Abstract

The instrument to measure the tension of side cartilages in a knee joint, when the bones have been removed for implanting a prosthesis, has two pads (A,B) which are inserted into the gap in the joint. The pads are attached by guides (E,F) to a scissors linkage with linkage points (C,D), to ensure that they are spread apart in parallel. The instrument can hold a measurement unit which registers the spreading force mechanically or electronically.

Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Implantation der Kniegelenksinnenprothese erfolgt durch Resektion der beiden Gelenkpartnerenden und anschließender Einbringung der Knieprothese unter Berücksichtigung der physiologischen Beinlänge und Beinachse.The The knee joint prosthesis is implanted by resection of the two joint partner ends and subsequent insertion of the knee prosthesis considering the physiological leg length and leg axis.

Problemproblem

Bei der Implantation der Kniegelenksinnenprothese ist es unabdingbar die Balance zwischen innerem und äußerem Seitenband wieder herzustellen. Häufig gehen schwere Arthrosen des Kniegelenks mit einem Verlust der physiologischen Beinachse im Sinne eines vermehrten O- Beines bzw. vermehrten X – Beines einher.at implantation of the knee joint prosthesis is essential to restore the balance between the inner and outer sideband. Go frequently severe osteoarthritis of the knee with a loss of physiological Leg axis in the sense of an increased bow leg or increased X leg associated.

Infolge dessen kommt es zu einer Verkürzung des Innenbandes und Elongation des Außenbandes (O – Bein) bzw. zu einer Verkürzung des Außenbandes und Elongation des Innenbandes (X – Bein).As a result this leads to a shortening of the inner ligament and elongation of the outer ligament (bow leg) or a shortening of the outer ligament and elongation of the inner ligament (X - leg).

Vor der Implantation der Kniegelenksinnenprothese ist es von entscheidender Bedeutung das ursprüngliche Bandgleichgewicht zwischen dem inneren und dem äußeren Seitenband bei physiologischer Beinachse wieder herzustellen.In front the implantation of the prosthetic knee joint is crucial Meaning the original Band balance between the inner and the outer sideband in physiological To restore the leg axis.

Würde dies nicht berücksichtigt , bestünde die Gefahr des vorzeitigen Verschleisses der Gleitpartner der Knieprothese.Would not considered , that would exist Risk of premature wear of the sliding partner of the knee prosthesis.

Erfindunginvention

Nachdem die Knochenschnitte unter Berücksichtigung der Rekonstruktion der physiologischen Beinachse erstellt worden sind, wird das Bandspannungsinstrument in den Gelenkspalt eingeführt und über einen Scherenmechanismus parallel aufgespreizt.After this taking into account the bone cuts of the reconstruction of the physiological leg axis are, the ligament tensioning instrument is inserted into the joint space and over a Scissor mechanism spread parallel.

Die Konstruktion des Instruments – mindestens eine Spreizbacke ist frei seitlich schwenkbar und dies zumindest über einen definierten Schwenkbereich- erlaubt es, daß gleiche Spannungen im inneren und äußeren Seitenband appliziert werden.The Construction of the instrument - at least an expanding jaw can be freely swiveled sideways and at least over one Defined swivel range - allows equal tensions inside and outer sideband be applied.

Die dabei auf die Seitenbänder einwirkende Kraft wird vom Chirurgen über die Meßanzeige kontrolliert und bestimmt.The doing so on the sidebands The surgeon checks and determines the force acting on the measuring display.

Kommt es unter der Aufspreizung der Zange zu keiner spontanen physiologischen Ausrichtung der Beinachse , so muß in der üblichen chirurgischen Technik das verkürzte Band gelöst wird. Unter Applikation der gleichgroßen Kraft medial wie lateral erfolgt die spontane Ausrichtung der Beinachse in physiologischer Weise.comes it under the spread of the forceps to no spontaneous physiological Alignment of the leg axis must be done in the usual surgical technique that shortened Tape loosened becomes. Applying the same force medially and laterally the spontaneous alignment of the leg axis is physiological Wise.

Die Größe der Aufspreizung der Zange kann über einen Ratschenmechanismus an beliebiger Stelle definiert arretiert werdenThe Size of the spread the pliers can over a ratchet mechanism locked in any place become

Die Ermittlung der aufgebrachten Spreizkraft erfolgt mittels einer auf eine Spreizbacke aufgebrachte DMS mit externem Anzeigegerät.The The spreading force applied is determined by means of a a spreading jaw attached strain gauge with external display device.

Eine mechanische Messung der Spreizkraft erfolgt über einen Federwaagenmechanismus, vorzugsweise an den Griff enden angebracht.A mechanical measurement of the spreading force takes place via a spring balance mechanism, preferably attached to the handle ends.

DARSTELLUNG DER ERFINDUNGPRESENTATION THE INVENTION

Die Ausgestaltung der Erfindung nach den Ansprüchen 2 bis 5 wird nachfolgend dargestellt.The Embodiment of the invention according to claims 2 to 5 is as follows shown.

1 Darstellung der Backen mit der Schere zum parallelen Spreizen 1 Representation of the jaws with scissors for parallel spreading

2 Darstellung der schwenkbaren Backen 2 Representation of the swiveling jaws

Zu 1 : Die scherenartig ausgebildete Führung der beiden Backen (A, B) bewirkt bei entsprechender Anlenkung an den Punkten (C, D) ein paralleles Auseinanderweichen der Backen.To 1 : The scissors-like guidance of the two jaws (A, B) causes the jaws to diverge in parallel if they are articulated at points (C, D).

Die Anlenkung an den Punkten (C, D) kann beispielsweise über eine nach bekannter Art ausgebildete Zange erfolgen, deren Backen auseinanderweichen , wenn man die Griffe schließt.The Articulation at points (C, D) can, for example, via a made in a known manner pliers whose jaws diverge when you close the handles.

Zu 2: Die Backen (A, B) sind in ihrer Führung (E, F) gelenkig gelagert, so daß bei einer durch differierende Bandspannung erzeugten Schrägstellung der Gelenkflächen zueinander, die Backen dieser Stellung folgen können und somit die Krafteinleitung durch die Zange konstant über der Gelenkbreite erfolgen kann.To 2 : The jaws (A, B) are articulated in their guide (E, F), so that when the joint surfaces are inclined to one another due to differing band tension, the jaws can follow this position and thus the force applied by the pliers is constant over the joint width can be done.
