Definitions

  • the invention relates to a monolateral fixative, in particular for orthopedic intervention.
  • a fixer can find applications in the very varied fields of the reconstruction of broken objects.
  • reference will be made to the specific field of application of orthopedics.
  • a certain number of types of monolateral fixators are known, which generally present a certain number of drawbacks, the most important of which are: heaviness, while it is obviously advisable to lighten the patient as much as possible,
  • the fracture is reduced and fixed on either side of the jaw fracture, by means of pins for example, said jaws being temporarily coupled by a jig. It is then necessary to remove the template and install the fixative.
  • This system does not solve the problem of the reduction itself, nor the way in which the bone fragments are maintained during the installation of the template or during the removal of the templates and the installation of the fixator.
  • fixator for reduced fractures since, on the one hand, the reduction is delicate, and, on the other hand, it is random to temporarily contain the fracture.
  • fixators are most often used, not for fresh fractures, but for lengthening, pseudo-arthritis or the like.
  • fixers are not designed to be combined with other elements, which can also be inconvenient in some cases.
  • the fixation of certain bones may require the use of rings encircling the limb to be repaired, as is the case, for example, with the fixers described in patent application FR N. 8602818 filed on February 28, 1986 .
  • the invention has set itself the aim of remedying these drawbacks in a simple, efficient and rational manner.
  • the problem which the invention proposes to solve is to be able to work on unreduced fractures and to adapt the whole of the fixator as a function of the fractures, whatever the geometric shapes, while being capable of dealing with all cases. of figures, in particular by equipping a part of the fixer with relay elements of design determined according to the interventions to be carried out.
  • the fixator comprises jaws capable of cooperating with fixing means cooperating with the elements to be fixed, at least one main body and intermediate elements shaped to fulfill a specific function, said jaws, said one or more body and said elements having arrangements to allow direct or via attached articulation members, their coupling at will to constitute a modular assembly at the level of its structure with capacity for angular orientation in different planes and / or linear adjustment.
  • the articulation members are constituted by complementary parts with the capacity of angular movement over at least 180 ° and of disassembly with respect to each other to separate the body and / or the jaw and / or the elements at will.
  • the complementary parts of the articulation members are of the male and female type connected by a removable common axis.
  • the body receives free sliding at least one piston mounted free in rotation and one end of which is integral with one of the parts of the articulation members.
  • fixer according to the invention taking into account the totally modular and removable nature of its constituent elements, makes it possible to cope with all the FR90 / 00251 m. 4 _.
  • An important problem which makes it possible to solve the characteristics of the invention, is to be able to adapt the fixator having regard to the constraints which appear post-operatively, but do not necessarily appear intra-operatively. It is difficult to predict the forces that will apply at the level of the fixator when the patient is lying down. It follows that after having correctly positioned the fixator, there may appear a certain offset under the effect of the loads caused in particular by the weight of the patient.
  • the fixator it is possible to equip the fixator with added elements capable of permanently adjusting said fixator.
  • the added elements are fixed to a part of the body and / or of the jaws with a fixed angular position or with angular orientation capacity by means of the organs of 'coupling.
  • the elements consist of turnbuckles of variable length.
  • the elements consist of a bar or rod on which moves in successive increments, a cursor constituted by a sleeve sliding on the bar or rod and provided with locking means in position, a threaded ring cooperating with a threaded part of the sleeve, and being mounted free in rotation on a second sleeve also sliding on the bar or rod on which it can be locked in position by means, the movement of the assembly being made by locking in position of one of the sleeves, screwing or unscrewing between ring and threaded part, blocking the other sleeve, unlocking the first, and and so on.
  • the turnbuckles comprise two parts mounted on a housing and for at least one, by means of a slider sliding transversely with respect to said parts along a worm screw rotating in a common housing, controlled in rotation by the exterior by rotation of the ends of the screws, thus ensuring a translational offset between said parts.
  • Each slider has several fixing points for the turnbuckle parts.
  • the housing is separated into two parts articulated on a common axis substantially parallel to the parts of the turnbuckle.
  • Another problem which the invention proposes to solve lies in the jaws as such, avoiding inducing a line of weakness on the bone resulting from their method of fixation.
  • the jaws have a series of aligned positions allowing the passage of screws or pins.
  • the disadvantage of such a system is that, in certain cases, the drilling of aligned holes and even with a coplanar axis, in particular in a long bone, can initiate cracking between the different holes which can lead to another fracture. It is therefore essential to be able to have jaws that do not have aligned holes.
  • Another problem which the invention proposes to solve and which is not resolved according to the state of the art, is to give the fixer a so-called property, active dynamics.
  • it is possible to incorporate at least one elastic element allowing not a pure droop but a droop with a stress which can be dosed and used at the chosen time.
  • Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to correctly place the jaws on an unreduced fracture, namely a jaw above the fracture and a jaw below.
  • the problem is to have a perfect alignment of the pins perpendicularly and horizontally on each of the parts above and below the fracture.
