Definitions
- the invention relates to devices for removing an endoprosthesis or an implant, which is implanted in the body and consists of an artificial material.
- Prostheses or implants introduced into the human body are usually removed by mechanical methods after their end of life.
- This relates in particular to prostheses and implants associated with the tissue type bone.
- the poorly accessible gap-like boundary layer between the bone and the implanted material must be loosened by mechanical machining of the bone by chiselling, drilling, milling and sawing.
- Such procedures are massive interventions that destroy the living tissue unnecessarily and thus also lead to tissue loss.
- the ability to anchor a new endoprosthesis or a new implant is worsened by the fact that due to the set defects primary stability is reduced and inevitably a longer healing process is necessary.
- Another disadvantage of the mechanical treatments is the possible destruction of the surrounding tissue as well as the long operation time, which increases the morbidity of the operation, which is reflected directly in a high blood loss and an increased infection rate.
- the invention specified in the claims 1 and 20 is based on the object to remove introduced into the body endoprostheses or implants with minimal damage to the tissue, so that the patient is not damaged by a lengthy operation and the biological and mechanical conditions for a replant optimal ,
- the devices and methods for removing an endoprosthesis or an implant, which is or is implanted in the body and consists of an artificial material, are characterized in particular by minimal damage to biological tissue, so that a gentle removal is possible.
- Endoprostheses or implants are known at least partially made of a metal or other non-metallic material with electrical conductivity and are therefore electrical conductors.
- the endoprosthesis or the implant as a conductor and either at least one electrode electrically connected to a surface region of the endoprosthesis or the implant or at least one contacted to a region of the material surrounding the endoprosthesis or the implant are connected to an HF generator as AC source.
- an HF generator as AC source.
- the energy input leads to a protein denaturation in the tissue, in particular in the region of the tensile collagen fibers, so that the tissue surrounding the endoprosthesis or the implant is weakened and becomes brittle, for example, in the case of bones.
- a biomaterial such as, for example, recorded Knochenzeme ⁇ t, wherein 'the mechanical strength is reduced.
- the endoprosthesis or implant is coupled to a device simultaneously or after RF processing.
- HF surgery With the. Exploitation of high-frequency surgery, in the following called only HF surgery, the effort and the tissue damage in the release of endoprostheses or implants reduced as much as possible.
- the use of HF surgery is a gentle method, whereby the destruction of cells is largely avoided and thereby the healing process is positively influenced. The same applies to bleeding during the operation, which are largely prevented by the use of HF surgery.
- thermal effects are preferably used, which arise through energy coupling to the lowest possible tissue volume.
- the resulting heat output is, according to Joul's law, directly proportional to the resistivity and the square of the current density.
- a coagulation causes at a temperature between 50 0 C and 100 0 C, the transition from protein to denatured protein. This transition is associated with significant fluid loss. This causes a shrinkage of tissue cells and the narrowing of vessels until complete closure. At the same time, the heat conductivity of the tissue decreases and the electrical resistance increases, so that further propagation of the heat into the depth of the biological tissue is inhibited.
- the endoprosthesis, the implant or a region thereof itself is a conductor for this purpose.
- the RF generator as an AC source
- either the surface or a surface area between contacted electrodes of the endoprosthesis or the implant itself is heated.
- the alternating current flowing through the endoprosthesis, the implant, or through a portion of the endoprosthesis or implant does not cover the entire cross-section, so that high frequency alternating currents flow only in one surface layer (physically referred to as a salivary effect).
- the current density decreases greatly from the surface to the interior of the endoprosthesis or implant.
- the alternating magnetic flux inside the endoprosthesis or the implant generates additional voltages and currents according to the law of induction, which leads to a current distribution across the cross-section and retroactively to a redistribution of the magnetic flux, the current in the inner part
- the endoprosthesis or the implant is increasingly weakened with increasing frequency and concentrated on the surface.
- the conditional by the applied AC voltage also periodic magnetic field inside the prosthesis is in turn surrounded by electric field lines according to the law of induction. These electric field lines are directed in the interior of the prosthesis against the prevailing electric field and reinforce it on the surface. According to Ohm's law, the amount of current density at the surface of the prosthesis is greater than inside. It is thus heated only a surface area of the endoprosthesis or the implant. A complete warming of the endoprosthesis or the implant is largely advantageously avoided.
- the achievable heating of the surface or of a surface area of the endoprosthesis or of the implant increases with the frequency of the alternating current and with the conductivity of the endoprosthesis or of the implant and is further dependent on the shape of the cross section and on the influence of adjacent conductors.
- the joint between endoprosthesis or implant and this surrounding material is supplied via the connection of the endoprosthesis or the implant and the electrode with the HF generator, a power of preferably 100 to 300 W at a frequency in the megahertz range.
- the size of the power depends on the time of the feed, so that even larger powers are possible.

- an end region of the region is interconnected either directly or via a second electrode and, on the other hand, the electrode is connected as the first electrode to the HF generator.
- the AC current flows only in this area of the endoprosthesis or the implant, the tub also arises only in this area.
- the region represents a section of the endoprosthesis or of the implant, wherein heating can be effected in sections successively over the entire length of the endoprosthesis or of the implant.

- the plate-shaped electrode is connected flat to the patient. This is to 'reduce the current density as much as possible, in order to avoid damage to the healthy tissue according to the JouTschen law-: In the immediate vicinity of the electrode, the current density is highest and therefore the thermal effect on the strongest. This action decreases with the square of the distance to the electrode. In the case of interventions with low currents, the plate-shaped electrode can also be dispensed with, whereby the current circuit is closed by the impedance of the human body to earth.
- the at least one electrode is according to the embodiment of claim 9 for introduction. a channel of two spaced sub-electrodes connected to either the RF Generator or an RF generator are connected.
