Abstract

An osteosynthesis implant assembly, particularly for the end of the femur, comprises a modifiable, interchangeable combination of: a series of support plates (1) shaped for fixing to the shaft of the femur; a series of coupling sleeves (2) of different lengths and angular position, capable of being secured to the top end of the plate; a series of cephalic screws (3) freely engaging in the sleeves (2) from the top end of the plate.

Description

Ensemble d'implants d'ostéosvnthèse de l'extrémité du fémur notamment et son dispositif de pose. Set of osteosynthesis implants of the end of the femur in particular and its delivery device.

L'invention concerne plus particulièrement, la réduction et la fixation des fractures de l'extrémité supérieure du fémur, sans pour cela exclure d'autres extrémités osseuses. The invention relates more particularly to the reduction and fixation of fractures of the upper end of the femur, without excluding other bone ends.

Généralement, on distingue quatre grands types de fractures, à savoir:
- les fractures cervicales vraies entre la tête et le col du fémur,
- les fractures basi-cervicales entre le col du fémur et le massif trochantérien,
- les fractures cervico-trochantériennes dans le massif trochantérien,
- les fractures sous-trochantériennes en dessous du massif troch antérien.
Generally, there are four main types of fractures, namely:
- true cervical fractures between the head and the neck of the femur,
- basi-cervical fractures between the neck of the femur and the trochanteric massif,
- cervico-trochanteric fractures in the trochanteric massif,
- subtrochanteric fractures below the anterior troch massif.

En fonction du type de fractures5 différentes solutions d'ostéosynthèses peuvent être envisagées. On peut citer par exemple, des broches, des clous et des plaques agencées pour recevoir une vis céphalique. L'invention concerne plus particulièrement, les plaques d'appui recevant une vis céphalique. Depending on the type of fracture5 different osteosynthesis solutions can be considered. Mention may be made, for example, of pins, nails and plates arranged to receive a cephalic screw. The invention relates more particularly, the support plates receiving a cephalic screw.

Généralement, ces plaques présentent une partie d'appui conformée pour être fixée au niveau de la diaphyse de l'os. L'extrémité supérieure de la partie d'appui présente un manchon creux débouchant, connu également sous le nom de canon. Ce canon est orienté angulairement par rapport à la partie d'appui et reçoit la vis céphalique. Le canon et la partie d'appui constituent un élément monobloc. Generally, these plates have a shaped support portion to be fixed at the level of the shaft of the bone. The upper end of the support part has a hollow hollow sleeve, also known as a barrel. This barrel is oriented angularly with respect to the support part and receives the cephalic screw. The barrel and the support part constitute a monobloc element.

Pour tenir compte des différentes morphologies et des différents types de fractures, il est nécessaire de prévoir différentes longueurs de vis et différents ensembles plaque - canon, avec différentes longueurs du canon et différentes orientations angulaires de ce canon par rapport à la plaque. II est donc nécessaire d'avoir un stock important. To take into account the different morphologies and the different types of fractures, it is necessary to provide different screw lengths and different plate - barrel assemblies, with different barrel lengths and different angular orientations of this barrel relative to the plate. It is therefore necessary to have a large stock.

Un autre problème apparait également en ce qui concerne, la pose de ces plaques. En effet, la vis céphalique doit être placée en plein milieu du col, selon son grand axe, qui, en général, fait un angle de 1300 avec la diaphyse. C'est donc la vis céphalique qui donne la place au canon et par conséquent à la plaque d'appui. Another problem also arises with regard to the installation of these plates. Indeed, the cephalic screw must be placed in the middle of the neck, along its long axis, which, in general, makes an angle of 1300 with the diaphysis. It is therefore the cephalic screw which gives place to the barrel and consequently to the support plate.

Pour déterminer le grand axe, on utilise une broche qui fait office de guide et qui est orientée par un viseur, tenu le plus souvent manuellement. Un amplificateur de brillance est utilisé pour tenter de déterminer cet axe. Le viseur permet d'enfoncer la broche selon l'angle qu'il donne. To determine the major axis, a spindle is used which acts as a guide and which is oriented by a viewfinder, most often held manually. An image intensifier is used to try to determine this axis. The viewfinder allows you to push in the spindle at the angle it gives.

Le fait de tenir le viseur à la main n'est pas très précis. Si la visée est incorrectement effectuée, c'est-à-dire lorsque l'angle de la visée ne correspond pas exactement à l'angle formé entre le canon et la plaque d'appui, cette dernière ne peut s'appliquer contre la diaphyse fémorale. Si l'on veut malgré tout appliquer la plaque sur la diaphyse, le canon est soumis à une force de réaction qui agit de manière néfaste sur le foyer de fracture. Holding the viewfinder in your hand is not very precise. If the aiming is carried out incorrectly, i.e. when the aiming angle does not exactly correspond to the angle formed between the barrel and the support plate, the latter cannot be applied against the diaphysis femoral. If we still want to apply the plate on the diaphysis, the barrel is subjected to a reaction force which acts adversely on the fracture site.

II apparait donc que ce type de plaques nécessite un stock important, compte-tenu des différentes angulations nécessaires et ne peut corriger une mauvaise pose de la vis céphalique. It therefore appears that this type of plate requires a large stock, taking into account the different angulations required and cannot correct a poor installation of the cephalic screw.

L'invention s'est fixée pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients, de manière simple, sûre efficace et rationnelle. The object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks in a simple, safe, efficient and rational manner.

Le problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de concevoir un ensemble d'implants particulièrement adapté pour l'ostéosynthèse de l'os du fémur permettant de diminuer de manière importante le stock, tout en respectant de manière précise, le grand axe du col. The problem that the invention proposes to solve is to design a set of implants particularly suitable for osteosynthesis of the femur bone making it possible to significantly reduce the stock, while respecting precisely, the major axis of the collar.

Un tel problème est résolu en ce que l'ensemble comprend en combinaison, d'une manière modulable et interchangeable - une série de plaques d'appui conformées pour être fixées au niveau de la diaphyse fémorale, - une série de manchons d'accouplement de longueur et d'orientation angulaire différente, aptes à être rendus solidaires de l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque, - une série de vis céphaliques engagées librement dans les manchons à partir de l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque. Such a problem is solved in that the assembly comprises in combination, in a modular and interchangeable manner - a series of bearing plates shaped to be fixed at the level of the femoral shaft, - a series of coupling sleeves of length and different angular orientation, capable of being made integral with the upper end of the plate, - a series of cephalic screws freely engaged in the sleeves from the upper end of the plate.

Pour résoudre le problème posé de pouvoir accoupler la plaque d'appui à différents types de manchons, I'extrémité de la plaque présente angulairement, une portée de centrage conformée pour recevoir avec capacité de blocage en translation et en rotation, un manchon d'accouplement. To solve the problem posed of being able to couple the support plate to different types of sleeves, the end of the plate has angularly, a centering surface shaped to receive with locking capacity in translation and in rotation, a coupling sleeve .

Pour résoudre le problème posé d'assurer l'accouplement entre la plaque et le manchon correspondant, la portée de centrage est constituée par un alésage conique coopérant avec une portée conique complémentaire, formée à l'une des extrémités du manchon. To solve the problem posed of ensuring the coupling between the plate and the corresponding sleeve, the centering surface is constituted by a conical bore cooperating with a complementary conical surface, formed at one of the ends of the sleeve.

Pour résoudre le problème posé de respecter le grand axe du col et de tenir compte des éventuelles erreurs de visée, - soit la portée conique est formée en alignement coaxial avec le corps du manchon.  To solve the problem posed of respecting the long axis of the neck and taking account of possible aiming errors, - either the conical bearing is formed in coaxial alignment with the body of the sleeve.

- soit la portée conique est décalée angulairement, par rapport au corps du manchon.- Either the conical bearing is angularly offset, relative to the body of the sleeve.

Pour résoudre le problème posé d'accoupler les manchons sur la portée correspondante de la plaque d'appui, afin d'obtenir différentes orientations angulaires, un ergot apparait en débordement au niveau de la partie de raccordement entre la portée conique et le corps du manchon, pour coopérer avec des agencements formés en bout de la portée de centrage. To solve the problem posed of coupling the sleeves on the corresponding bearing surface of the support plate, in order to obtain different angular orientations, a lug appears in overflow at the level of the connection part between the conical bearing surface and the body of the sleeve. , to cooperate with arrangements formed at the end of the centering surface.

Les agencements sont constitués par deux échancrures diamètralement opposées. The arrangements consist of two diametrically opposite notches.

Le problème posé d'assurer le blocage angulaire de la vis céphalique dans le manchon correspondant accouplé à la plaque, est résolu en ce que l'alésage du manchon et le corps de la vis sont de section complémentaire présentant au moins un méplat longitudinal. The problem posed of ensuring the angular blocking of the cephalic screw in the corresponding sleeve coupled to the plate, is solved in that the bore of the sleeve and the body of the screw are of complementary section having at least one longitudinal flat.

Un autre problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de mettre en place, dans des conditions optimum, L'ensemble prothétique, tel que défini, en respectant parfaitement, le grand axe du col. Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to set up, under optimum conditions, the prosthetic assembly, as defined, while perfectly respecting the major axis of the neck.

Pour résoudre un tel problème, il a été conçu et mis au point un dispositif qui comprend un viseur équipé d'un bloc orientable angulairement, agencé pour recevoir selon différentes positions, une broche de visée pour déterminer l'axe du col, ledit viseur étant maintenu en position par un appareil écarteur coopérant avec les faces de l'os et les parties molles. To solve such a problem, a device has been designed and developed which comprises a viewfinder equipped with an angularly orientable block, arranged to receive according to different positions, an aiming pin to determine the axis of the neck, said viewfinder being held in position by a spacer device cooperating with the faces of the bone and the soft parts.

Pour résoudre le problème posé de respecter le grand axe du col, le viseur comprend une embase sur laquelle est monté avec capacité de déplacement en translation et de réglage en position1 un support recevant le bloc orientable monté avec capacité de réglage angulaire sur deux bras profilés en arc de cercle. To solve the problem posed of respecting the major axis of the neck, the viewfinder comprises a base on which is mounted with capacity for displacement in translation and adjustment in position1 a support receiving the orientable block mounted with capacity for angular adjustment on two arms profiled in arc.

Un autre problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de maintenir en place, le viseur, tout en ayant les deux mains libres. Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to keep the viewfinder in place while having both hands free.

Un tel problème est résolu en ce que l'appareil écarteur présente deux branches de préhension accouplées à un organe d'appui coopérant avec le viseur, les faces de l'os et les parties molles, lesdites branches agissant par élasticité sur ledit organe en étant maintenues en position de blocage avec l'organe par un système de blocage angulaire réglable. Such a problem is solved in that the spacer device has two gripping arms coupled to a support member cooperating with the viewfinder, the faces of the bone and the soft parts, said legs acting by elasticity on said member by being maintained in blocking position with the organ by an adjustable angular blocking system.

L'invention est exposée, ci-après, plus en détail à l'aide des dessins annexés, dans lesquels:

La figure 7 est une vue en coupe transversale considérée selon la ligne 7.7 de la figure 6.  FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along line 7.7 of FIG. 6.

Comme le montre la figure 1, L'ensemble prothétique selon l'invention, comprend une série de plaques d'appui (1), une série de manchons d'accouplement (2), et une série de vis céphalique (3). As shown in Figure 1, the prosthetic assembly according to the invention comprises a series of support plates (1), a series of coupling sleeves (2), and a series of cephalic screws (3).

Chacune des plaques d'appui (1) présente d'une manière connue, une série de trous (la) pour sa fixation au niveau de la diaphyse fémorale. La section transversale de la plaque (1) est très légèrement concave pour s'adapter à la forme anatomique du fémur. Each of the support plates (1) has, in a known manner, a series of holes (la) for fixing it at the level of the femoral shaft. The cross section of the plate (1) is very slightly concave to adapt to the anatomical shape of the femur.

Selon l'invention, I'extrémité supérieure de la plaque (1) présente angulairement, une portée de centrage (lob). Cette portée (1 b) est conformée pour permettre l'accouplement d'une manière démontable, des manchons (2), avec capacité de blocage en translation et en rotation. According to the invention, the upper end of the plate (1) angularly has a centering surface (lob). This bearing (1b) is shaped to allow coupling, in a removable manner, of the sleeves (2), with locking capacity in translation and in rotation.

Dans ce but, comme le montrent les figures 2, 3 et 4 notamment, la portée de centrage (lob) présente un alésage conique débouchant (obi) coopérant avec une portée conique complémentaire (2a) formée à l'une des extrémités du manchon correspondant (2). Cet assemblage par cônes (1 bi) (2a) permet d'assurer le blocage en translation du manchon (2) par rapport à la plaque (1).For this purpose, as shown in Figures 2, 3 and 4 in particular, the centering surface (lob) has a through conical bore (obi) cooperating with a complementary conical surface (2a) formed at one end of the corresponding sleeve (2). This assembly by cones (1 bi) (2a) ensures the locking in translation of the sleeve (2) relative to the plate (1).

Comme le montre la figure 1, le manchon d'accouplement (2) est exécuté selon différentes dimensions et est agencé pour être orienté selon différentes positions angulaires, par rapport à la portée de centrage (lob) de la plaque (1). Dans ce but, la portée de centrage conique (2a) est, soit formée en alignement coaxial avec le corps (2b) du manchon (2), soit décalée angulairement par rapport au corps (figures 1 et 3). As shown in Figure 1, the coupling sleeve (2) is executed in different dimensions and is arranged to be oriented in different angular positions, relative to the centering surface (lob) of the plate (1). For this purpose, the conical centering surface (2a) is either formed in coaxial alignment with the body (2b) of the sleeve (2), or angularly offset relative to the body (Figures 1 and 3).

A titre d'exemple indicatif, nullement limitatif, I'angulation entre la portée (2a) et le corps (2b), peut être de 3 , 6" et 10 . En ce qui concerne l'angulation entre la portée de centrage (lob) et la plaque (1), cette dernière est de l'ordre de 1300, correspondant à l'angle anatomique entre le grand axe du col et la face externe du fémur. As an indicative example, in no way limiting, the angulation between the bearing (2a) and the body (2b), can be 3, 6 "and 10. As regards the angulation between the centering bearing (lob ) and the plate (1), the latter is of the order of 1300, corresponding to the anatomical angle between the major axis of the neck and the external face of the femur.

II est donc possible d'obtenir des angulations cervicodiaphysaires variant de 1200 (130 - 10 ) à 140 (130 + 10 ) (figure 3). It is therefore possible to obtain cervicodiaphyseal angulations varying from 1200 (130 - 10) to 140 (130 + 10) (Figure 3).

Toujours en ayant pour objectif de diminuer le stock, tout en permettant l'accouplement en rotation des manchons par rapport la plaque (1), notamment par rapport à la portée de centrage (lob), chacun desdits manchons (2) présente un ergot (2c) destiné à coopérer avec des agencements formés en bout de ladite portée de centrage (lob). L'ergot (2c) est formé en débordement au niveau de la partie de raccordement entre la portée conique (2a) et le corps du manchon (2). Cet ergot est destiné à coopérer avec une des deux échancrures (lob2) (lob3) formées diamétralement en bout de la portée de centrage (lob).  Still having the objective of reducing the stock, while allowing the sleeves to rotate in rotation with respect to the plate (1), in particular with respect to the centering surface (lob), each of said sleeves (2) has a lug ( 2c) intended to cooperate with arrangements formed at the end of said centering surface (lob). The lug (2c) is formed in overflow at the connection part between the conical bearing (2a) and the body of the sleeve (2). This lug is intended to cooperate with one of the two notches (lob2) (lob3) formed diametrically at the end of the centering surface (lob).

On conçoit donc qu'en fonction de l'angulation de la portée conique (2a) du manchon et de l'engagement de l'ergot (2c) dans l'une ou l'autre des échancures, on obtiendra une angulation au dessus ou en dessous du grand axe. It can therefore be seen that, as a function of the angulation of the conical bearing surface (2a) of the sleeve and of the engagement of the lug (2c) in one or the other of the notches, an angulation will be obtained above or below the major axis.

Les vis céphaliques (3) sont réalisées d'une manière parfaitement connue, avec une tête filetée (3a) et une tige (3b) montée à libre coulissement dans l'alésage (2d) du manchon correspondant (2) et de la portée de centrage (lob), dont l'alésage débouche dans la plaque d'appui (la). Le blocage en rotation de la tige (3b) s'effectue au moyen de méplats (3b1) coopérant avec des méplats formés dans l'alésage (2d) du manchon (2). The cephalic screws (3) are produced in a perfectly known manner, with a threaded head (3a) and a rod (3b) mounted to slide freely in the bore (2d) of the corresponding sleeve (2) and of the bearing surface. centering (lob), the bore of which opens into the support plate (la). The rod (3b) is locked in rotation by means of flats (3b1) cooperating with flats formed in the bore (2d) of the sleeve (2).

Selon une autre caractéristique importante de l'invention, pour la mise en place de cet ensemble prothétique, on utilise un dispositif qui comprend essentiellement un viseur (4) et un appareil écarteur (5).  According to another important characteristic of the invention, for the installation of this prosthetic assembly, a device is used which essentially comprises a viewfinder (4) and a spacer device (5).

Comme le montre la figure 5, le viseur (4) comprend une embase (4a) sur laquelle est monté avec capacité de déplacement en translation et de réglage en position, un support (4b). Par exemple, le support (4b) est monté à libre coulissement dans l'embase (4a) par un système en queue d'arronde, tandis qu'une vis (6), engagée dans une lumière dudit support, assure le blocage en translation. As shown in Figure 5, the viewfinder (4) comprises a base (4a) on which is mounted with the ability to move in translation and position adjustment, a support (4b). For example, the support (4b) is mounted to slide freely in the base (4a) by a dovetail system, while a screw (6), engaged in a lumen of said support, ensures the locking in translation .

Sur le support (4b) est monté un bloc orientable (4c) agencé pour recevoir selon différentes positions, une tige de visée (7) pour déterminer l'axe du col. Le bloc (4c) est articulée en bout du support (4b) et coopère avec deux bras profilés en arc de cercle (4d) en y étant bloqué angulairement dans une lumière correspondante, au moyen d'un système de vis. Le bloc (4c) présente une série de trous (4c1) disposés en alignement, mais décalés angulairement par rapport au plan perpendiculaire passant par le grand axe du viseur. On the support (4b) is mounted an orientable block (4c) arranged to receive at different positions, an aiming rod (7) to determine the axis of the neck. The block (4c) is articulated at the end of the support (4b) and cooperates with two arms profiled in an arc (4d) by being angularly blocked therein in a corresponding lumen, by means of a screw system. The block (4c) has a series of holes (4c1) arranged in alignment, but offset angularly relative to the perpendicular plane passing through the major axis of the viewfinder.

A titre indicatif, les trous (4c1) sont décalés de + 5 , + 100, 50, - 100.  As an indication, the holes (4c1) are offset by + 5, + 100, 50, - 100.

L'écarteur (5) présente deux branches de préhension (5a) et (5b) reliées à un organe d'appui (5c) conformé pour coopérer avec le viseur (4), les faces de l'os et les parties molles (figure 7). L'organe (5c) à une section transversale en forme de U renversé pour coiffer la section du viseur (4), notamment du support (4b) en présentant deux ailes (5c1) et (5c2). Les extrémités de chacune des ailes présentent, en débordement de leurs faces internes, des pions (5c3) destinés à enserrer l'os. Les branches (5a) et (5b) agissent par élasticité sur l'organe (5c), notamment sur les ailes verticales (5cl) et (5c2) de cet organe. The retractor (5) has two gripping arms (5a) and (5b) connected to a support member (5c) shaped to cooperate with the viewfinder (4), the faces of the bone and the soft parts (FIG. 7). The member (5c) has a cross section in the shape of an inverted U to cover the cross section of the viewfinder (4), in particular of the support (4b) by presenting two wings (5c1) and (5c2). The ends of each of the wings have, overflowing their internal faces, pins (5c3) intended to grip the bone. The branches (5a) and (5b) act by elasticity on the member (5c), in particular on the vertical wings (5cl) and (5c2) of this member.

II apparait donc, lorsque l'on saisit chacune des branches de préhension de l'écarteur, en exerçant un effort dirigé vers le bas, le rapprochement concomitant des ailes (5cl) et (5c2) pour enserrer le viseur et la section de l'os. Le maintien en position d'écartement des deux branches (5a) et (5b) s'effectue par un système de blocage angulaire, par exemple sous forme d'une lame ressort (8) coopérant avec une barre crantée (9). La lame ressort (8) est solidaire de la branche (5b), tandis que la barre crantée (9) est solidaire de l'autre branche (5a).  It therefore appears, when one grasps each of the gripping branches of the retractor, by exerting a force directed downwards, the concomitant bringing together of the wings (5cl) and (5c2) to grip the viewfinder and the section of the bone. Maintaining the spacing position of the two branches (5a) and (5b) is effected by an angular locking system, for example in the form of a leaf spring (8) cooperating with a notched bar (9). The leaf spring (8) is integral with the branch (5b), while the notched bar (9) is integral with the other branch (5a).

II convient d'analyser maintenant le fonctionnement du dispositif pour la mise en place de l'ensemble prothétique. L'écarteur (5) est glissé en position ouverte sur les faces de l'os entre celui-ci et les parties molles. Une action d'appui sur les branches (5a) (5b) a pour effet de rapprocher par élasticité les ailes (5cl) (5c2) assurant ainsi la solidarisation du viseur (4) sur l'os. Le système (8) (9) assure le maintien en position. It is now necessary to analyze the operation of the device for the establishment of the prosthetic assembly. The retractor (5) is slid into the open position on the faces of the bone between the latter and the soft parts. A bearing action on the branches (5a) (5b) has the effect of bringing the wings (5cl) (5c2) resiliently, thereby securing the viewfinder (4) on the bone. The system (8) (9) maintains the position.

Après avoir effectué l'incision, le viseur (4) est placé sur l'os, en y étant maintenu par l'écarteur (5). Le bloc orientable (4c) est réglé à l'angulation voulue (généralement 1300 correspondant ainsi à l'angle cervico-diaphysaire). Une broche est placée dans le trou (O) du bloc, tandis qu'un amplificateur de brillance permet de vérifier si le point de pénétration de la broche est correct. S'il est trop haut, L'embase est reculée par rapport au support. After making the incision, the viewfinder (4) is placed on the bone, being held there by the retractor (5). The orientable block (4c) is adjusted to the desired angulation (generally 1300 thus corresponding to the cervico-diaphyseal angle). A pin is placed in the hole (O) of the block, while an image intensifier makes it possible to check whether the point of penetration of the pin is correct. If it is too high, the base is moved back relative to the support.

Après avoir convenablement déterminé l'orifice de pénétration, on enfonce la broche, en la suivant à l'amplificateur. Si l'axe de face n'est pas parfait, on change l'angulation du porte lame et l'on connaît alors la nouvelle angulation. Après avoir contrôlé la broche de face, I'amplificateur vérifie la position de profil. Si la broche n'est pas strictement dans l'axe du col, on l'enlève et on la place à + 5 ou - 5" dans le bloc orientable. Etant donné que le plan de la broche est immobile, toute visée de +10 à - 10 est forcément parfait au niveau de la face. After having correctly determined the penetration orifice, the spindle is pushed in, following it to the amplifier. If the front axis is not perfect, the angulation of the blade holder is changed and the new angulation is then known. After checking the spindle from the front, the amplifier checks the profile position. If the spindle is not strictly in the axis of the neck, we remove it and place it at + 5 or - 5 "in the orientable block. Since the plane of the spindle is stationary, any aiming of + 10 to - 10 is necessarily perfect on the face.

Les avantages ressortent bien de la description, en particulier on souligne et on rappelle:
- La diminution du stock de pièces.
The advantages clearly emerge from the description, in particular it is emphasized and recalled:
- The decrease in the stock of parts.

- L'interchangeabilité des manchons d'accouplement pour orienter d'une manière précise la vis céphalique en fonction du grand axe. - The interchangeability of the coupling sleeves to precisely orient the cephalic screw according to the major axis.

- La simplicité et l'efficacité du dispositif pour la mise en place de l'ensemble.  - The simplicity and efficiency of the device for the installation of the assembly.
