Abstract

Intervertebral lumbar cage (CH) intended for internal retention during lumbar discectomy. It is characterised by a specific geometry which confers upon it properties able to promote osseous fusion and which makes it easier to position. The cage (1) is bullet-shaped and has wide slots with sharp edges (2) about the circumference and a distal notch (7) intended to hold it on a stable base during the operations of filling with bone and screwing and caulking of the base nut (5). This nut is provided with a threaded central hole which allows the cage to be placed between the vertebrae with the aid of an introduction tool. The rotational movements of the cage or the forward or rearward sliding movements of the cage are prevented, respectively, by the sharp edges which embed in the vertebral plateaus and by the abutment formed by the vertebral bodies between which it is fitted. The blocking effect is completed by the roughened surface of the cage. It is envisaged that the cage be made of titanium alloy or of equivalent materials, either absorbable or non-absorbable. These materials satisfy the criteria of biocompatibility and mechanical stability and allow computerised tomography and magnetic resonance examinations to be carried out free of interference.

Description

La presente invention concerne une cage de contention destinée à être insérée entre deux vertèbres pour étayer l'espace intervertébral.The present invention relates to a compression cage intended to be inserted between two vertebrae to support the intervertebral space.

L'insertion d'une telle cage permet de procéder à la mise en place d'un greffon osseux destiné à fusionner les deux vertèbres entre lesquelles il est placé.The insertion of such a cage makes it possible to place a bone graft intended to merge the two vertebrae between which it is placed.

La cage, objet de cette invention, est donc une cage de fusion osseuse intersomatique. Elle est plus particulièrement destinée à la reconstruction de la partie lombaire de la colonne vertébrale lorsque cclle-ci est atteinte de dégénéressences (spondylolisthésis ou autres) qui ne peuvent être résorbées par d'autres méthodes.The cage, object of this invention, is therefore an intersomatic bone fusion cage. It is more particularly intended for the reconstruction of the lumbar part of the spine when the latter is affected by degeneration (spondylolisthesis or others) which cannot be absorbed by other methods.

Cette reconstruction permet - lorsqu'elle est réussie - la restitution de la quasi totalité des fonctions mécaniques de la colonne lombaire.This reconstruction allows - when it is successful - the restitution of almost all the mechanical functions of the lumbar spine.

La fusion osseuse entre vertèbres lombaires, par abord postérieur, a été initiée dans les années 40 avec des fortunes diverses.Bone fusion between lumbar vertebrae, by posterior approach, was initiated in the 1940s with various fortunes.

Au début elle a été réalisée sans interposition de dispositif de contention intégré avec des résultats aléatoires.At the beginning it was carried out without the interposition of an integrated restraint device with random results.

En particulier l'écrasement et la migration de l'implant osseux constituait un obstable majeur.In particular, the crushing and migration of the bone implant was a major obstacle.

Par la suite, la nécessité d'interposer un dispositif de contention intégré s'est imposée.Subsequently, the need to interpose an integrated restraint device arose.

De tels dispositifs de contention ont été réalisés sous des formes diverses (parallélipédiques, cylindriques avec filetages externes, etc...). ris sont souvent affectés des inconvénients inhérents à leurs formes telles que difficultés de mise en place et de préparation du site d'insertion, nécessité d'adjoindre un matériel d'ostéosynthèse postérieur pour faciliter la fusion osseuse - d'où artefacs au scanner ou à l'IRM.Such compression devices have been produced in various forms (parallelepiped, cylindrical with external threads, etc.). reefs are often affected by the disadvantages inherent in their forms such as difficulties in setting up and preparing the insertion site, need to add posterior osteosynthesis material to facilitate bone fusion - hence artefacs with the scanner or MRI.

La cage intersomatique objet de la présente invention vise à sunnonter ces inconvénients avec une mise en place plus sure.The interbody cage object of the present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks with a safer implementation.

Elle est caractérisée par une géométrie particulière et par le choix des matériaux qui lui confièrent les propriétés suivantes: - Biocompatibilité et résistance à I'écrasement. It is characterized by a particular geometry and by the choice of materials which give it the following properties: - Biocompatibility and resistance to crushing.

- Commodité de préparation du site d'implantation.- Convenience of site preparation.

- Volume de réceptacle convenant au logement d'une quantité d'os adéquate.- Receptacle volume suitable for housing an adequate amount of bone.

- Blocage de la cage en rotation. - Locking of the cage in rotation.

- Antéro ou postéro reptation du module interdite.- Antero or postero reptation of the module prohibited.

- Pas d'artefats engendrés au scanner ou à l'IRM.- No artifacts generated on CT or MRI.

La figure I de la planche 112 montre un mode de réalisation préférentiel mais non exclusif de la cage.Figure I of the board 112 shows a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of the cage.

Celle-ci est constituée d'un corps creux (1) en forme d'obus. L'intérieur du corps sera rempli d'os spongieux introduit en bourrant fortement.This consists of a hollow body (1) in the shape of a shell. The inside of the body will be filled with cancellous bone introduced by heavy stuffing.

Quatre larges lumières (2) avec arêtes vives sont aménagées régulièrement sur le pourtour du corps. Elles rendent possible un contact de l'os spongieux avec les plateaux vertébraux sus et sous jacents, ce qui permettra une fusion osseuse.Four large lights (2) with sharp edges are regularly fitted around the body. They make possible a contact of the cancellous bone with the vertebral plates above and underlying, which will allow a bone fusion.

lees arêtes vives s'incrusteront dans les plateaux correspondants des vertèbres sitôt que la distraction à laquelle celles-ci sont soumises pour la mise en place sera relâchée. the sharp edges will become embedded in the corresponding trays of the vertebrae as soon as the distraction to which they are subjected for the positioning is released.

Cette incrustation empêchera ainsi toute rotation de la cage.This incrustation will thus prevent any rotation of the cage.

Par ailleurs, préalablement à la mise en place de la cage, des logements auront été aménagés dans les plateaux vertébraux correspondants pour recevoir la tête (3) et le fond de la cage (4).Furthermore, prior to the positioning of the cage, housings will have been arranged in the corresponding vertebral plates to receive the head (3) and the bottom of the cage (4).

Ces logements sont respectivement situés à quelques millimètres des bords postérieur et antérieur des corps vertébraux qui constituent ainsi une butée empêchant tout mouvement d'avancée ou de recul de la cage.These housings are respectively located a few millimeters from the posterior and anterior edges of the vertebral bodies which thus constitute a stop preventing any movement of advancement or retreat of the cage.

De plus, les surfaces extérieures de la cage sont rendues rugueuses pour supprimer, par frottement, toute tendance au mouvement. II en résulte un blocage respectif de la cage et des vertèbres sus et sous jacentes. Ce blocage favorise la repousse bosseuse.In addition, the outer surfaces of the cage are made rough to eliminate, by friction, any tendency to movement. This results in a respective blockage of the cage and the above and underlying vertebrae. This blockage promotes bumpy regrowth.

Il est clair que l'aménagement des logements dans les plateaux vertébraux - à l'aide de forets ou de fraises de dimensions adaptées - est grandement facilité par les formes géométriques simples de la cage.It is clear that the arrangement of the housings in the vertebral plates - using drills or cutters of suitable dimensions - is greatly facilitated by the simple geometric shapes of the cage.

Le fond de la cage (4) comporte un filetage sur lequel vient se visser un écrou (5).The bottom of the cage (4) has a thread on which is screwed a nut (5).

Cet écrou n'est monté qu'après avoir rempli la cage d'os spongieux. Après montage l'écrou est bloqué en place par matage.This nut is only mounted after filling the cage with cancellous bone. After mounting the nut is locked in place by matting.

L'écrou comporte à sa partie centrale un trou fileté (6) qui permettra l'installation du module cage J écrou sur un outillage - tel que tournevis à embout fileté - permettant sa mise en place.The nut has at its central part a threaded hole (6) which will allow the installation of the cage module J nut on a tool - such as screwdriver with threaded tip - allowing its installation.

Une fois celleti effectuée, I'outillage pourra être retiré. Once this is done, the tools can be removed.

La tète de la cage comporte une échancrure (7) permettant le maintien sur un socle lors du remplissage de la cage et du vissage de l'écrou.The head of the cage has a notch (7) allowing it to be held on a base when filling the cage and screwing the nut.

Cette échancrure accroît l'espace par lequel la repousse osseuse peut s'accomplir.This notch increases the space through which bone regrowth can be accomplished.

La réalisation de la cage intersomatique est prévue en alliage de titane avec ou sans revêtement Le choix de cet alliage n'exclut pas d'autres matériaux biocompatibles, résorbables ou non.The intersomatic cage is made of titanium alloy with or without coating. The choice of this alloy does not exclude other biocompatible materials, absorbable or not.

Une gamme de cages de tailles différentes est prévue pour répondre aux divers besoins.A range of cages of different sizes is provided to meet various needs.

L'appareillage d'un étage intervertébral est prévu à l'aide de deux cages intersomatiques.The apparatus of an intervertebral stage is provided using two interbody cages.

La planche 212 (figures 5 et 6) montre - à des fins informatives - la position occupée par ces cages. Plate 212 (Figures 5 and 6) shows - for information purposes - the position occupied by these cages.
