Definitions
- the present invention relates to an implantation system comprising a prosthesis shaft, in particular a femur shaft of a hip joint endoprosthesis, for insertion into a cavity of a bone, the prosthesis shaft having a proximal end and a distal end and defining a longitudinal axis of the prosthesis shaft, a shaft coupling element being formed at the proximal end for coupling with a first handling instrument for inserting the prosthesis socket into the cavity and/or for extracting it from the same.
- a prosthesis shaft in particular a femur shaft of a hip joint endoprosthesis, for insertion into a cavity of a bone
- the prosthesis shaft having a proximal end and a distal end and defining a longitudinal axis of the prosthesis shaft, a shaft coupling element being formed at the proximal end for coupling with a first handling instrument for inserting the prosthesis socket into the cavity and/or for extracting it from the same.
- Prosthesis sockets of the type described above are implanted, for example, as revision sockets for hip joint endoprostheses. This means in particular that a patient who has such a hip joint endoprosthesis implanted already had an artificial hip joint. After removing the previously implanted prosthesis stem, the cavity in the bone, in this case in a femoral bone, must be adapted for the prosthesis stem of the revision prosthesis.
- the prosthesis socket itself is then coupled to a first handling instrument in the form of a proximal insertion/extraction instrument.
- a proximal insertion/extraction instrument In particular, it is known to screw the percussion instrument, which has a short threaded section at its distal end, to the shaft coupling element formed at the proximal end of the prosthesis shaft, which can be designed in the form of an internally threaded section.
- an implantation system of the type described at the outset in that it comprises an adapter device with a first adapter device and a second adapter device, in that the first adapter device is designed for positive and/or non-positive releasable coupling with the shaft coupling element in a coupling position that the second adapter device is designed for detachable coupling to a second handling instrument and that the second adapter device is arranged or designed laterally offset relative to the first adapter device on the adapter device.
- the proposed adapter device makes it possible in particular to couple its first adapter device to the shaft coupling element in a simple manner.
- the adapter device can be made small and compact, so that it can be easily guided by a surgeon through the patient's tissue to the proximal end of the prosthesis socket and coupled to the socket coupling element of the same.
- the laterally offset arrangement of the second adapter device also has the particular advantage that a different handling instrument than hitherto can be used to drive in the prosthesis shaft or to extract it from the cavity of the bone.
- a different coupling mechanism can be used than the coupling mechanism between the described first handling instrument and the shaft coupling instrument.
- a screw connection can be dispensed with here, so that bringing the second handling instrument into engagement with the second adapter device of the adapter device is significantly simplified.
- a latching and/or snap connection device or a bayonet connection device can be used here.
- a screw or bayonet connection device can be provided for coupling the first adapter device to the shaft coupling instrument.
- the operator can either act directly on the adapter device or couple the adapter device and the prosthesis shaft to one another with a correspondingly suitable instrument that can be guided more easily through the tissue of the patient.
- the first adapter device defines a first adapter longitudinal axis
- the second adapter device defines a second adapter longitudinal axis and if the first adapter longitudinal axis and the second adapter longitudinal axis enclose an adapter angle.
- This configuration makes it possible in particular to arrange or design the second adapter device on the adapter device in such a way that the first and second adapter longitudinal axes do not run offset parallel to one another, but rather are inclined towards one another and enclose the adapter angle.
- the second handling instrument can be coupled to the second adapter device at an angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the prosthesis shaft in order to drive in the prosthesis shaft or to extract it from the cavity of the bone.
- the adapter angle has a value in a range from about 15° to about 60°. In particular, the value can be in a range from about 30° to about 45°.
- Adapter angles in the specified ranges enable the second handling instrument to have optimized access to the adapter device coupled to the prosthesis socket. It is advantageous if the shank coupling element comprises an internally threaded section and if the first adapter device comprises an externally threaded section which corresponds to the internally threaded section.
- This configuration makes it possible in particular to screw the adapter device to the shaft coupling element by means of the first adapter device.
- a screw connection is thus also produced here, as in the case of the known first handling instrument described at the outset.
- this is simpler since the adapter device can be made significantly shorter overall than the first handling instrument, so that it is easier to attach and screw to the prosthesis shaft and the risk of damaging the internally threaded section is reduced.
- the first adapter device comprises an adapter element receptacle and an adapter element and that in a separated position, in which the adapter device and the prosthesis shaft are disengaged, the adapter element can be moved relative to the adapter element receptacle.
- the adapter element can be displaceable and/or rotatable.
- the proposed development makes it possible in particular to attach the adapter device to the prosthesis shaft and then to establish a connection by displacing and/or rotating the adapter element relative to the adapter element receptacle.
- the adapter element can be screwed to the internally threaded section of the prosthesis shaft.
- the first adapter device can in particular be designed in such a way that the adapter element can be completely detached from the adapter element receptacle. This makes it possible, in particular, to use a component available in an operating room as the adapter element of the first adapter device, so that the number of parts required for the implantation system can be minimized.
- a sleeve-shaped separating element suitable for this purpose which is provided in order to disassemble a modular prosthesis socket into its components, can be inserted into the adapter element receptacle and used to couple the adapter device to the prosthesis socket be brought into engagement with the shaft coupling element, in particular by screwing.
- the adapter element has a distal end and a proximal end and defines an adapter element longitudinal axis and if the first adapter longitudinal axis and the adapter element longitudinal axis are aligned coaxially to one another in the coupling position.
- This configuration makes it possible in particular to couple the adapter device to the prosthesis socket in a simple and defined manner, for example by screwing it.
- the adapter device can be designed such that it can be attached to the proximal end of the prosthesis socket, whereby the adapter element can then also be guided in the adapter element receptacle in the direction of the first adapter longitudinal axis for connection to the socket coupling element.
- the implantation system can be formed in a simple manner if the adapter element is in the form of a screw element and if the external thread section corresponding to the internal thread section is formed on the adapter element, starting from its distal end or in the vicinity thereof.
- Such an adapter element can easily be screwed to an internally threaded section of the shank coupling element.
- only the adapter element is screwed to the prosthesis socket.
- the adapter device itself is not rotated or twisted relative to the prosthesis socket. As described, tilting of the threaded sections to be screwed together can thus be avoided in a simple manner.
- the distal end of the adapter element preferably protrudes on the distal side out of the adapter element receptacle.
- This configuration makes it possible in particular to screw the adapter element to the prosthesis socket in such a way that the adapter device is held in a clamped manner on the prosthesis socket in the coupling position. It is advantageous if a tool element pointing in the proximal direction is arranged or configured on the proximal end of the adapter element for non-rotatably engaging with a distal end of a screw-in tool.
- Such an adapter element can be manipulated in a simple and desired manner by a surgeon for coupling to the prosthesis shaft.
- a screw-in tool can be used here, which only has to displace a small amount of body tissue.
- it can have a significantly thinner shaft, since it does not have to transmit any impaction or extraction forces to the prosthesis shaft.
- the handling of the implantation system can be simplified in particular in that the tool element is designed in the form of a tool element receptacle that is open and points in the proximal direction.
- this can be designed in the form of an internal polygon or an internal polygon. In this way, the tool element receptacle can be engaged easily and securely with a correspondingly designed distal end of the screw-in tool.
- the proximal end of the adapter element protrudes from the adapter element receptacle on the proximal side. In particular, it can protrude beyond the proximal end of the adapter device.
- Such an adapter element can also be manipulated by hand by a surgeon, for example. In other words, he can screw the adapter element to the prosthesis shaft, for example, without a screw-in tool, just by grasping the proximal end of the adapter element with his hand.
- the adapter element receptacle comprises an opening formed on the adapter device. So the adapter element can enforce the adapter element recording and a stop on the Attack the adapter device, which includes a stop surface pointing in the distal direction. The adapter element can thus prevent a movement of the adapter device in the proximal direction when the adapter element is connected to the prosthesis shaft.
- the adapter device in such a way that the adapter element can be completely separated from the adapter device.
- the adapter element in order to further improve the handling of the implantation system, it is advantageous if the adapter element is held captive on the adapter device.
- the adapter element is still arranged or designed to be movable relative to the adapter device, but cannot be separated from the adapter device without damaging or destroying the adapter element and/or the adapter device.
- the adapter element can be held captive on the adapter device in a simple manner if it has an undercut and if a retaining projection of the adapter device engages in the undercut.
- the undercut is in the form of an annular groove open in the radial direction relative to the longitudinal axis of the adapter element and if the retaining projection is in the form of an annular flange pointing in the radial direction towards the longitudinal axis of the adapter element.
- the annular groove and the annular flange can in particular be dimensioned such that both rotation of the adapter element relative to the adapter device and movement of the adapter element relative to the adapter device parallel to the longitudinal axis of the adapter element is possible.

- FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of an implantation system that is provided overall with the reference number 30 .
- the implantation system 30 comprises an adapter device 32 as an essential component, which is designed for non-positive and/or positive locking detachable coupling to a prosthesis shaft 34.
- the exemplary embodiment of the prosthesis socket 34 shown schematically in FIG. 1 is shown with a socket extension 38 coupled to a distal end 36 thereof.
- FIG. 1 shows another handling instrument 40, which can be coupled with a rasp shaft in a non-positive and/or positive manner to form a rasp 44, with which a cavity in the bone into which the prosthesis shaft 34 is to be inserted can be prepared .
- the rasp shaft 42 and the handling instrument 40 are in non-positive and/or positive engagement.
- FIG. 1 shows a position in which the handling instrument 40 and the rasp shaft 42 are separated from one another.
- the prosthesis shaft 34 shown schematically in FIGS. 1 to 5 is shown in the form of a femur shaft 46 of a hip joint endoprosthesis 48 .
- the prosthesis socket 34 also includes a proximal end 50. It also defines a prosthesis socket longitudinal axis 52 which extends in a direction connecting the proximal end 50 and the distal end 36.
- a shaft coupling element 54 is formed on the prosthesis shaft 34 at the proximal end 50 . It comprises a short internally threaded section 56 which, starting from the proximal end 50, extends into a longitudinal opening 56 in the prosthesis shaft 34.
- the longitudinal opening 58 extends from its distal end 36 to its proximal end 50.
- the internal thread section 56 is designed to correspond to an external thread section of a handling instrument, not shown in the figures, for inserting the prosthesis socket 34 into the cavity and/or for extracting it from the same.
- a handling instrument can be coupled, namely screwed, to the prosthesis shaft 34 as an extension of the longitudinal axis 52 of the prosthesis shaft.
- such a handling instrument has the disadvantage that it is pushed to the side by the surrounding tissue when it is brought up to the internally threaded section 52, so that a surgeon here often has difficulty screwing the externally threaded portion of the handling instrument directly into the internally threaded portion 56 of the prosthesis stem 34 without damaging the threaded portions.
- the adapter device 32 comprises a first adapter device 60 and a second adapter device 62.
- the first adapter device 60 is designed for non-positive and/or positive locking detachable coupling to the shaft coupling element 54 in the coupling position shown in FIG.
- the second adapter device 62 is designed for detachable coupling to the handling instrument 40. Furthermore, the second adapter device 62 is arranged or designed laterally offset on the adapter device 32 in relation to the first adapter device 60.
- the first adapter device 60 defines a first adapter longitudinal axis 64.
- the second adapter device 64 defines a second adapter longitudinal axis 66.
- This configuration results in the above-described laterally offset arrangement of the second adapter device 62 in relation to the first adapter device 60, namely in particular in relation to its first adapter longitudinal axis 64.
- the second adapter device 62 is not coaxial with the first adapter longitudinal axis 64, but is laterally spaced from it . This enables direct access to the first adapter device coming from the proximal direction.
- the adapter angle 68 has a value in a range from approximately 15° to approximately 60°, specifically in a range from approximately 30° to approximately 45°. In the exemplary embodiment of the adapter device 32 illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 9, the adapter angle 68 is approximately 35°.
- the exemplary embodiment of the adapter device 32 illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 9 is designed in such a way that the first adapter device 60 includes an adapter element receptacle 70 and an adapter element 72 .
- the adapter element 72 is designed in the form of a screw element 74 with a head 76 and a screw shank 78 extending from it in the distal direction.
- the adapter element has a proximal end 82 and a distal end 84 and defines an adapter element longitudinal axis 86.
- the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 and the adapter element longitudinal axis 86 are aligned coaxially with one another, i.e. they coincide.
- the first adapter device 60 comprises the externally threaded section 80 which corresponds to the internally threaded section 56.
- the adapter element 72 can be moved relative to the adapter element receptacle 70, namely in the direction of the adapter element longitudinal axis 86 and can also be rotated about it.
- the adapter element receptacle 70 is designed in the form of an opening 88 on the adapter device. In the coupling position, the screw shank 78 passes through the opening 88 so that the distal end 84 of the adapter element 72 protrudes from the adapter element receptacle 70 on the distal side in the coupling position.
- a tool element 90 pointing in the proximal direction is arranged or designed for non-rotatable engagement with a distal end 92 of a screw-in tool 94.

- the tool element receptacle 96 is designed in the form of an internal polygon.
- the adapter element 72 is held captive on the adapter device 32 .
- the adapter element receptacle 70 includes a head receptacle section 100 which adjoins the opening 88 on the proximal side.
- the head receiving portion 100 has an engagement hole 102 sized so that the head 76 is movably held in the head receiving portion 100 .
- the head receiving portion 100 defines a receiving space 104 for the head 76.
- the engagement opening 102 is sized such that the head 76 cannot pass through the engagement opening 102.
- FIG. This is achieved in that the head receiving section 100 comprises an outer boundary wall 106 which extends over a circumferential angle 108 of more than 180° in relation to the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 .
- the circumferential angle 108 shown as an example in FIG. 9 is approximately 225° in the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 9 and is therefore more than 200°.
- the boundary wall 106 To insert the adapter element 72 with the head 76 into the adapter element receptacle 76, the boundary wall 106 must be expanded in such a way that an opening width 110, as shown schematically in Figure 7 and is smaller than an outer diameter 112 of the head 76, is dimensioned that it corresponds at least to the outer diameter 112. After the head 76 has been inserted through the widened engagement opening 102, the boundary wall 106 is then deformed back into the position shown in the figures, so that the head 76 and thus the adapter element 72 are movably held in the adapter element receptacle 70 so that they cannot be lost. So that the head 76 cannot pass through the opening 88, its outer diameter 112 is larger than an outer diameter 114 of the externally threaded section 80. In order to limit the movement of the adapter element 73 in the distal direction, there is a movement in the proximal direction on the head receiving section 100 in the transition area to the opening 88 pointing annular stop surface 116 is formed.
- the second adapter device 62 comprises an adapter end surface 118 pointing away from the adapter device 32 in the direction of the second adapter longitudinal axis 66 and a coupling projection 120 protruding from the adapter end surface 118. In a sectional plane perpendicular to the second adapter longitudinal axis 66, this has a cross-sectional shape that deviates from a circular shape.

- a coupling recess 126 is formed on the coupling projection 120 in a direction transversely with respect to the second adapter longitudinal axis 66 and points away from the coupling projection 120 in the direction of the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 .
- the coupling recess 126 is used to receive a locking member 128 that is movably arranged on the handling instrument 40 in order to couple the handling instrument 40 to the second adapter device 62 in a non-positive and positive manner in a simple and quick manner.
- a basic structure and a corresponding coupling mechanism of the handling instrument 40 is described in detail in DE 10 2008 064 518 A1, for example.
- a rasp adapter 130 is arranged or formed on the rasp shaft 42.
- the handling instrument 40 has a rasp adapter receptacle 132 designed to correspond to the rasp adapter 130 . So that the adapter device 32 or the rasp shaft 40 can be coupled with the handling instrument 40, the rasp adapter 130 is designed in such a way that its shape and size correspond to the second adapter device 62 of the adapter device 32 corresponds or essentially corresponds. Consequently, the coupling projection 120 and rasp adapter 130 are of identical design.
- the screw-in instrument 94 is designed to interact with the first adapter device 60 and defines a screw-in instrument longitudinal axis 134, also referred to as the screw-in tool longitudinal axis, specifically with a screw-in instrument shaft 136.
- an outer diameter 138 of the screw-in instrument shaft 136 is significantly smaller than the outer diameter 114 of the externally threaded section 80. As shown schematically in FIG 5, the outer diameter 138 is at most one-half the outer diameter 114. It is about one-third the same. In the case of the insertion instrument, not shown in the figures, whose distal end is provided with an externally threaded section corresponding to the internally threaded section 56, an external diameter of the instrument shaft is approximately in the order of magnitude of the external diameter 112 of the head 76. Such an instrument shaft is easily understandably more difficult to guide through body tissue than a slim, lightweight screw-in instrument shaft 136 of the screw-in instrument 94.
- a laterally protruding prosthesis neck 140 is formed at the proximal end 50 of the prosthesis socket 34 and defines a longitudinal axis 142 of the prosthesis neck.

- the anti-rotation device 150 comprises first and second anti-rotation elements 152 and 154.
- the first anti-rotation element 152 is arranged or formed on the prosthesis socket 34 .
- the second anti-rotation element 154 is arranged or formed on the adapter device 32 . In the coupling position, the first and second anti-rotation elements 152, 154 are engaged to prevent the adapter device 32 and the prosthesis socket 34 from rotating relative to one another about the longitudinal axis 52 of the prosthesis socket.
- the first anti-rotation element 152 is in the form of a recess 156
- the second anti-rotation element 154 is in the form of a projection 158 protruding in the radial direction relative to the first adapter longitudinal axis 64.
- the adapter device 32 is designed in one piece, namely monolithically. It has an overall length that essentially corresponds to a length of the prosthesis neck 140, as can be seen clearly in FIG.
- the adapter device 32 is first connected to the shaft coupling element 54 in such a way that the adapter device 32 is attached to the proximal end 50 of the prosthesis shaft 34 so that the first and second anti-rotation elements 152, 154 engage in one another. This is shown schematically in FIG.
- the distal end 92 of the screw-in instrument 94 can now be brought into engagement with the tool element 90, as is also shown schematically in FIG.
- the adapter element 72 is screwed into the prosthesis shaft 34 until the adapter device 32 is held in a clamped manner on the proximal end 50 of the prosthesis shaft 34 .

- a striking plate 162 is formed at a proximal end of the handling instrument 40 .
- the impact plate 162 By subjecting the impact plate 162 to blows directed in the proximal direction, for example with a hammer or the like, the prosthesis shaft 34 can now be extracted from the cavity of the patient's bone.
- the same procedure can be followed in the reverse manner.
- the prosthesis socket 34 can be coupled to the adapter device 32 and the handling instrument 40 outside the patient's body.
- FIGS. 1 to 9 another embodiment of an implantation system 30 is shown as an example. It differs from the exemplary embodiment of the implantation system 30 according to FIGS. 1 to 9 in the design of the adapter device 32.
- the same reference numerals are used in Figures 10 to 14 for components that are identical or comparable in their function as in the embodiment of Figures 1 to 9.
- the second adapter device 62 is configured identically to the second adapter device 62 in the exemplary embodiment in Figures 1 to 9, so that reference can be made to the above description in this regard, in particular with regard to the coupling to the handling instrument 40.
- the adapter element 72 is held captive on the adapter device 32 .
- This is realized by an undercut 164 on the adapter element 72.
- the undercut 164 is in the form of an annular groove 168 that is open in the radial direction relative to the longitudinal axis 86 of the adapter element.
- the retaining projection 166 is in the form of an annular flange 170 pointing in the radial direction towards the longitudinal axis 86 of the adapter element.
- the annular flange 170 is realized on the adapter device 32 by a one-stage reduction in an inner diameter 172 of the opening 88, which extends from the distal end 84 of the adapter device 32 in the proximal direction.
- the annular flange 170 has a width 174 parallel to the adapter element longitudinal axis 86, which is smaller than a width 176 of the annular groove 168. This makes it possible to move the adapter element 72 relative to the adapter device 32 parallel to the adapter element longitudinal axis 86, namely up to either one in the proximal direction pointing annular surface 178 delimiting the annular groove 168 abuts the annular flange 170 or an annular surface 180 pointing in the distal direction, which delimits the annular groove 168 on the proximal side.
- Figures 11 and 12 show the annular surface 180 resting against the annular flange 170, i.e. the most distal position of the adapter element 72 relative to the adapter device 32.
- the adapter element 72 is designed in several parts, namely in two parts, and comprises a first adapter element part 182 and a second adapter element part 184. These are designed to work together in such a way that the undercut 164, and therefore the annular groove 168, is delimited both by the first adapter element 182 and by the second adapter element 184.
- the adapter element parts 182 and 184 are permanently connected to one another. For example, they can be glued or welded together.
- the first adapter element part 182 essentially forms the entire adapter element 72. It comprises the annular surface 178 and a cylindrical boundary surface 186 which points away from the longitudinal axis 86 of the adapter element and which extends between the two annular surfaces 178 and 180.
- An outer diameter 198 of the first adapter element part 182 decreases in one step on the proximal side of the boundary surface 186 , so that a connecting section 188 forms a proximal end of the first adapter element part 182 .
- This connecting section 188 is provided with an external thread 190 .
- the second adapter element part 184 is essentially in the form of a nut 192 which comprises an internal thread 194 corresponding to the external thread 190 .
- An outer diameter 196 of the nut 192 is larger than the outer diameter 198 of the delimiting surface 186 so that the second adapter element part 184 forms the annular surface 180 .
- the first adapter element part 182 with the connecting section 188 is passed through the opening 88 in the proximal direction until the connecting section 188 protrudes beyond the annular flange 170 on the proximal side.
- the mother can then 192 can be screwed to the connecting section 188 until it rests against an annular surface 200 pointing in the proximal direction and connecting the connecting section 180 and the delimiting surface 166 .
- the connection between the two adapter element parts 182 and 184 can then be secured by gluing or welding.
- the handling of the implant system 30 with the exemplary embodiment of the adapter device 32 according to FIGS. 10 to 14 corresponds to the handling of the implant system 30 according to FIGS. 1 to 9, so that in this respect reference can be made in full to the above description.
- FIGS. 1 to 9 or 10 to 14 Another exemplary embodiment of an implantation system 30 is shown schematically by way of example in FIGS. It differs only in the design of the adapter device 32 from the exemplary embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 9 or 10 to 14, so that only the differences between the adapter device 32 and the adapter devices 32 of the exemplary embodiments described above are explained below.
- the same reference symbols are used to identify identical or functionally similar components.
- the adapter device 32 is equipped with a second adapter device 62, which is identical to the second adapter devices 62 of the exemplary embodiments described above, so that full reference can be made to these.
- the first adapter device 60 It in turn comprises an adapter element 72 and an adapter element receptacle 70.
- the adapter element receptacle 70 includes an opening 88 and a head receptacle section 100 adjoining this on the proximal side Opening 88 extends in the proximal direction, starting from a distal end 202 of the adapter device 32 .
- two cuboidal constriction bodies 204 are arranged diametrically opposite one another in relation to the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 .
- the head receiving section 100 defines a free inner diameter 206.
- a distance 208 between the two constriction bodies 204 is smaller than the inner diameter 206.
- the adapter element 72 is essentially in the form of an elongated cylinder which, starting from the proximal end 82 , defines an outer diameter 210 .
- the shank of the adapter element 72 widens in a single step in the distal direction to about a last quarter of its total length and is provided there with the externally threaded section 80 which corresponds to the internally threaded section 56 of the prosthesis shank 34 .
- a head-like annular flange 212 is formed at a distance from the external thread section 80 and has an outer diameter which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter 206. Furthermore, on the annular flange 212 there are two diametrically opposed, based on the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 Flattened areas 214 are formed, which have a distance 216 from one another, which is slightly smaller than the distance 208.
- the adapter member 72 may be coupled to the adapter device 32 by aligning the flats 214 toward the stenosis bodies 204 and then placing the adapter member 72 with its distal end 84 first distally in the proximal direction Adapter element recording 70 is inserted. In the orientation described, the annular flange 212 can be slid past the constriction bodies 204 .
- the adapter element 72 can be rotated about the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 .
- the adapter element 72 cannot be pulled out of the adapter element receptacle 70 in the proximal direction.
- the special design of the adapter element 72 and the adapter device 32 results in a coupling according to the key-keyhole principle by engaging the head-like or head-forming annular flange 212.
- the adapter element 72 and the adapter device 32 are thus configured in such a way that the annular flange 212 can only be inserted in a defined rotational position relative to the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 in a direction parallel to the first adapter longitudinal axis 64 into the adapter element receptacle 70, i.e. through the engagement opening 102, into the head receptacle section 100.
- the head receiving section 100 defines the engagement opening 102 between the two constriction bodies 204, which thus defines a non-round internal cross-section.
- An outer contour of the annular flange 212 is designed to correspond to the non-round inner cross section and is therefore also non-round. Non-circular here means deviating from a circular shape.
- a tool element 90 pointing in the proximal direction is formed on the adapter element 72 in a manner analogous to that already described above.
- FIGS. 23 to 26 Another exemplary embodiment of an implantation system is shown in FIGS. 23 to 26 by way of example. It differs from the exemplary embodiments of implantation systems 30 described above only in the design of the adapter device 32.
- the second adapter device 62 is configured identically to the exemplary embodiments described above.
- identical or functionally similar components are provided with the same reference numbers in order to improve clarity.
- the adapter element receptacle 70 is embodied as part of the first adapter device 60 in the form of an elongate, hollow-cylindrical opening 88, the inner diameter of which tapers at its distal end toward a distal end 202 of the adapter device 32, so that a pointing towards, inclined annular stop surface 270 is formed.
- a projection 158 pointing in the distal direction, protrudes from the distal end 202 and forms a second anti-rotation element 154 , an anti-rotation device 150 .
- a first anti-rotation element 152 is designed in the form of a depression 156 on the prosthesis socket 34 . In this way, the adapter device 32, as explained above in connection with the exemplary embodiment in FIGS.
- the adapter element 72 has a length such that the proximal end 82 of the adapter element 72 protrudes from the adapter element receptacle 70 on the proximal side, in particular beyond the proximal end 218 of the adapter device 32 when the adapter device 32 is coupled to the prosthesis shaft 34.
- the adapter element 72 is formed by a part of a severing instrument 222 comprised by the implantation system 30, namely an internal screw of the same.
- a component can be used which is required in any case for extracting a prosthesis shaft 34.
- the adapter element 72 and the adapter device 32 can be completely separated from one another. They are designed without a safety device, so they cannot be secured to one another in a captive manner.
- the adapter element 72 has an external polygon 224 which, in the coupling position, protrudes on the proximal side beyond the proximal end 218 of the adapter device 32 .
- This enables a surgeon to grasp the adapter element 72 in the area of the external polygon 224 and to screw the externally threaded section 80 formed in the area of a distal end 84 of the adapter element 72 to the internally threaded section 56 of the prosthesis shaft 34 without using a screw-in instrument 94 .
- an outer diameter of the adapter element 72 increases somewhat on the proximal side of the externally threaded section 80, so that an inclined annular surface 226 corresponding to the stop surface 220 is formed, which rests against the stop surface 222 in the coupling position, and so on to press the adapter device 32 against the prosthesis shaft 34 in a clamping manner.
- the coupling to the prosthesis shaft 34 is made possible by the adapter device 32, which in the above-described embodiments has a second adapter device 62, which is identical to the rasp adapter 130 on the rasp shaft 42 for coupling to the handling instrument 40 Intervention to insert a prosthetic socket 34 reduce the instruments required to a minimum. This significantly increases clarity during an operation.
