Abstract
Description
Der Gleitpartner ist ein Teil eines künstlichen Gelenkes, das in Verbindung mit einem zweiten bekannten Gleitpartner für die Herstellung von Gelenkendoprothesen in der Knochenersatzchirur gie eingesetzt wird. Die Endoprothese kann in verschiedenen Aus führungsformen, z. B. als Hüftgelenk-, Kniegelenk-, Ellenbogen gelenk-, Schultergelenk-, Handgelenk-, Fußgelenk- oder Band scheibenendoprothese eingesetzt werden. Zur Gewährleistung einer störungsfreien Langzeitfunktion von mindestens 20 Jahren müssen die Gelenke eine hohe Betriebs- und Verschleißfestigkeit besitzen und aus einem Material bestehen, das biokompatibel ist.The sliding partner is part of an artificial joint that in conjunction with a second known partner for the Manufacture of joint endoprostheses in bone replacement surgery gie is used. The endoprosthesis can be made in different ways management forms, e.g. B. as a hip, knee, elbow wrist, shoulder, wrist, ankle or ligament disc endoprosthesis are used. To ensure a trouble-free long-term function of at least 20 years the joints have high operational and wear resistance and are made of a material that is biocompatible.
Die Implantation künstlicher Gelenke hat sich in den letzten 15 Jahren in der Welt zu einer Standardoperation entwickelt. Trotz aller Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet des künstlichen Gelenkersatzes kommt es aber immer noch zum Prothesenversagen nach längerer Im plantationszeit, das zu einer Reoperationsrate von etwa 12% führt. Die Ursachen dafür sind vielgestaltig; Materialprobleme spielen dabei aber nachweislich eine wesentliche Rolle und erfordern somit die ständige Suche nach neuen und besseren Werk stoffen (P. Eyerer: "Kunststoffe in der Gelenkendoprothetik", Zeitschrift für Werkstofftechnik 17 (1986). S. 384-391, S. 422-428, S. 444-448).The implantation of artificial joints has changed in the last 15 Years ago developed into a standard operation in the world. In spite of all advances in the field of artificial joint replacement however, prosthesis failure still occurs after prolonged Im plantation time leading to a reoperation rate of around 12% leads. The causes for this are varied; Material problems but demonstrably play an important role in this thus require the constant search for new and better work substances (P. Eyerer: "Plastics in joint arthroplasty", Journal of materials technology 17 (1986). P. 384-391, p. 422-428, pp. 444-448).
Der Einsatz von Chirulen, einem ultrahochmolekularen Nieder druckpolyethylen, für die Pfanne des künstlichen Hüftgelenkes (PS D 21 29 832) zum Beispiel führt trotz eines niedrigen Rei bungskoeffizienten und des geringen Verschleißes zum Freisetzen von relativ großen Abriebpartikeln, die durch die zellulären Abwehrsysteme des Körpers nicht abgebaut oder abtransportiert werden können. Dadurch kommt es nach einer quantitativen Über schreitung der Fremdmaterialbelastung zur Dekompensation der Neokapsel mit Bildung eines knochenauflösenden Granulatgewebes und zur Lockerung der Gelenkpartner. Polyethylenpfannen, die als Schraubpfannen gefertigt werden, ergeben außerdem keine dauer feste Verbindung zwischen Knochen und Pfanne. Pfannen aus Poly ethylen erfordern wegen der zerspanenden Bearbeitung auch einen hohen Fertigungsaufwand und hohe Kosten. Durch den Einsatz einer Biokeramik für Pfannen (PS D 23 05 333) kann der Verschleiß des künstlichen Gelenkes reduziert werden. Infolge der großen Sprö digkeit der Keramik neigen diese Pfannen jedoch zum Bruch bei schlagartigen Belastungen. Wegen der geringen Dämpfung des Ma terials werden außerdem stoßartige Belastungen direkt auf den Knochen übertragen. Auch Keramikpfannen sind sehr teuer, da zu ihrer Herstellung aufwendige technologische Verfahren (Formen, Sintern, Schleifen, Polieren) notwendig sind.The use of chirules, an ultra high molecular low pressure polyethylene, for the socket of the artificial hip joint (PS D 21 29 832) for example leads despite a low Rei and the low wear to release of relatively large particles of abrasion caused by the cellular Defense systems of the body are not broken down or transported away can be. This leads to a quantitative over Exceeding the foreign material load for decompensation of the Neocapsule with the formation of a bone-dissolving granulate tissue and to loosen the joint partners. Polyethylene pans that as Screw pans are manufactured, also do not result in duration firm connection between bone and pan. Pans made of poly Because of the machining, ethylene also requires one high manufacturing costs and high costs. By using a Bioceramics for pans (PS D 23 05 333) can wear the artificial joint can be reduced. As a result of the large brittle However, these pans tend to break due to the ceramics sudden loads. Because of the low damping of the Ma terials are also subjected to shock loads directly on the Bones transferred. Ceramic pans are also very expensive because of that elaborate technological processes (forms, Sintering, grinding, polishing) are necessary.
In neuerer Zeit wird auch der Einsatz von Graphitfasern, die mit Kunststoff überzogen werden, für die Herstellung von Gleitpart nern erprobt (PS D 21 38 146). Über den praktischen Einsatz mit diesem neuen Material liegen jedoch noch keine Erfahrungen vor.In recent times, the use of graphite fibers with Plastic coated for the manufacture of sliding part tested (PS D 21 38 146). About practical use with however, there is no experience with this new material.
Ziel der Erfindung ist es, zur Herstellung von Gelenkendoprothe sen einen biokompatiblen Gleitpartner bereitzustellen, der in Verbindung mit Biokeramik als zweitem Gleitpartner hochfeste und verschleißarme Gelenke liefert, die eine mindestens 20jähri ge Einsatzzeit ohne Störungen garantieren und die Reoperations rate in der Orthopädie deutlich reduzieren.The aim of the invention is to produce joint endoprosthesis to provide a biocompatible sliding partner that Connection with bioceramics as a second high-strength sliding partner and provides low-wear joints that last at least 20 years Guaranteed operational time without disruptions and the reoperations significantly reduce the rate in orthopedics.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist anwendbar in künstlichen Gelen ken, die zum Ersatz für geschädigte Hüft-, Knie-, Ellenbogen-, Schulter-, Hand- und Fußgelenke und Bandscheiben eingesetzt werden.The solution according to the invention can be used in artificial gels to replace damaged hip, knee, elbow, Shoulder, wrist and ankle joints and intervertebral discs used will.
Die erzielten Vorteile beinhalten außerdem eine deutliche Sen kung des Fertigungsaufwandes und damit der Kosten, da die Pro thesen durch Vergießen herzustellen sind und da dieses Verfahren aufwendige Bearbeitungsschritte (Zerspanen, Schleifen, Polieren) einspart. The advantages achieved also include a clear sen Reduction of the manufacturing effort and thus the costs, since the Pro theses are to be produced by casting and since this process elaborate processing steps (machining, grinding, polishing) saves.
In der orthopädischen Chirurgie werden geschädigte Gelenke des Menschen durch Prothesen ersetzt, die die volle Funktion des ersetzten Gelenkes übernehmen müssen. Um eine mindestens 20jähri ge Einsatzdauer zu garantieren, sind für die Prothesen biokompa tible Materialien mit hoher Festigkeit einzusetzen. Die für das Gelenk gewählten Materialpaarungen müssen kleine Reibungskoeffi zienten besitzen und dürfen unter den konkreten Einsatzbedingun gen nur einen geringen Verschleiß erfahren.In orthopedic surgery, damaged joints of the People replaced by prostheses that have the full function of the replaced joint. To be at least 20 years old guaranteeing the duration of use are biocompa for the prostheses tible materials with high strength. The for that Articulated material pairings must have a small coefficient of friction clients own and are allowed under the specific conditions of use experienced only slight wear.
In letzter Zeit wird als Material für die Gelenkkugel in zunehmen dem Maße eine Aluminiumoxidkeramik eingesetzt. Als Gleitpartner dafür wird für die Pfanne ein hochmolekulares Polyäthylen oder ebenfalls eine Aluminiumoxidkeramik gewählt. Aus experimentellen Untersuchungen geht hervor, daß die Kugel auch nach 20jähriger Einsatzzeit keinen Verschleiß zeigt, während an den Polyäthylen pfannen etwa nach 5 Einsatzjahren feinschuppiges Verschleißma terial entsteht, das sich in der Gelenkprothese ansammelt und vom Körper abgebaut werden muß. Die Pfannen aus Keramik haben zwar bessere Verschleißeigenschaften, sie können aber durch die große Härte des Materials stoßartige Belastungen (zum Beispiel beim Fallen) nicht dämpfen und neigen dabei zum Bruch.Lately, as a material for the joint ball is increasing an aluminum oxide ceramic used. As a sliding partner for this, a high molecular weight polyethylene or also selected an aluminum oxide ceramic. From experimental Research shows that the bullet even after 20 years Use time shows no wear and tear while on the polyethylene pans after about 5 years of use material arises that accumulates in the joint prosthesis and from Body must be broken down. The ceramic pans have better wear properties, but the large Hardness of the material shock loads (for example, when Traps) do not dampen and tend to break.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, für die Biokeramik einen Gleitpartner bereitzustellen, der sich durch eine große Festigkeit auszeichnet und in Verbindung mit der Keramik einen kleinen Reibungsbeiwert und einen geringen Verschleiß hat. Außerdem sind durch das gewählte Verfahren zur Herstellung der Prothesen der Fertigungsaufwand und damit die Kosten deutlich zu reduzieren.The object of the invention is for bioceramics to provide a sliding partner that is characterized by a large Characterized strength and in connection with the ceramic one has a low coefficient of friction and low wear. In addition, by the method chosen for the production of Prostheses significantly increase the manufacturing effort and thus the costs to reduce.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Ziel dadurch erreicht, daß als Part ner für die keramische Gelenkkugel eine Pfanne aus einem Kompo sitwerkstoff eingesetzt wird. Die Matrix dieses Werkstoffes be steht aus einem biokompatiblen, vernetzten Kunststoff. Dafür werden vorzugsweise Polyurethane eingesetzt, doch können auch speziell gereinigte Epoxidharze (Epichlorhydrinfrei) und strahlenchemisch vernetzbare, ungesättigte Polyesterharze zur Anwendung kommen.According to the invention this goal is achieved in that as part a pan made of a compo for the ceramic joint ball Sit material is used. The matrix of this material be is made of a biocompatible, cross-linked plastic. Therefore Polyurethanes are preferably used, but can also specially cleaned epoxy resins (free of epichlorohydrin) and radiation-chemically cross-linkable, unsaturated polyester resins come into use.
Zur Herstellung der Polyurethane werden niedermolekulare Hydroxylverbindungen (z. B. Trimethylolpropan, Neopentylykol, Hexandiol-1.6 und Butandiol-1.4) und höhermolekulare Polyole (z. B. Monorizinoleate dieser Hydroxylverbindungen oder Poly tetrahydrofuran) eingesetzt.Low molecular weight is used to manufacture the polyurethanes Hydroxyl compounds (e.g. trimethylolpropane, neopentylycol, Hexanediol-1.6 and butanediol-1.4) and higher molecular weight polyols (e.g. monorizinoleates of these hydroxyl compounds or poly tetrahydrofuran) used.
