Description

Gelenkendoprothesen ersetzen durch degenerative entzündliche, traumatische oder tumoröse Ver­ änderungen geschädigte Gelenke und ermöglichen es dem Patienten so, ein weitgehend "normales" Leben zu führen.
Es ist bekannt, daß das ideale Gelenkimplantat eine pysiologische, proximal-metaphysäre Lastübertragung in das tragende Knochenlager ermöglichen sollte. Für eine ausreichende Fixierung, insbesondere zur Primär­ verankerung von zementfreien Implantaten, besitzen die üblichen Implantate vor allem im Hüftbereich einen weit in den Markraum des tragenden Knochens hinein­ reichenden Prothesenstiel.
Es ist weiterhin bekannt, daß durch die herkömmlichen langstieligen Prothesen die geforderte physiologische Lasteinleitung derart geändert wird, daß anstelle der proximal-metaphysären die distal-diaphysäre Kraftein­ leitung begünstigt wird (Menge, M., 1994, Die metaphysäre Prothesenverankerung - ein neues Prinzip für die Femurprothese). Durch diese Kraftumleitung in den distalen Bereich des tragenden Knochens (Femur) entsteht eine mechanische Schonung des Knochens im proximalen Bereich, das "Stress-Shielding". Die Folge ist die oft zu beobachtende Resorption des Knochens im proximalen Bereich, vor allem des Kalkar (Kalkaratrophie). Zusätzlich kommt es distal im Bereich der Stielspitze zu einer verstärkten Krafteinleitung mit resultierender Kortikalishypertrophie (Cohen, B., Rushton, N., 1995, Bone Remodelling in the Proximal Femur After Charnley THA,), (Kuiper, J. H., 1993, Three-Dimensional Optimization of Hip Prosthetic Design). Diese Mechanismen führen zur Lockerung der Prothese im Knochenlager und somit zum Versagen des Implantates.
Es ist weiterhin bekannt, daß der Knochen­ substanzverlust im Falle einer Wechseloperation die Fixation der Wechselprothese erheblich erschwert und häufig die Verwendung von teuren Sonderimplantaten erfordert.
Es ist weiterhin bekannt, daß sich als bioresorbierbare Materialien bekannte Co-Polymere verwenden lassen, die z. B. aus D,L-Lactid oder L-Lactid oder aus Glycolid oder aus einer Mischung dieser Stoffe hergestellt werden. Außerdem sind eigenverstärkte Materialien entwickelt worden, die bezüglich ihrer mechanischen Eigenschaften den bisherigen weit überlegen sind. Diese kommen bereits bei der Herstellung von Knochenschrauben, -stiften und -platten zur Anwendung. Vergleiche z. B. Törmälä, P; 1993, Ultra-high Strength, Self-Reinforced Absorbable Polymeric Composites for Applications in Different Disciplines of Surgery, Clin. Mat. pp. 35-40.
Es ist weiterhin bekannt, daß die Resorption zu großer Mengen bioresorbierbaren Materials im Körper zu unerwünschten Fremdkörperreaktionen führen kann.
Der im Patentanspruch angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, die Vielzahl der operationstechnisch komplizierten, teuren und für den Patienten belastenden lockerungsbedingten Pro­ thesenwechseloperationen zu minimieren.
Dieses Problem wird durch die im Patentanspruch aufgeführten Merkmale gelöst.
Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen darin daß dieser Prothesentyp unmittelbar postoperativ durch seinen langen Stiel eine ausreichende, den heutigen Prothesenvarianten entsprechende Primärstabilität ge­ währleistet. Durch den in den folgenden Wochen nach der Operation ablaufenden Abbau des bioresobierbaren Zwischenstückes wird eine stufenlose mechanische Entkoppelung des distalen Stielteiles vom proximalen Stielteil erreicht, die eine mech. Entlastung des distalen Stielteiles zur Folge hat. Gleichzeitig kommt es zum knöchernen Einwachsen des proximalen Stielteiles. Dieser Prozeß führt dann zu einer ausschließlich proximalen Verankerung und somit zu einer physio­ logischen Lasteinleitung in das Knochenlager. Die aseptische Implantatlockerung, die durch mechanisch bedingte Knochenresorptionsvorgänge ausgelöst wird kann somit vermieden werden. So wird eine deutlich erhöhte Standzeit der Prothese möglich.
Im Falle einer aus anderen Gründen trotzdem notwendigen Wechseloperation wird durch den Erhalt der proximalen Knochensubstanz eine solide Ausgangsposition für die Fixation der Wechselprothese geschaffen.
Die hier beschriebenen Funktionen der neuen Hüft­ endoprothese werden mit einem kleinen Materialvolumen des Zwischenstückes erreicht. Dies ist deshalb von entscheidender Bedeutung, da größere Mengen bioresorbierbaren Materials im Körper zu unerwünschten Gewebereaktionen führen können.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.
Es zeigt
Fig. 1 einen Schnitt durch die erfindungsgemäße Endoprothese;
Die Prothese besteht aus einem oberen Teil (1) und einem unteren Teil (2). Zwischen diesem oberen Teil (1) und dem unteren Teil (2) stellt ausschließlich ein Zwischenstück (3), das aus bioresobierbarem Material hergestellt ist, die mechanische Verbindung dar.

Claims (1)
