Beschreibung der bevorzugten Ausführungsform Die Gelenk-Prothese P, wie sie in Fig. 1 bis Fig. 6 gezeigt wird, umfaßt ein Gelenkpfannen-Teil ii, aufgenommen vom Acetabulum und ausgestaltet mit einer nach außen hin gerichteten schalenförmigen Gelenkpfanne 15. Ein Gelenkkopf-Teil, durchwegs als 17 bezeichnet, ist am Femur 19 befestigt und ausgestaltet mit einem -Gelenkkopf 21, rotierbar in der Gelenkpfanne 15 gehalten, wodurch das Rotationszentrum des resultierenden Gelenkes von dem Punkt, welcher vorher das Rotationszentrum des natürlichen Gelenkes darstellte, räumlich entfernt ist. Description of the Preferred Embodiment The joint prosthesis P, as shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 6, comprises a joint socket part ii, taken up by the acetabulum and designed with an outwardly directed cup-shaped joint socket 15. A joint head part, consistently referred to as 17, is attached to the femur 19 and designed with a joint head 21, rotatable in of the socket 15 held, creating the center of rotation of the resulting joint from the point which previously represented the center of rotation of the natural joint, is spatially distant.

In Bezug auf Fig. ist die Gelenk-Prothese P für die Verwendung in einem HUftgelenk, allgemein als 25 bezeichnet, bestimmt, welches einen Beckenknochen 27 umfaßt, der ein Acetabulum 29 bildet, welches den natürlichen temur-Kopf (nicht gezeigt) aufnimmt. In vielen Fällen, in denen das Hüftgelenk 25 eine Entartung erlitten hat, wird das Gelenk-längere Zeit nicht traini-ert, wobei es dem umgebenden Gewebe, den Bändern und den Muskeln ermöglicht wird, in einen versteiften.und angespannten Zustand zu gelangen. Das Umgebungsgewebe wird daher folglich, wenn das Gelenk 25 operiert und in Ordnung gebracht wird, fest bleiben und das Gehen einschränken. In vielen Fällen, besonders bei älteren Menschen, kann das umgebende Gewebe nicht mehr zur Ermöglichung der Bewegungsfreiheit locker und flexibel gemacht werden, wodurch sich in dem Gelenk eine bleibende Verhärtung für das restliche Leben des Patienten ausbildet. Um diese Schwierigkeit zu überwinden, ist es wünschenswert, das- Rotationszentrum des Gelenkes aus dem natürlichen Rotationszentrum 31 in ein Rotationszentrum 33 zu verlegen, das nach außen und unten hin von diesem angeordnet ist. Dies wird erreicht, indem man dafür sorgt, daß der künstlich Gelenkpfannen-Teil 11 so geformt ist, daß er in das Acetabulum 29 hineinpaßt und den künstlichen Gelenkkopf 21 aufnimmt. Als Vorbereitung für die Gelenk-Prothese P wird der Femur-Kopf (nicht gezeigt) vom Femur 19 entfernt, und dadurch eine flachgewinkelte Außenseite 27 gebildet,- die dem Acetabulum 29 gegenübersteht.With reference to FIG. 1, the joint prosthesis P is for use in a hip joint, commonly referred to as 25, determines which is a pelvic bone 27, which forms an acetabulum 29, which forms the natural temur head (not shown). In many cases where the hip joint 25 has suffered degeneration the joint is not trained for a long time, whereby it is exposed to the surrounding tissue, allowing the ligaments and muscles to become stiff and tense State to arrive. The surrounding tissue is therefore consequently when the joint 25 operated on and put in order, staying firm and restricting walking. In many cases, especially in the elderly, the surrounding tissue cannot be made more relaxed and flexible to allow freedom of movement, causing permanent hardening in the joint for the rest Trains the patient's life. To overcome this difficulty, it is desirable the center of rotation of the joint from the natural center of rotation 31 into one To relocate center of rotation 33, which is arranged outwards and downwards from this is. This is achieved by making sure that the artificial socket part 11 is shaped so that it fits into the acetabulum 29 and the artificial joint head 21 records. In preparation for the joint prosthesis P, the femoral head (not shown) removed from the femur 19, and thereby a flat angled outer side 27 is formed, which faces the acetabulum 29.

Der Gelenkkopf-Teil 17 umfaßt einen nach abwärts gerichteten Befestigungsdorn 41, der vom Mark-Kanal 43 des Femur 19 aufgenommen wird. Der Gelenkkopf-Teil 17 umfaßt ferner einen peripheren, lasttragenden Steg 47, welcher die Wand des Femur-Knochens 19 bedeckt und das Gewicht des Patienten drauf überträgt.The joint head part 17 comprises a downwardly directed fastening mandrel 41, which is received by the medullary canal 43 of the femur 19. The swivel head part 17 also includes a peripheral load bearing web 47 which supports the wall of the femoral bone 19 covers and transfers the patient's weight to it.

Die in Fig.7 und Fig.8 gezeigte Gelenk-Prothese P' ist für die Verwendung in einem Schultergelenk, allgemein mit 51 bezeichnet, bestimmt. Das Schultergelenk 51 umfaßt ein Clavicular 55, ein Acromion 57 und eine Scapula 59, welcher unter bildung einer natürlichen Gelenkpfanne zusammenwirken, Der Humerus-Kopf 65 wird normalerweise in der Gelenkpfanne 61 unter Ausbildung eines Kugelgelenkes festgehalten. Die Prothese P' ähnelt der Prothese P mit der Ausnahme, daß der Gelenkpfannen-Teil 69 so geformt ist, daß er in die~Gelenkpfanne 61 hineinpaßt und wiederum das resultierende Rotationszentrum des künstlichen Gelenkes vom Rotationszentrum des natürlichen Gelenkes räumlich entfernt ist, und man hierdurch das Gelenk in einer Zone anordnet, in welcher das umgebende Gewebe locker ist.The joint prosthesis P 'shown in Fig.7 and Fig.8 is for use in a shoulder joint, generally designated 51, determined. The shoulder joint 51 comprises a clavicular 55, an acromion 57 and a scapula 59, which under work together to form a natural joint socket, the humeral head 65 will normally held in the socket 61 with the formation of a ball joint. The prosthesis P 'is similar to the prosthesis P with the exception that the joint socket part 69 is shaped so that it fits into the joint socket 61 and again the resulting center of rotation of the artificial joint from the center of rotation of the natural joint is spatially distant, and the joint is thereby in a zone in which the surrounding tissue is loose.

Aus dem Vorhergehenden ist ersichtlich, daß die Gelenk-Prothese der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Hilfsmittel schafft, wodurch ein Patient, der sonst für alle Zukunft ein steifes Gelenk nicht mehr verwenden könnte, den Gebrauch dieses Gelenkes wiedererlangen und aufrechterhalten.kann. Wenn auch die erzielten Körperbewegungen etwas unnatürlich sein können, ist jedoch zumindest eine Bewegung ermöglicht und die folgerichtige Gelenkverbindung wird den Patienten in den Stand setzen, Tätigkeiten durchzuführen, die sonst nicht durchgeführt werden könnten.From the foregoing it can be seen that the joint prosthesis of the present invention provides an aid, whereby a patient who is otherwise for any future could no longer use a stiff joint, the use of this Recovering and maintaining the joint. Can. Even if the body movements achieved can be somewhat unnatural, but at least movement is enabled and the consistent articulation will enable the patient to perform activities to be carried out that otherwise could not be carried out.

Zahlreiche Modifikationen und Veränderungen können mit Bezug auf die vorhergehende, detaillierte Beschreibung vorgenommen werden, ohne daß diese vom Prinzip der Erfindung oder dem Geltungsbereich der folgenden Ansprüche abweichen.Numerous modifications and changes can be made with respect to the previous detailed description can be made without this from Principle of the invention or the scope of the following claims may vary.
