Abstract

A socket (1) which receives the ball end of a hip joint prosthesis, is attached to the pelvis by screws which pass through holes (11,12,13) in the socket wall. The socket has a hemispherical outer surface whilst the inner surface is in the form of a frustum of a cone. At least one of the holes (11,12,13) for the fixing screws is elongated. The longitudinal axis of each elongated hole is inclined at an angle of about 30 deg to the radial plane, of the hemispherical outer surface, which passes through the elongated hole. When two such elongated holes are provided these are arranged symmetrically about a common radial plane. USE/ADVANTAGE - Socket for hip joint prosthesis. The elongated fixing holes provide a limited degree of positional adjustment.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Hüftgelenkpfanne mit einer im wesentlichen kugeligen Außenfläche und mit Öffnungen zur Aufnahme von Knochenschrauben, von denen wenigstens eine als Langloch ausgebildet ist.The invention relates to an acetabular cup with a essentially spherical outer surface and with openings for Inclusion of bone screws, at least one of which is designed as an elongated hole.

Hüftgelenkpfannen dieser Art sind beispielsweise in der DE-OS 33 31 191 und in der DE-OS 39 01 885 beschrieben. Derartige Hüftgelenkpfannen sind nicht als Einschraubpfan­ nen ausgebildet, sondern sie werden in eine halbkugelför­ mige Ausnehmung im Hüftgelenkknochen eingedrückt und in dieser Position durch Knochenschrauben verankert, die durch Öffnungen in der Pfanne von innen her in den angren­ zenden Hüftknochen eingeschraubt werden.Acetabular cups of this type are, for example, in the DE-OS 33 31 191 and described in DE-OS 39 01 885. Such acetabular cups are not a screw-in socket nen trained, but they are in a hemisphere recess in the hip bone and pressed in this position anchored by bone screws that through openings in the pan from the inside in the angren screwed hip bones.

Dabei können die Öffnungen für den Durchtritt der Knochen­ schrauben einen kreisförmigen Querschnitt aufweisen, es sind auch Langlöcher bekannt, die sich parallel zu einem Längengrad der Hüftpfanne erstrecken, also parallel zur Schnittlinie zwischen der Außenfläche der Hüftpfanne und einer vertikalen, radialen Schnittebene. Dadurch sind in gewissem Umfange Positionskorrekturen beim Einsetzen und beim Einschrauben der Knochenschrauben möglich.The openings for the passage of the bones screws have a circular cross section, it oblong holes are also known which are parallel to one another  Longitude of the acetabulum extend, so parallel to Line of intersection between the outer surface of the acetabulum and a vertical, radial cutting plane. This means that To some extent position corrections when inserting and possible when screwing in the bone screws.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, Hüftgelenkpfannen der be­ kannten Art so weiterzubilden, daß die Positionskorrek­ turmöglichkeiten beim Einsetzen der Hüftpfanne verbessert und daß eine erhöhte Sicherheit der Verankerung durch die Knochenschrauben erreicht werden kann.It is an object of the invention to be acetabular cups known kind so that the position correction Improved door opening options and that increased security of anchorage through the Bone screws can be achieved.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Hüftgelenkpfanne der eingangs beschriebenen Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Längsrichtung des Langloches gegenüber der Schnittlinie einer senkrechten Radialebene und der Oberfläche (Längen­ grad) der Pfanne schräg angeordnet ist.This task is the beginning of an acetabular cup described type according to the invention solved in that the Longitudinal direction of the elongated hole opposite the cutting line a vertical radial plane and the surface (lengths degrees) the pan is arranged at an angle.

Diese schräge Anordnung der Langlöcher ermöglicht eine Korrektur der Position nicht nur parallel zu einem Längen­ grad, sondern auch quer dazu, so daß der Operateur auch nach dem Einschrauben der Knochenschraube in den Knochen die Position der Pfanne in beliebiger Weise korrigieren kann. Ein erheblicher Vorteil der Verwendung eines schräg angeordneten Langloches ist auch darin zu sehen, daß die Knochenschraube bei bereits eingesetzter Hüftpfanne in un­ terschiedliche Bereiche des benachbarten Knochens einge­ schraubt werden kann. Der Operateur hat damit die Möglich­ keit, die Knochenschraube in den Knochenbereich einzuset­ zen, in dem eine besonders gute Verankerung gewährleistet ist. Das umgebende Knochengewebe der Hüftpfanne ist näm­ lich nicht in allen Bereichen geeignet, eine Knochen­ schraube in voller Länge aufzunehmen oder sie wirklich fest zu verankern, eine solche Möglichkeit besteht nur in Teilbereichen des umgebenden Knochens. Damit wird dem Ope­ rateur eine größere Freiheit beim Einschrauben der Kno­ chenschrauben gewährleistet.This oblique arrangement of the elongated holes enables one Correction of the position not only parallel to a length degree, but also across it, so that the surgeon too after screwing the bone screw into the bone correct the position of the pan in any way can. A significant advantage of using an oblique arranged elongated hole can also be seen in that the Bone screw in an already inserted acetabulum different areas of the adjacent bone can be screwed. The surgeon has the possibility ability to insert the bone screw into the bone area zen, in which a particularly good anchorage is guaranteed is. The surrounding bone of the acetabulum is named not suitable in all areas, a bone  screw in full length or really firmly anchored, such a possibility exists only in Partial areas of the surrounding bone. With this the Ope rateur greater freedom when screwing in the kno screws guaranteed.

Beispielsweise kann zwischen der Längsrichtung des Langlo­ ches und dem Längengrad ein Winkel von etwa 30° einge­ schlossen sein.For example, between the longitudinal direction of the Langlo ches and the longitude an angle of about 30 ° be closed.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn zwei Langlöcher vorge­ sehen sind, die in Umfangsrichtung gegeneinander versetzt sind und spiegelsymmetrisch zu einem zwischen ihnen ange­ ordneten Längengrad angeordnet sind. Diese spiegelsymme­ trische Anordnung ermöglicht die Verwendung sowohl auf der linken als auch auf der rechten Körperseite, ohne daß da­ für unterschiedliche Pfannenmodelle notwendig wären.It is particularly advantageous if two elongated holes are provided are seen that offset in the circumferential direction against each other are and mirror-symmetrical to one between them ordered longitude are arranged. This mirror symmetry trical arrangement allows use on both left as well as on the right side of the body without there would be necessary for different pan models.

Vorzugsweise sind die beiden Langlöcher in Umfangsrichtung um maximal 60° gegeneinander versetzt, das heißt sie kon­ zentrieren sich auf einen relativ engen Bereich, da auch der die Pfanne umgebende Knochen nur in einem relativ en­ gen Winkelbereich eine optimale Verankerung der Knochen­ schrauben gewährleistet.The two elongated holes are preferably circumferential offset from each other by a maximum of 60 °, that means they con center on a relatively narrow area as well the bone surrounding the pan is only in a relatively large en optimal anchoring of the bones towards the angular range screws guaranteed.

Zwischen den beiden Langlöchern kann ein kreisrundes Loch zur Aufnahme einer weiteren Knochenschraube angeordnet sein, wobei vorzugsweise die Mittelpunkte der Langlöcher und des kreisrunden Lochs im wesentlichen auf derselben Höhe liegen. There can be a circular hole between the two oblong holes arranged to accommodate another bone screw be, preferably the centers of the elongated holes and the circular hole substantially on the same Height.  

Für dieses kreisrunde Loch wird normalerweise eine Veran­ kerungsschraube mit einem kugelkalottenförmigen Kopf ge­ wählt, so daß die Verankerungsschraube nicht nur in exakt radialer Richtung eingeschraubt werden kann, sondern auch abweichend davon, dies gibt dem Operateur die Möglichkeit, die optimale Einschraubrichtung zu wählen, wobei dieses Merkmal zusammen mit den schräg angeordneten Langlöchern eine besonders große Variabilität der Verankerung bietet. Die genannten Öffnungen befinden sich alle in einem rela­ tiv engen Winkelbereich, der im wesentlichen dem ebenfalls engen Winkelbereich des umgebenden Knochens entspricht, der für die Verankerung die besten Voraussetzungen bietet.A veran is usually used for this circular hole tapping screw with a spherical cap-shaped head chooses so that the anchoring screw is not only in exact radial direction can be screwed, but also deviating from this, this gives the surgeon the opportunity to choose the optimal screwing direction, this Characteristic together with the obliquely arranged oblong holes offers a particularly large variability of the anchoring. The openings mentioned are all in a rela tiv narrow angular range, which is essentially the same corresponds to the narrow angular range of the surrounding bone, that offers the best conditions for anchoring.

Die nachfolgende Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsfor­ men der Erfindung dient im Zusammenhang mit der Zeichnung der näheren Erläuterung. Es zeigen:The following description of preferred embodiments Men of the invention is used in connection with the drawing the detailed explanation. Show it:

Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Hüft­ gelenkpfanne von der Unterseite her und Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an acetabular cup from the bottom and

Fig. 2 eine Schnittansicht längs Linie 2-2 ei­ ner in den Hüftgelenkknochen eingesetz­ ten Hüftgelenkpfanne mit Kunststoffein­ satz. Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken along line 2-2 egg ner in the hip joint bone inserted th acetabular cup with plastic insert.

Die in der Zeichnung dargestellte Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 weist eine im wesentlichen halbkugelförmige Außenfläche 2 auf. Der Innenraum der Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 ist kegelstumpfartig ausgebildet, wobei sich an den kegelstumpfförmigen Teil 3 zur Unterseite ein kreiszylindrischer Bereich 4 an­ schließt. Im Übergang vom kegelstumpfförmigen Teil 3 in den kreiszylinderförmigen Bereich 4 ist eine umlaufende Hinterschneidung 5 angeordnet, die als Rastkante für einen in den Innenraum eingeschobenen Einsatz 6 dient, der so­ wohl den kegelstumpfförmigen Teil 3 als auch den sich dar­ an anschließenden kreiszylinderförmigen Bereich 4 voll ausfüllt und geringfügig nach unten aus der Hüftgelenk­ pfanne 1 hervorsteht.The acetabular cup 1 shown in the drawing has a substantially hemispherical outer surface 2 . The interior of the acetabular cup 1 is shaped like a truncated cone, with a circular cylindrical region 4 joining the truncated cone-shaped part 3 to the underside. In the transition from the frustoconical part 3 to the circular-cylindrical area 4 , a circumferential undercut 5 is arranged, which serves as a locking edge for an insert 6 inserted into the interior, which probably completely fills the frustoconical part 3 and the circular-cylindrical area 4 adjoining it and protrudes slightly downward from the hip joint socket 1 .

Dieser Einsatz 6, der beispielsweise aus Polyethylen be­ stehen kann, weist seinerseits eine im wesentlichen halb­ kugelförmige Lagerfläche 7 für den Gelenkkopf eines natür­ lichen oder künstlichen Femurs auf.This insert 6 , which may be made of polyethylene, for example, in turn has a substantially semi-spherical bearing surface 7 for the joint head of a natural or artificial femur.

Die Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 weist an ihrer höchsten Stelle eine Innengewindebohrung 8 auf, die vor dem Einschnappen des Einsatzes 6 in die Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 von der Innenseite her frei zugänglich ist, so daß darin zum Einsetzen ein Werkzeug eingeschraubt werden kann.The acetabular cup 1 has at its highest point an internally threaded bore 8 which is freely accessible from the inside before the insert 6 snaps into the acetabular cup 1 , so that a tool can be screwed therein for insertion.

Im Mantel 8 der Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 befinden sich drei Schraubenlöcher zur Aufnahme von Knochenschrauben 10, näm­ lich ein erstes Schraubenloch 11 mit kreisförmigem Quer­ schnitt und symmetrisch zur Position dieses Schraubenlo­ ches 11 zu beiden Seiten umfangsmäßig versetzt zwei Lang­ löcher 12 und 13. Beide Langlöcher sind dabei so angeord­ net, daß ihre Längsrichtungen mit einem Längengrad der Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 einen Winkel einschließen, beispiels­ weise einen Winkel von 30°. Unter "Längengrad" wird dabei die Schnittlinie der Außenfläche 2 mit einer senkrechten Radialebene der Hüftgelenkpfanne verstanden.In the jacket 8 of the acetabular cup 1 there are three screw holes for receiving bone screws 10 , namely a first screw hole 11 with a circular cross section and symmetrically offset to the position of this screw hole 11 circumferentially offset on both sides by two elongated holes 12 and 13 . Both slots are net angeord that their longitudinal directions include an angle with a degree of longitude of the acetabular cup 1 , example, an angle of 30 °. “Longitude” is understood to mean the line of intersection of the outer surface 2 with a vertical radial plane of the acetabular cup.

Beide Langlöcher 12 und 13 sind spiegelsymmetrisch zu ei­ nem Längengrad angeordnet, der durch das kreisförmige Schraubenloch hindurchgeht, das heißt auch ihre Neigung ist entgegengesetzt (Fig. 1).Both slots 12 and 13 are arranged mirror-symmetrically to a degree of longitude that passes through the circular screw hole, that is, their inclination is opposite ( Fig. 1).

Dabei befinden sich die drei Schraubenlöcher 11, 12 und 13 etwa auf halber Höhe der Hüftgelenkpfanne 1, und sie sind am Rand derartig von innen nach außen konvergierend ausge­ bildet, daß die Köpfe der Knochenschrauben 10 am vollstän­ digen Hindurchstecken durch die Löcher gehindert sind, aber soweit in die Löcher eindringen, daß sie nicht nach innen über die Innenwand der Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 hervorste­ hen. Die Köpfe werden also vollständig im Wandmaterial der Hüftgelenkpfanne 1 aufgenommen.The three screw holes 11 , 12 and 13 are located approximately halfway up the acetabular cup 1 , and they converge from the inside outwards in such a way that the heads of the bone screws 10 are prevented from being fully inserted through the holes, but penetrate so far into the holes that they do not protrude inwards over the inner wall of the acetabular cup 1 . The heads are thus completely absorbed in the wall material of the acetabular cup 1 .

Umfangsmäßig sind die Langlöcher 12 gegenüber dem kreis­ förmigen Schraubenloch 11 maximal um 30° versetzt, so daß alle drei Löcher 11, 12 und 13 innerhalb eines Winkelbe­ reiches von 60° angeordnet sind. Beim richtigen Einsetzen der Hüftgelenkpfanne ist es dadurch möglich, die Knochen­ schrauben in einem winkelmäßig eng begrenzten, optimalen Hüftgelenksknochenbereich einzuschrauben (Fig. 2).The circumferential slots 12 are offset from the circular screw hole 11 by a maximum of 30 °, so that all three holes 11 , 12 and 13 are arranged within a Winkelbe range of 60 °. When the acetabular cup is inserted correctly, it is possible to screw in the bones in an optimally narrow, optimally limited hip bone area ( Fig. 2).
