Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un ligament artificiel de consolidation ou de remplacement. The present invention relates to an artificial ligament for consolidation or replacement.
Les ligaments artificiels connus qui sont réalisés en matière textile sont constitués d'un faisceau de fibres longitudinales qui sont coupées à une certaine longueur en fonction de l'implantation choisie. Cependant, ce faisceau de fibres a généralement une épaisseur non négligeable et pose des problèmes de fixation sur les zones osseuses à relier. The known artificial ligaments which are made of textile material consist of a bundle of longitudinal fibers which are cut to a certain length depending on the implantation chosen. However, this bundle of fibers generally has a non-negligible thickness and poses problems of fixation on the bony areas to be connected.
En effet, les brins du faisceau doivent être solidarisés à leurs extrémités afin d'obtenir une tenue mécanique satisfaisante et cela est d'autant plus difficile que les fibres longitudinales sont nombreuses. Indeed, the strands of the bundle must be joined at their ends in order to obtain satisfactory mechanical strength and this is all the more difficult as the longitudinal fibers are numerous.
Par ailleurs, les opérations consistant à ligaturer les extrémités du ligament sont laborieuses et délicates et ne peuvent être faites au préalable puisque la longueur de ligament nécessaire varie à chaque intervention. Furthermore, the operations consisting in ligating the ends of the ligament are laborious and delicate and cannot be done beforehand since the length of ligament required varies with each intervention.
La présente invention a pour but de résoudre ces inconvénients ou du moins de les atténuer. The object of the present invention is to solve these drawbacks or at least to reduce them.
Ce but est atteint au moyen d'un ligament artificiel de consolidation ou de remplacement, caractérisé en ce qu'il est constitué d'une bande mince, souple et inextensible qui possède une largeur constante. This object is achieved by means of an artificial consolidation or replacement ligament, characterized in that it consists of a thin, flexible and inextensible strip which has a constant width.
Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, ladite bande comporte au moins dans une partie centrale des segments transversaux de renfort disposés à intervalles réguliers. According to an advantageous characteristic, said strip comprises at least in a central part of the transverse reinforcement segments arranged at regular intervals.
Selon une autre caractéristique, ladite bande comporte des segments longitudinaux de renfort. According to another characteristic, said strip comprises longitudinal reinforcement segments.
Selon encore une autre caractéristique, ladite bande est constituée d'un filet. According to yet another characteristic, said strip consists of a net.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, accompagnée des dessins annexés sur lesquels
- la figure 1 représente une vue de dessus du ligament de l'invention.The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, accompanied by the appended drawings in which
- Figure 1 shows a top view of the ligament of the invention.
Le ligament illustré par la figure 1 est constitué d'une bande mince 1 réalisée avec une matière souple et inextensible et de préférence avec une matière textile en filet (par exemple de type RACHEL). The ligament illustrated in Figure 1 consists of a thin strip 1 made with a flexible and inextensible material and preferably with a mesh textile material (for example of the RACHEL type).
La bande 1 possède une largeur constante et est fabriquée de façon continue en grande longueur. The strip 1 has a constant width and is continuously produced in great length.
La bande 1 comporte des lignes ou segments longitudinaux 3 de renfort ainsi que des segments transversaux 2 de renfort au moins dans une partie centrale. The strip 1 comprises longitudinal lines or segments 3 of reinforcement as well as transverse segments 2 of reinforcement at least in a central part.
Les segments transversaux 2 sont disposés à intervalles réguliers pour permettre la découpe de la bande à la longueur désirée sans provoquer d'effilochure à sa lisière. The transverse segments 2 are arranged at regular intervals to allow the strip to be cut to the desired length without causing fraying at its edge.
De la même façon, on peut découper la bande dans le sens longitudinal afin de réduire sa largeur sans provoquer d'effilochure sur sa lisière latérale. Une fois la bande 1 découpée en longueur et éventuellement en largeur la fixation sur les zones osseuses environnantes est très facile en raison de l'absence de ligature et s'effectue au travers des mailles du filet. Similarly, the strip can be cut in the longitudinal direction to reduce its width without causing fraying on its side edge. Once the strip 1 cut in length and possibly in width, the attachment to the surrounding bony areas is very easy due to the absence of ligation and is carried out through the cracks.
Selon une variante de réalisation (non représentée) la zone située entre deux segments transversaux 2 consécutifs comporte un oeilleton éventuellement renforcé adapté à la suture sur une zone osseuse. According to an alternative embodiment (not shown), the zone situated between two consecutive transverse segments 2 comprises an optionally reinforced eyecup suitable for suturing on a bony zone.
