Description

椎骨杆及其使用方法
背景技术
椎骨杆常常用于外科手术治疗脊柱疾病,如退行性盘疾病、盘突出、脊柱侧凸或其他弯曲异常和骨折。可采用各种不同类型的外科手术治疗。在一些情况下,采用脊柱融合来抑制椎骨构件之间的相互运动。在另一些情况下,使用动态植入物来保持椎骨构件之间的运动。无论是哪一种外科手术治疗,可将一根或多根杆附连于两个或多个椎骨构件的外侧,可以是在椎骨构件的后面、前面、或侧面。在其他实施方式中,杆附连于椎骨构件而不需要使用动态植入物或脊柱融合。
杆能够在较广泛区域内将应力重新引导离开受损或缺损区域并使脊柱恢复其适当排列。杆还能增加椎体间构建物上的负荷,在骨移植物发生治愈作用时降低转移至相邻椎骨构件的应力,并大致地支撑椎骨构件。
发明内容
本发明涉及椎骨杆及其使用方法。在一个实施方式中,杆包括上部和下部,上部和下部由中部分隔开。中部可包括一个或多个构件,并可具有多种构型。弹性构件可位于中部内。中部和弹性构件能在所述上部和下部运动期间提供可变阻力。在一个实施方式中,上部和下部运动离开第一取向越远,阻力增加。在一个实施方式中,上部和下部的运动程度有限。

具体实施方式
本发明涉及椎骨杆以及支撑一个或多个椎骨构件的方法。杆包括上部、下部和中部。弹性构件可位于中部处。弹性构件可具有多种取向、尺寸、形状、密度、弹性模量和其他材料性质,这取决于上部和下部之间所需的位移。椎骨构件运动期间,弹性构件和/或中部可弹性弯曲以产生稳定力。
图1A示出了一个实施方式的杆10的侧视立体图,而图1B则示出了正视图。杆10包括上部20和下部30,上部20和下部30被中部40所分离。弹性构件60被定位成能够与中部40联合作用以提供轴向和横向柔性。
在一个实施方式中,中部40和弹性构件60在椎骨构件100运动期间提供可变阻力。该阻力能够在弯曲、伸展、侧弯以及旋转的过程中进行的离开中和位置的正常运动范围期间提供动态稳定作用。该阻力可通过将中部40和弹性构件60设置成压缩或拉伸状态来产生。并且,在椎骨构件运动期间,这些元件可在压缩和拉伸状态之间变换。中部40和弹性构件60的刚性可进一步限制运动范围使之不能超出预定的程度。
图2示出了一个实施方式的附连于椎骨构件100的两根杆10。在该实施方式中,杆10位于脊柱后侧,在棘突101相对两侧上。杆10可在其他位置附连于脊柱,包括侧面和前面的位置。杆10也可在各个脊柱链段处附连,包括颅骨基部以及颈区、胸区、腰区和骶区中的椎骨构件100。因此,图2所示仅仅是一种实施方式的代表性例子,还应理解,也可使用单根杆10来支撑椎骨构件100。
在图2所示的实施方式中,杆10通过蒂组件固定于椎骨构件100,所述蒂组件包括蒂螺钉12,蒂螺钉12包括接纳部14和抵盖13。每根杆10的外表面被抓持、钳夹或以其他方式固定在接纳部14内并由抵盖13维持定位。将杆10固定于椎骨构件100的其他机构包括钩、索和其他此类装置。并且,其他类型的保持元件的例子还包括螺纹帽、螺钉和销钉。杆10也可附连于其他构型的板。因此,图2所示示例性的组件仅仅代表了一种类型的附连机构。
上部20和下部30可具有各种形状、尺寸和物理性质。在一个实施方式中,上部20和下部30基本上相同。在一个实施方式中,上部20和下部30之一或两者基本上是包括延伸长度和圆形截面形状的圆柱形。在一个实施方式中,上部20和下部30之一或两者基本上刚性。上部20和下部30之一或两者基本上为直的,包括连续的弯曲或包括一个或多个离散的弯曲部分。
中部40位于上部20和下部30之间。在一个实施方式中,中部40以及上部20和下部30由包括折叠或弯曲构型的单一片材构成。在其他实施方式中,中部40附连于上部20和下部30。图3显示了一个实施方式,中部40由独立构件41构成,该独立构件41附连于上部20和下部30。用一个或多个紧固件16将构件41附连于上部20。紧固件16的实施方式可包括铆钉、销钉、螺钉等。在图3所示的实施方式中,构件41以另一种方式附连于下部30,例如粘合剂、焊接、硬焊等。中部40可由一个或多个构件41构成。在图3所示实施方式中,中部40由单一构件41构成。
图4的实施方式显示了由两个独立构件41a、41b构成的中部40。在该实施方式中,第一构件41a连接上部20,第二构件41b连接下部30。构件41a、41b以上文所述的方式连接在一起。
中部40可具有各种宽度。在图1B所示的实施方式中,中部40的宽度w大于上部20和下部30的宽度w’。在其他实施方式中,中部40的宽度w小于或等于上部20和下部30的宽度w’。在一个实施方式中,中部40的宽度w最大一直到上部20和下部30的宽度w’的四倍。中部40的宽度w可变化,如图1B的实施方式所示。在另一实施方式中,宽度w基本上恒定。
中部40也可相对于上部20和下部30在多个位置处定位。在图3所示的实施方式中,中部40横向偏离上部20和下部30。在图6A所示的另一个实施方式中,中部40与上部20和下部30轴向对齐。
在一个实施方式中,中部40可包括构件18,构件18包括第一部分43和第二部分44。第一部分43和第二部分44构成构件18的全部或有限的一部分。在图4所示的实施方式中,中部40具有基本上平面的第一部分43和第二部分44。在其他实施方式中,中部40具有图5所示的弯曲形状。在各种其他实施方式中,例如图3所示,中部40是平面形状和弯曲形状的组合。
在一些实施方式中,中部40由单一构件18构成。在图6A和6B显示的实施方式中,中部40由包括弯曲形状的单一构件18构成。图6C、6D和6E显示的实施方式中,中部40包括具有平面和弯曲部分的单一构件18。
中部40的各个实施方式可包括多重构件18。图6F显示的一个实施方式中,包括弯曲的第一构件18a和第二构件18b。图6G和6H显示的实施方式中具有第一构件18a和第二构件18b,这两个构件各自包括弯曲部分和平面部分。在具有多重构件18的实施方式中,构件18可由单一片材构成,或者由紧固在一起的多个不同的片材构成。而且,多重构件18可相互分离,或者紧密靠拢。支持构件18也可具有重叠构型。该重叠可以是水平方向、垂直方向或者两种方向都有。图6A的构件18和图6G的构件18a、18b显示的实施方式具有垂直重叠,这些构件各自的多重部分在上部20和下部30之间垂直重叠。
图6B、6C和6E的构件18也包括垂直重叠。图6D的构件18显示了一个实施方式的水平重叠。如果一根垂直于上部20和下部30的线的线延伸穿过构件至少两次,则发生水平重叠。一些实施方式既有水平重叠又有垂直重叠。包括多重构件的中部40包括由结构所导致的水平重叠。构件18a、18b可各自包括水平和/或垂直重叠。
在图1A所示的一个实施方式中,中部40包括一开口侧70。在不同的实施方式中,开口侧70面向前侧或后侧方向。在一个实施方式中,包括中部40的多重构件18之间形成有内部部分。内部部分可具有由构件18所包围的两侧。在一个实施方式中,内部部分70的侧面是开放的。在另一个实施方式中,内部部分70完全封闭。
多重中部40可沿杆10的长度定位。在一个图2所示的实施方式中,每根杆10包括两个独立的中部40。中部40可包括相同或不同的尺寸、形状和结构。中间部分42可沿杆10的长度在中部40间定位。在一个实施方式中,以如上文上部20和下部30中所述的方式来构建中间部分42。
上部20和下部30以及中部40可由多种材料构成,包括金属、聚合物、陶瓷及其组合。金属的例子包括钛、钛合金如镍-钛、不锈钢、和钴铬。聚合物的例子包括聚硅氧烷、聚硅氧烷-聚氨酯共聚物、聚烯烃橡胶、PEEK、PEEK-碳复合物、聚酰亚胺、聚醚酰亚胺、聚氨酯、以及它们的组合。聚氨酯的例子包括热塑性聚氨酯、脂肪族聚氨酯、链段聚氨酯、亲水聚氨酯、聚醚-氨基甲酸酯、聚碳酸酯-氨基甲酸酯、聚硅氧烷聚醚氨基甲酸酯、聚乙烯醇水凝胶、聚丙烯酰胺水凝胶和聚丙烯酸水凝胶。陶瓷材料的例子包括磷酸钙、羟基磷灰石、HAPCP、氧化铝和锆。
中部40提供对抗上部20和下部30的运动的阻力。上部20和下部30之一或两者的运动可导致中部40变形。在一个实施方式中,上部20和下部30的运动期间,阻力基本上恒定。在另一个实施方式中,当上部20和下部30之一或两者从第一中和位置进一步离开时,阻力增加。中部40的形状也可能影响阻力。在一个实施方式中,上部20和下部30之间沿第一方向的相对运动导致第一程度的阻力,沿第二相反方向的运动导致第二不同程度的阻力。在一个实施方式中,可利用阻力差来使对椎骨构件100沿一个方向的运动(例如屈曲)的限制比沿另一方向的运动(例如,伸展)更多。
弹性构件60可位于中部40内,其具有刚性以提供对抗上部20和下部30运动的阻力。弹性构件60可分担施加于杆10上的负载,并可防止中部40的疲劳破裂。弹性构件60可施加基本上线性或非线性的阻力以对抗上部20和下部30的运动。
弹性构件60可由各种不同的材料构成。构件60可具有弹性并在上部20和下部30的运动期间改变形状。这种材料的例子包括具有弹性或类似橡胶的聚合物、水凝胶或其他亲水聚合物、或它们的组合。尤其合适的弹性体包括:聚硅氧烷、聚氨酯、聚硅氧烷和聚氨酯的共聚物、聚烯烃如聚异丁烯和聚异戊二烯、氯丁二烯橡胶、腈、硬橡胶以及它们的组合。聚氨酯的例子包括热塑性聚氨酯、脂肪族聚氨酯、链段聚氨酯、亲水聚氨酯、聚醚-氨基甲酸酯、聚碳酸酯-氨基甲酸酯和聚硅氧烷聚醚氨基甲酸酯。其他合适的亲水聚合物包括聚乙烯醇水凝胶、聚丙烯酰胺水凝胶、聚丙烯酸水凝胶、聚(N-乙烯基-2-吡咯烷酮)水凝胶、聚甲基丙烯酸羟乙酯水凝胶、和天然来源的物质如胶原和多糖,多糖为例如透明质酸和含交联羧基的多糖,以及它们的组合。
在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60连接于中部40。弹性构件60可用机械、紧固件连接,例如螺钉、销钉、铆钉、系链、套管、索缆等。在另一个实施方式中,用粘合剂连接弹性构件60。在一个实施方式中,中部40包括粗糙表面、脊、齿等以维持弹性构件60的定位。在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60具有可附连于中部40的形状。在一个具体的实施方式中,弹性构件60包括附连于从中部40延伸出的延伸部的楔形凹进部分。
在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60同时连接于中部40的第一部分43和第二部分44。如果同时连接于第一和第二部分43、44,则弹性构件60能提供对抗在屈曲、伸展、侧弯和旋转期间可能发生的向内或向外运动的阻力。在上部20和下部30的向内运动的过程中,弹性构件60被压缩并提供对抗向内运动的阻力。在上部和下部30向外运动的过程中,弹性构件60被拉伸以提供阻力。在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60在椎骨构件伸展期间发生压缩,而在椎骨构件屈曲期间发生拉伸。
在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60连接于第一部分43和第二部分44之一,弹性构件60提供对抗向内运动的阻力。然而,弹性构件60在上部20和下部30向外运动期间可能不发生拉伸,对抗这一向外运动的阻力被局限于中部40。
在各种实施方式中,弹性构件60由单一构件构成,如图7A-7D所示。图7A所示一个实施方式的弹性构件60具有基本上矩形的形状。图7B显示了基本上C-形的弹性构件60,基部背向支持构件18。图7C显示的弹性构件60包括接触第二部分44的矩形第一表面和四个向上逐渐缩小的平面侧壁。图7D所示的实施方式具有不规则非对称的形状。
弹性构件60也可包括两个或多个独立构件。独立构件可具有相同的结构,或者由各自具有不同的刚性的不同的材料构成。图7E所示实施方式具有三个独立的弹性构件60a、60b、60c。每个弹性构件60a、60b、60c各自独立,并基本上为圆形,该圆形可以是圆柱形、球形或圆锥形。图7F所示实施方式具有围绕第二弹性构件60b延伸的第一弹性构件60a。在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60a、60b连接在一起。
在杆10上无外力的中和状态下,弹性构件60可具有多种高度H。在一个实施方式中,高度H的大小被设置成用于使构件60在两个部分43、44间延伸并接触这两个部分。在一个实施方式中,整个弹性构件60的高度H可基本上相同。在其他实施方式中,如图8和9所示,高度H可沿弹性构件60变化。图8所包括的弹性构件60的高度H随着远离支持构件18而减小,而图9所示弹性构件60的高度H随着远离支持构件18而增大。
装置10能提供对抗变形的可变阻力。该可变阻力在椎骨运动初始程度时的阻力较小,但会施加较大的阻力以减小较大程度的椎骨运动。例如,装置10可被设计成在上部20和下部30初始运动程度时提供极小的阻力。而在上部20和下部30的运动超出初始程度时对椎骨构件施加较大程度的阻力。在一些实施方式中,弹性构件60和中部40的刚性随运动程度的增加而增加。离开初始第一位置越远,各个构件所施加阻力的量越大。
对抗向内运动的可变阻力也可由弹性构件60的高度产生。在一个实施方式中,高度H小于开口70的高度(即构件60不是与部分43、44都接触)。对抗上部20和下部30初始运动的阻力被隔离在中部40中。弹性构件60不会影响刚性直到它接触中部40的两个部分43、44并开始弹性变形。在一个实施方式中,初始部分运动程度期间,变形限于中部40。超出初始程度的运动造成除中部40继续变形外部分43、44也开始变形,这导致装置刚性更大并且对进一步运动的阻力增加。弹性构件60的形状和大小可进一步引起针对变形的可变阻力。部分43、44与弹性构件60之间较大的接触程度可导致较大的阻力。例如,采用图8和9所示的实施方式,弹性构件60的尖头形状能够在部分43、44向内运动初始程度期间产生较小的阻力。而部分43、44的进一步向内运动则导致弹性构件60较大程度的变形,造成较大的阻力。
可变阻力也可通过多重弹性元件来实现。图10所示实施方式具有两个中部40。第一中部40包括两个独立的弹性构件60a和60b。在部分43a、43b向内运动期间,内部弹性构件60a首先被接触,从而产生第一阻力程度。第二弹性构件60b没有被部分43a接触,直到构件60a被压缩超出预定程度。接着,这种压缩导致弹性构件60b变形,产生附加的阻力程度。第二中部40包括单个弹性构件,该弹性构件由具有不同刚性的第一材料60a和第二材料60d构成。部分43b、44b的初始压缩导致第一材料60c变形从而产生第一阻力。进一步的压缩导致第一材料60c和第二材料60d变形,它们一起提供附加的阻力。
图11A和11B显示了另一个实施方式,具有位于部分43、44之间的第一构件60a和第二构件60b。如图11A所示,构件60b长度较大,并且当杆10处于没有外力存在的中和取向时处于松弛构型。最初由第一构件60a和中部40来对抗部分43、44的初始向外运动。随着部分43、44进一步向外运动,构件60b被拉紧。超出该程度的运动则导致构件60b伸展,从而通过第一构件60a、第二构件60b和中部40的联合作用来对抗进一步的运动。
构件60a、60b可由相同或不同的材料构成。在一个实施方式中,构件60b由非弹性材料构成,用作控制向外运动程度的限制件。在该实施方式中,部分43、44运动分离一定程度,直到构件60b被拉紧。然后,构件60b的非弹性性质可阻止部分43、44进一步向外运动超出该程度。在一个实施方式中,构件60b一旦被拉紧立即限制进一步的运动,例如在金属构件上所发生的。在另一个实施方式中,构件60b在被拉紧后提供少量的额外向外运动,然后终止进一步的运动。一个例子包括纺织物,它能够在构件60b被拉紧后稍微扩张一定程度。
图11A和11B所示实施方式的限制构件60b可由多种材料构成,包括金属、聚合物和陶瓷。
金属的例子包括钛和不锈钢。聚合物的例子包括纤维和机织或编织的基于织物的产品。陶瓷的例子是编织构型的碳纤维。
弹性构件60可以各种程度填充上部20和下部30之间的空间。在一个实施方式中,构件60填充有限量的中部40。在图12所示的另一个实施方式中,弹性构件60基本上充满整个内部部分70。在该实施方式中,空隙78位于弹性构件60内。在一个实施方式中,空隙78包括特定形状和尺寸以控制弹性构件60的支撑能力。空隙78可以基本上没有材料,或者可填充有不同于弹性构件60的材料的材料。如图12所示,空隙78可位于弹性构件60的内部,或者可沿一边缘定位,如图13所示。
限制件能防止上部20和下部30的运动超出预定程度。图14显示了一个实施方式,刚性限制构件79位于两个部分43、44之间的中部40内。上部20和下部30之一或两者的运动可导致部分43、44向内运动,并导致弹性构件60变形。在预定的运动程度下,部分43接触限制构件79的顶部边缘,阻止进一步的向内运动。限制构件79可具有多种不同的形状和取向。
另一种限制性的实施方式如图15A和15B所示。臂92、93被定位成与部分43和44相对。臂92、93在第一位置(例如中性状态)下包括分离的边缘,形成间隙49,如图15A所示。这允许部分43、44在椎骨运动期间向内运动有限的程度。预定程度的向内运动后,边缘相互接触,如图15B所示,并且进一步的向内运动被阻止。
在图16所示的一个实施方式中,套管85围绕中部40延伸。在一个实施方式中,套管85的作用是使弹性材料60保持在中部40内。套管85可进一步提供对抗上部20和下部30运动的阻力。在一个实施方式中,套管85施加对抗中部40向外运动的阻力。套管85可由弹性、半弹性或非弹性材料构成。套管可是实心的,例如由聚硅氧烷构成;可以编织或机织,例如聚酯编织或机织;或者是不同材料或结构的组合。
也可使用系链150为装置10提供额外的阻力。在一个实施方式中,例如图17所示的实施方式中,系链150延伸穿过开放侧70并附连于第一部分20和第二部分30。系链150在上部20和下部30向外运动期间提供阻力。在其他实施方式中,多重系链150延伸穿过开放侧70。系链150可具有各种宽度和形状,这取决于所应用的场合。在一个实施方式中,系链150由弹性材料构成,该材料随椎骨构件100运动而伸展。在一个实施方式中,系链150由非弹性材料构成以防止运动超出预定的程度。在另一个实施方式中,一根或多根系链150连接于弹性构件60。在一个实施方式中,系链150完全包含在弹性构件60内。在一个实施方式中,系链150完全或部分位于弹性构件60的外表面上。在另一个实施方式中,系链150从弹性构件60向外延伸。连接于弹性构件60的一根或多根系链150能够在椎骨运动期间提供附加的阻力。
图18显示了另一个实施方式,弹性构件60接触上部20和下部30。在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60与构件18间隔开。在另一个实施方式中,弹性构件60也接触构件18。
如果弹性构件60由弹性材料、例如水凝胶或其他类似的亲水材料构成,它还可递送所需的药物。在一个实施方式中,在弹性构件60的变形期间递送药物。药物可以是用于治疗各种脊柱疾病的药物,所述疾病包括退行性盘疾病、脊柱关节炎、脊柱感染、脊柱肿瘤和骨质疏松症。所述药物包括抗生素,镇痛药,抗炎药,包括甾体,以及它们的组合。其他药物是本领域技术人员熟知的。这些药物也是以治疗有效量使用。治疗有效量可由本领域技术人员根据具体病例来确定。
在一个实施方式中,弹性构件60附连于中部40,以在拉伸和压缩位置间运动。椎骨构件100的第一运动期间,弹性构件60被压缩而提供对抗运动的阻力。椎骨构件100的第二运动期间,弹性构件60被拉伸而提供对抗运动的阻力。在一个实施方式中,椎骨运动期间,中部40依次被设置成压缩和拉伸。
空间相对术语如“下”、“下方”、“下侧”、“上方”、“上”等只是为了便于描述,以解释一个元件相对于另一个元件的定位。这些术语旨在包括除附图所示不同取向以外其他不同的装置取向。而且,术语如“第一”、“第二”等也是用于描述各种元件、区域、部分等,而不是限制性的。本说明书中,类似的术语表示类似的元件。
本文所用术语“具有”、“包含”、“包括”、“含有”等是开放可扩展术语,表示所述元件或特征的存在,但不排斥其他元件或特征。量词“一”、“一个”和“这个”旨在包括单数和复数形式,除非另有清楚说明。
本发明可以除本文所述之外的其他特定方式来实现而不背离本发明的范围和基本特征。因此,本发明的实施方式在所有方面都应认为是示例性而非限制性的,所附权利要求的含义范围及其等价范围内的所有改变都包括其中。
