Definitions
- Vertebral implant method of setting up such an implant and tool for implant placement
- the present invention relates to the field of surgical implants of the spine, for example for arthrodesis of the lumbar spine.
- the invention relates more particularly to the implants placed posteriorly.
- Arthrodesis is a surgical procedure that aims to stabilize a joint to make this joint less painful.
- arthrodesis is used to block two vertebrae relative to one another.
- the stabilization is generally obtained by fusing the two vertebrae, which requires their prior relative immobilization by means of vertebral implants.
- a vertebra includes, at the front, a vertebral body from the posterior part of which extend two pedicles each connected to the spinous process by a blade.
- the pedicles and the laminae delimit a canal in which the spinal cord or the nerve roots of the ponytail extend.
- From the pedicles extend articular facets intended to cooperate with the facets of the adjacent vertebrae to guide the vertebrae relative to each other during their relative movement.
- transfacretary screws engaged in the facets are used according to the MOUTH technique.
- the placement of these transfacretary screws may be of delicate positioning and the anchorage in the upper facet may be defective (insufficient bone).
- translaminofac- toral has been developed by AGERL to improve bone uptake. It has the advantage of improving the anchoring of the screws. However, the required aim is complex to implement.
- An object of the invention is to provide a means for facilitating the establishment of a vertebral implant comprising transfacretary screws.
- a vertebral implant comprising a first body and a second body articulated to each other, and two transfacretary connecting screws each having a threaded rod provided with a partially spherical head.
- Each body has a connecting portion to the other body and a base having a sole arranged to be oriented to a vertebrae portion released by laminectomy.
- the base is provided with a bore having a first end opening on the sole and a second end which opens on the opposite side and which is provided with a recess for receiving the screw head, and the base is also provided. a slot extending along the bore and opening laterally into the bore to allow lateral insertion of the screw into the bore.
- the transfacretary connecting screws are dimensioned to cross a portion of a first vertebra and lodge in the facet of a second vertebra, adjacent to the first, and to which we want to fix the first vertebra.
- the portion through which each transfacetar screw penetrates has been released by laminectomy, which facilitates the placement of the screws.
- the body of the implant is put in place after the introduction of the screws, which is more comfortable for the practitioner.
- the body of the implant ensures a connection of the screws between them and mechanically reinforce the vertebra while also providing protection of the nerve structures.
- the invention also relates to an instrument for screwing in a vertebra after laminectomy, comprising a forceps having a first jaw cooperating with a guide tube and a second jaw.
- the guide tube has a first open end arranged to bear on a vertebra portion left uncovered by the laminectomy and a second open end arranged to allow the introduction of a piercing member into the guide tube.
- the second jaw has an end extending substantially opposite the first end of the guide tube.
- This instrument allows drilling to be precise, reliable and repeatable.
- the fact that the second jaw has its free end in the vicinity of the axis of the guide tube and therefore the drill allows the practitioner to visualize the final position of the hole that will be made.
- the invention finally relates to a method of placing at least one implant on at least a first vertebra and a second vertebra of a patient, the second vertebra extending immediately under the first vertebra, the implant comprising transfacetary screws.
- the method comprises the steps of: - perform a laminectomy to discover two portions of the first vertebra,
- the axis of sight is preferably MARGERL type and is oriented to provide drilling of the two facing facets without interfering with the spinous process of the vertebra lying above.

- FIG. 17 is a perspective view of this instrument.
- Fig. 18 is an enlarged detail view of area XVIII of Fig. 17 with the instrument in its open state;
- FIG. 19 is a view similar to FIG. 18 of this instrument in its closed state
- FIGS. 20 to 29 are perspective views showing the establishment of the implant in the lumbar region of a spine
- FIG. 30 is a view similar to Figure 29 showing two implants in place in the lumbar region of a spine and coupled together.
- the vertebral implant according to the invention comprises a first body generally designated 100, a second body generally designated 200, and two screws generally designated 1.
- Each screw 1 comprises a threaded rod 2 provided with a head 3 having an outer surface 4 substantially spherical and provided with a recess 5, here hexagonal, to cooperate with a screwdriver.
- the screws 1 are dimensioned to make a transfacet link.
- the threaded rod comprises a single threaded section 6 situated near the free end of the threaded rod 2.
- the threaded section 6 has an external diameter greater than the diameter of the rest of the threaded rod 2 between the threaded section 6 and the head 2.
- the threaded rod 2 of the screw 1 comprises two spaced threaded sections: one, 7, located near the head 3 of the screw 1 and the other , 6, located near the free end of the threaded rod 2.
- the threaded sections 6, 7 have an outer diameter greater than the diameter of the non-threaded section extending between the threaded portion 7 and the head 3 and the diameter of the section unthreaded s r extending between the threaded portions 6, 7.
- the threaded portion 7 has a larger pitch than the pitch of the threaded portion 6.
- the threaded portion 7 has a larger diameter than the diameter of the threaded portion 6. This allows press the parts of bone in which the screw is engaged.
- the first body 100 comprises a portion 110 of the body 200 and a base 150 (see Figures 1 to 5 in particular).
- the base 150 comprises an insole 151 arranged to be oriented to a portion of vertebrae cleared by laminectomy.
- the base 150 is provided with a bore 152 for receiving the non-threaded portion of the rod 2 extending in the vicinity of the head 3 of the screw 1.
- the bore 152 has a first end opening on the sole 151 and a second end which opens out opposite on a surface 153 of the base 150.
- a flange 154 projects from the surface 153 around the outlet of the second end of the bore 152 to define a recess 155 which is in communication with the bore 152 and has a diameter sufficient to receive the head 3 of the screw 1.
- the recess 155 has a bottom 153 of substantially frustoconical shape intended to come into contact with the external surface 4 of the head 3 by producing a ball joint (alternatively, the bottom 156 may be in sphere portion).
- the flange 154 is externally provided with a thread 157 to cooperate by screwing with a plug 160 having a bottom surrounded by a tapped annular rim.
- the rim of the stopper 160 is externally provided with a cavity 161 identical to the impression 5 in order to cooperate with the same screwing tool.
- the bottom of the cap 160 is internally provided with a pad 162 which projects inwardly from the stopper 160 and has a concave spherical cap free surface of transverse dimension greater than the impression 5 in such a way that, when the cap 160 is screwed onto the flange 154, the pad 162 bears against the outer surface 4 of the head 3 and presses it against the frustoconical surface 156 which forms a shoulder of the base 150. The head 3 is so then clamped between the frustoconical surface 156 and the shoe 162.
- the base 150 is also provided with a slot 158 extending along the bore 152 and the recess 155 and opening laterally into the bore 152 and the recess 155 to allow lateral insertion of the non-threaded section of the rod 2 into the bore 152 and the head 3 into the recess 155.
- the connecting portion 110 extends projecting from the base 150 in a lateral direction of the base 150 and comprises an oblong hole 111 passing through for the passage of a bolt 300.
- the oblong hole 111 has a large axis parallel to the lateral direction.
- the connecting portion 110 has a concave rear surface 112 that is curved about the lateral direction and has hemispherical recesses 113 distributed along the major axis of the oblong hole 111.
- the second body 200 comprises a portion 210 of the body 100 and a base 250 (see Figures 6 and 7 in particular).
- the base 250 comprises a sole 251 arranged to be oriented towards a vertebra portion released by laminectomy.
- the base 250 is provided with a bore 252 for receiving the non-threaded portion of the rod 2 extending in the vicinity of the head 3 of the screw 1.
- the bore 252 has a first end opening on the sole 251 and a second end that opens out opposite on a surface 253 of the base 250.
- a flange 254, of tubular shape, projects from the surface 253 around the outlet of the second end of the bore 252 to define a recess 255 which is in communication with the bore 252 and has a diameter sufficient to receive the head 3 of the screw 1.
- the recess 255 has a bottom 256 of substantially frustoconical shape intended to come into contact with the outer surface 4 of the head 3 by producing a ball joint.
- the flange 254 is externally provided with a thread 257 to cooperate by screwing with a stopper 160 having a bottom surrounded by a tapped annular rim.
- the rim of the stopper 160 is externally provided with a cavity 161 identical to the impression 5 in order to cooperate with the same screwing tool.
- the bottom of the cap 160 is internally provided with a pad 162 which projects inwardly from the stopper 160 and has a concave spherical cap free surface of transverse dimension greater than the impression 5 in such a way that, when the cap 160 is screwed onto the flange 254, the shoe 162 bears against the outer surface 4 of the head 3 and presses the latter against the frustoconical surface 256 which forms a shoulder of the base 250. The head 3 is so then clamped between the frustoconical surface 256 and the shoe 162.
- the base 250 is also provided with a slot 258 extending along the bore 252 and the recess 255 and opening laterally into the bore 252 and the recess 255 to allow a lateral introduction of the non-threaded section of the rod 2 into the bore 252 and the head 3 in the recess 255.
- the connecting portion 210 extends projecting from the base 250 in a direction of lateral projection and comprises a cylindrical hole 211 passing through for the passage of the bolt 300.
- the cylindrical hole 211 has an end that opens into the center of a cap spherical 213 extending projecting from a front surface 212 of the connecting portion 210.
- the spherical cap 213 is received in one of the hemispherical recesses 113 so that the connecting portions 110, 210 of the bodies 100, 200 are arranged to form between them substantially a ball joint.
- the plurality of recesses hemispherical 113 provides an adjustment in position of the connecting portion 210 relative to the connecting portion 110.
- the bolt 300 conventionally comprises a screw, a nut and a bearing washer on the connecting portion 110.
- the washer has a cylindrical rear surface having a central axis substantially passing through the geometric center of the spherical cap 213.
- the instrument according to the invention is arranged for the installation of screws in a vertebra after a laminectomy.
- the first jaw 610 cooperates with a guide tube
- the guide tube 801 is provided with two axial notches 803 and has a notched front surface 804 for biting into the bone.
- the guide tube 800 is mounted in a housing 720, integral with the second lever 700, for sliding along the central axis of the guide tube 800 and the first jaw 600 is articulated to the guide tube 800 so that the approach of the levers 600, 700 causes the guide tube 800 to slide towards the second jaw 710.
- the guide tube 800 is externally provided with two symmetrical lugs 805 engaged in grooves 721 of the housing 720 to form a bayonet type connection.
- the first jaw 610 comprises two arms each provided with a notch pivotally receiving one of the lugs 805 so as to push the guide tube 800 when closing the clamp 500.
- the guide tube 800 has a diameter sufficient to receive a drill barrel 900 (see FIG. 23) removably and, with the drill barrel 900 removed, allow the passage of one of the screws 1 and a screwdriver 1000 (see FIG. 24) adapted to screw the screw 1.
- the second jaw 710 has one end that substantially coincides with the central axis of the guide tube 800.
- the second jaw 710 may be offset relative to this central axis, the important thing being that it is substantially opposite to the front surface 804 to allow pinching of the bone parts (the second jaw 710 can therefore also be slightly offset from the front surface 804).
- the levers 600, 700 are articulated to one another by interlocking complementary shaped elements, here lugs 730 integral with the second lever 700 and engaged in grooves 630 of the first lever 600.
- levers 600, 700 are easily separable from one another, just as the first lever 600 is separable from the guide tube 800 and the guide tube 800 is separable from the housing 720. This facilitates disassembly. and therefore the cleaning and sterilization of the instrument.
- FIG. 1 The lumbar area of the patient's spine before the procedure is shown in FIG.
- first vertebra VI and the upper part of the second vertebra V2 which extends immediately under the first vertebra VI, the lower facets Fl of the vertebra VI, the facets F2 superior vertebra V2 and spinous process El vertebral VI.
- the method begins by laminectomy to substantially symmetrically discover two PI portions of the first vertebra ( Figure 21).
- the instrument is then set up to define the line of sight along which will extend the first piercing and therefore, later, one of the screws 1 (here the left one, the spine considered in vertical position), which will also fix the body 100 of the implant.
- the end of the jaw 710 is positioned behind the facet F2 while the front surface 804 of the guide tube 800 bears against the portion left discovered on the left by the laminectomy.
- the guide tube 800 and the housing 720 pass under the spinous process of the vertebra located above the vertebra VI.
- the line of sight is translaminar (but the middle part of the blade has been removed) and MARGERL type.
- the drilling barrel 900 is placed in the guide tube 800 and a drill is introduced. Drilling is then performed along the line of sight through the lower facet Fl of the first vertebra VI to penetrate, the upper facet F2 of the second vertebra V2.
- the drilling barrel is removed and a screw 1 is inserted into the guide tube 800 with the end of the screwdriver 1000 to screw the screw 1 in the hole made in the facets Fl, F2.
- the screwdriver and instrument can then be removed.
- the screw is not screwed in such a way that the implant body can be engaged laterally on the portion of the screws (the head section) extending protruding from the vertebra portion left uncovered by the laminectomy ( Figure 25). After engagement of the implant body, the screwing of the screw 1 is completed ( Figure 26).
- the stopper 160 is then put in place (FIGS. 27 and 28).
- the instrument is positioned on the portion of vertebra VI left discovered on the right by laminectomy. The same operations as before are then performed to screw a screw 1 in the facets F1, F2 right.
- the first body 100 is thus mounted on the screw 1 on the left, the second body 200 on the screw 1 on the right.
- the connecting portion 210 is brought behind the connecting portion 110 and the hemispherical bulge 213 is engaged in one of the recesses 113, and the bolt 300 is placed without being squeezed.
- the plugs 160 and the bolt 300 are gradually tightened (FIG. 29).
- this involves laminating the second vertebra V2, and attaching an implant to the second vertebra V2 and the vertebra below as in the vertebrae VI and V2.
- Bolts 300 are then used to secure a bar 400 to both implants ( Figure 30) or more.
- the bar 400 has a plurality of holes for the passage of the bolts 300 so as to allow a adjustable positioning.
- the bar 400 will be modeled by the surgeon to comply with the lordosis of the spine and instrumented.
- the implant may have other forms than those described and shown.
- the caps can be fixed differently on the base.
- the rim 154 may be threaded to receive a threaded plug.
- the plugs may be fixed by means other than screwing and for example by a bayonet connection.
- the piercing member may be a drill for drilling before the introduction of each transfacetar screw or may be itself when the transfacretary screw is arranged to be self-drilling.
