 4 'only partially covered (80%).
- the convexly curved surfaces 3, 3 ' have a hydroxyl apatite ceramic (HAK) coating with an open tantalum.
- HAK hydroxyl apatite ceramic
- Example 4 An intervertebral disc prosthesis essentially according to FIG. 1 has a spherical radius of the surfaces 4, 4 'of 28.5 mm.
- Part 1 is manufactured as a composite part.
- the surface 3 consists of a titanium alloy to which a hardened ceramic is attached as a composite, which essentially forms the surface 4.
- Cavities 16 are introduced into the hardened ceramic of part 1, in which there are balls made of silicon nitride, which protrude from the circular openings 14.
- the convexly curved surfaces 3, 3 ' have a hydroxyl apatite ceramic (HAK coating).
- Part 2 consists of a titanium alloy, the spherical surface 4 'of which has a 0.5 mm thick coating of high-pressure polyethylene (HD-PE) over the entire surface.
- HD-PE high-pressure polyethylene
- Example 5 An intervertebral disc prosthesis essentially according to FIG. 8 has a spherical radius of the surfaces 4, 4 'of 39 mm. Part 1 is divided into parts 21 and 23 and part 2 into parts 22 and 24. Parts 21, 22 are made of titanium and have a hydroxyl apatite ceramic (HAK) coating on their vertebrae with an open tantalum. The parts 23, 24 consist of a zircon ceramic. A method belonging to such an intervertebral disc prosthesis is described below. Prior to an intervention, the spine in the area around the damaged intervertebral disc, in particular the vertebral body, is measured or measured using a scan method, a 3D scan method or a similar, equivalent method.
- a scan method a 3D scan method or a similar, equivalent method.
- Characteristic data of the surfaces of the vertebral bodies on which the intervertebral disc prosthesis comes to rest or rest are determined. Based on the height of the adjacent intact intervertebral discs, or the distance between the adjacent intact vertebral bodies, the original height of the damaged intervertebral disc (intervertebral height) is inferred, or this height is determined by extrapolation. This height corresponds to the height of the intervertebral disc prosthesis, which is composed of parts 1, 2, 23 and 24. All characteristic data are obtained from the raw data of the scanning process by means of a data reduction, which will not be dealt with in any more detail.
- the set of characteristic data is used for the production of the intervertebral disc prosthesis, and for this purpose is usually transmitted electronically to a production center and is used for the production of a patient-specific intervertebral disc prosthesis.
- a spinal disc prosthesis made in this way is perfectly adapted to the vertebral bodies. It is self-centering, requires no additional fixation and can 'grow' or 'grow in' under the best conditions. Migration is therefore impossible.
- the adjacent vertebral bodies are not weakened or injured by any screw holder, which could lead to destabilization. It is essential that such a method is independent of the location of the intervention in terms of time and location.
- the determination of the characteristic data in the scanning process can take place beforehand, ie at almost any point in time before the intervention, while the manufacture of the intervertebral disc prosthesis or its parts takes place at a point which is completely independent of the location of the determination and the intervention.
