Abstract
Description
Jeu de cales fémorales notamment. Dour prothèse tricompartimentale de reprise du genou. Set of femoral wedges in particular. Dour three-compartment knee replacement prosthesis.
L'invention se rattache au secteur technique des prothèses de reprise notamment des prothèses tricompartimentales de reprise du genou. The invention relates to the technical sector of prostheses for recovery, in particular three-compartment prostheses for knee recovery.
Par définition, une prothèse de reprise a pour fonction de remplacer une prothèse déjà implantée depuis un certain temps et qu'il est nécessaire de changer pour des raisons diverses. Lorsque l'on procède au retrait de la prothèse initiale, il arrive très fréquemment d'enlever les morceaux d'os qui adhèrent directement à l'implant prothètique considéré ou au ciment ayant servi à la fixation de l'implant. Pour combler ces defects osseux, on peut utiliser des cales d'épaisseur. By definition, a prosthesis has the function of replacing a prosthesis already implanted for some time and that it is necessary to change for various reasons. When removing the initial prosthesis, it is very common to remove the pieces of bone that adhere directly to the prosthetic implant considered or to the cement used to fix the implant. To fill these bone defects, we can use shims.
Généralement, ces cales sont divisées en trois gammes, de sorte que le praticien a, à sa disposition, un jeu de cales distales, un jeu de cales postérieures, parfois un jeu de cales combinant à la fois le côté distal et le côté postérieur. Generally, these shims are divided into three ranges, so that the practitioner has, at his disposal, a set of distal shims, a set of posterior shims, sometimes a set of shims combining both the distal side and the posterior side.
II en résulte un très grand nombre de pièces compte-tenu, en outre, des différentes épaisseurs et du profil des cales qui n'est pas adapté pour le côté gauche et le côté droit. Ce nombre se trouve encore augmenté dans le cas d'une prothèse asymétrique où, là encore, la forme des cales doit être adaptée aux côtés inteme et exteme. This results in a very large number of parts taking into account, in addition, the different thicknesses and the profile of the shims which is not suitable for the left side and the right side. This number is further increased in the case of an asymmetric prosthesis where, again, the shape of the wedges must be adapted to the inner and outer sides.
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, effective and rational manner.
Le problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention, est de réduire d'une manière importante ce stock, en créant des cales qui soient modulaires et susceptibles d'être adaptées aussi bien pour un genou droit que pour un genou gauche, et pour les compartiments interne ou externe. The problem which the invention proposes to solve is to reduce this stock considerably, by creating wedges which are modular and capable of being adapted both for a right knee and for a left knee, and for internal or external compartments.
Pour résoudre un tel problème, il a été conçu et mis au point un jeu de cales fémorales notamment, pour prothèse tricompartimeatale de reprise du genou, qui comprend des cales postérieures et distales indépendantes de différentes épaisseurs et modulables de sorte que la longueur ou hauteur des cales postérieures (ou distales) est constante et déterminée en fonction de l'épaisseur la plus importante des cales distales (ou postérieures). To solve such a problem, a set of femoral wedges has been designed and developed in particular, for a three-part knee prosthesis, which includes independent posterior and distal wedges of different thicknesses and modular so that the length or height of the posterior (or distal) wedges is constant and determined according to the greatest thickness of the distal (or posterior) wedges.
Avantageusement, le problème posé précédemment exposé, est résolu par les caractéristiques suivantes:
- les cales postérieures sont de forme générale rectangulaire et présentent un coté transversal se raccordant avec les côtés latéraux, par de larges arrondis.Advantageously, the problem posed previously exposed, is solved by the following characteristics:
- the rear wedges are generally rectangular in shape and have a transverse side connecting with the lateral sides, by wide rounded edges.
- les cales distales sont de forme générale rectangulaire, les faces latérales étant biseautées pour correspondre très sensiblement au profil inteme des patins condyliens. - The distal wedges are generally rectangular in shape, the lateral faces being bevelled to correspond very substantially to the internal profile of the condylar pads.
- les bords latéraux des cales distales présentent, du côté antérieur de la prothèse, des chanfreins, pour s'adapter au profil anatomique de ladite prothèse. - The lateral edges of the distal wedges have, on the anterior side of the prosthesis, chamfers, to adapt to the anatomical profile of said prosthesis.
Un autre problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention, est d'améliorer la fixation de ces cales, par rapport à l'implant prothétique. Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to improve the fixing of these wedges, relative to the prosthetic implant.
En effet, selon l'état antérieur de la technique, la fixation des cales, au niveau de l'implant prothétique, s'effectue par un système de vis. In fact, according to the prior art, the fixing of the shims, at the level of the prosthetic implant, is carried out by a system of screws.
Dans ces conditions, il est nécessaire de fixer les cales préalablement à la mise en place de l'implant. Or, si la cale sélectionnée ne correspond pas, le praticien est obligé de procéder une nouvelle fois au retrait de la prothèse de reprise en vue de l'équiper d'une nouvelle cale. On conçoit que cette façon de procéder n'est pas rationnelle.Under these conditions, it is necessary to fix the wedges before the implantation is put in place. However, if the selected wedge does not correspond, the practitioner is obliged to proceed once again to the removal of the prosthesis in order to equip it with a new wedge. We understand that this way of proceeding is not rational.
Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, le problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention, est de pouvoir insérer et fixer les cales après mise en place de l'implant de reprise, avec la possibilité de retirer la ou les cales si nécessaire, sans etre obligé de retirer l'implant de reprise. To remedy these drawbacks, the problem which the invention proposes to solve is to be able to insert and fix the wedges after the implantation is put in place, with the possibility of removing the wedge or wedges if necessary, without being forced to remove the recovery implant.
Pour résoudre un tel problème, chaque cale présente des agencements de fixation coopérant avec des agencements complémentaires formés dans l'épaisseur des parties correspondantes, postérieure et distale des profils internes des patins condyliens, lesdits agencements étant aptes à permettre, d'une part, I'engagement et le retrait par le coté des cales après mise en place de la prothèse et, d'autre part, le blocage en translation desdites cales après mise en place. To solve such a problem, each wedge has fixing arrangements cooperating with complementary arrangements formed in the thickness of the corresponding, posterior and distal parts of the internal profiles of the condylar pads, said arrangements being capable of allowing, on the one hand, I engagement and removal by the side of the shims after fitting the prosthesis and, on the other hand, the blocking in translation of said shims after fitting.
Avantageusement, les agencements sont constitués par des bossages de profil longitudinal conique et de section transversale du type queue d'aronde, lesdits bossages étant formés en débordement de la face de dessous des cales postérieures et distales, en étant aptes à étre engagés dans des encoches complémentaires des patins condyliens, lesdites encoches étant en communication avec l'extérieur de la prothèse. Advantageously, the arrangements consist of bosses of conical longitudinal profile and of cross section of the dovetail type, said bosses being formed in overflow from the underside of the posterior and distal wedges, being able to be engaged in notches. complementary to the condylar pads, said notches being in communication with the outside of the prosthesis.

Le jeu de cales trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse, dans le cas d'un implant fémoral (F) d'une prothèse tricompartimentale de reprise du genou. La forme de l'implant fémoral (F), illustré aux figures des dessins, est donnée à titre indicatif nullement limitatif. The set of wedges finds a particularly advantageous application, in the case of a femoral implant (F) of a three-compartment knee prosthesis. The shape of the femoral implant (F), illustrated in the figures of the drawings, is given by way of non-limiting indication.
Selon l'invention, le jeu de cales comprend des cales postérieures (1) et distales (2) indépendantes les unes des autres. Les cales (1) et (2) sont exécutées en différentes épaisseurs, déterminées pour constituer un jeu de cales modulables. Dans ce but, la longueur (I) des cales postérieures (1) est constante, quelle que soit l'épaisseur des cales distales (2), et est déterminée en fonction de l'épaisseur la plus importante (E) des cales distales (2) ou inversement. According to the invention, the set of shims comprises posterior (1) and distal (2) shims independent of each other. The shims (1) and (2) are made in different thicknesses, determined to constitute a set of modular shims. For this purpose, the length (I) of the posterior wedges (1) is constant, whatever the thickness of the distal wedges (2), and is determined as a function of the greater thickness (E) of the distal wedges ( 2) or vice versa.
On renvoie aux figures 3 à 1 1 qui montrent différentes combinaisons possibles de cales postérieures (1) et distales (2). We refer to Figures 3 to 1 1 which show different possible combinations of posterior (1) and distal (2) wedges.
Par exemple, aux figures 3, 4, 5, les cales postérieures sont de même épaisseur et sont combinées avec des cales distales de différentes épaisseurs "3", "6", "9" (par exemple). Il en est de même aux figures 6, 7, 8 et 9, 10, 11, où les cales postérieures exécutées dans d'autres épaisseurs ("6" aux figures 6, 7, 8 et "9" aux figures 9, 10, 11) sont combinées avec des cales distales de différentes épaisseurs "3", "6", "9". For example, in FIGS. 3, 4, 5, the posterior wedges are of the same thickness and are combined with distal wedges of different thicknesses "3", "6", "9" (for example). The same is true in FIGS. 6, 7, 8 and 9, 10, 11, where the rear wedges made in other thicknesses ("6" in FIGS. 6, 7, 8 and "9" in FIGS. 9, 10, 11) are combined with distal shims of different thicknesses "3", "6", "9".
Les cales postérieures (1) sont de forme générale rectangulaire, et présentent un côté transversal se raccordant avec les côtés latéraux par de larges arrondis (1 a) et (il). Les cales distales (2) sont également de forme générale rectangulaire. Les faces latérales (2a) et (2b) sont biseautées pour correspondre très sensiblement aux chanfreins (a) (b) des profils internes des patins condyliens de l'implant fémoral. De même, les bords latéraux des cales distales (2) présentent, du côté antérieure de l'implant, des chanfreins (2c) (2d), pour s'adapter au profil anatomique dudit implant. The posterior wedges (1) are of generally rectangular shape, and have a transverse side which is connected with the lateral sides by wide rounded edges (1a) and (it). The distal wedges (2) are also generally rectangular in shape. The lateral faces (2a) and (2b) are bevelled to correspond very substantially to the chamfers (a) (b) of the internal profiles of the condylar pads of the femoral implant. Similarly, the lateral edges of the distal wedges (2) have, on the anterior side of the implant, chamfers (2c) (2d), to adapt to the anatomical profile of said implant.
Le profil de ces cales (1) et (2), en combinaison avec un jeu distal et un jeu postérieur, permet leur montage aussi bien pour le genou droit que pour le genou gauche, du côté du compartiment inteme et du compartiment exteme. Ces dispositions permettent donc d'avoir un nombre de cales réduit. The profile of these wedges (1) and (2), in combination with a distal clearance and a posterior clearance, allows their mounting both for the right knee and for the left knee, on the side of the internal compartment and the external compartment. These provisions therefore make it possible to have a reduced number of shims.
La fixation des cales s'effectue par un système complémentaire de bossages et rainures conformé pour permettre, d'une part, I'engagement et le retrait par le côté, desdites cales après mise en place de la prothèse et, d'autre part, le blocage en translation des cales après leur mise en place. The wedges are fixed by a complementary system of bosses and grooves shaped to allow, on the one hand, the engagement and withdrawal from the side, of said wedges after the prosthesis is put in place and, on the other hand, the blocking in translation of the shims after their installation.
La face de dessous des cales postérieures (1) et distales (2) présente, en débordement, un bossage (tic) et (2e) apte à être engagé dans des rainures ou encoches complémentaires (3) (4), formées dans l'épaisseur de la partie correspondante des patins condyliens. The underside of the posterior (1) and distal (2) wedges has, in overflow, a boss (tic) and (2e) capable of being engaged in complementary grooves or notches (3) (4), formed in the thickness of the corresponding part of the condylar pads.
Dans une forme de réalisation préférée, figures 15 et 16, chacun des bossages (lc) et (2e) et des rainures (3) (4) présente un profil longitudinal conique se section dégressive depuis le côté exteme de l'implant. La section transversale des bossages et des rainures est du type queue d'aronde. In a preferred embodiment, FIGS. 15 and 16, each of the bosses (lc) and (2e) and of the grooves (3) (4) has a conical longitudinal profile which tapers off from the outer side of the implant. The cross section of the bosses and grooves is of the dovetail type.
Selon une caractéristique importante, chaque rainure (3) et (4) est en communication avec le bord externe correspondant de l'implant fémoral. De telles dispositions permettent, d'une part, I'engagement et le retrait par le côté, des cales (1) et (2) après mise en place de l'implant et, d'autre part, le blocage en translation desdites cales après leur mise en place dans la rainure, compte-tenu du profil conique. According to an important characteristic, each groove (3) and (4) is in communication with the corresponding external edge of the femoral implant. Such arrangements allow, on the one hand, the engagement and removal from the side, of the shims (1) and (2) after the implant has been placed and, on the other hand, the blocking in translation of said shims after their installation in the groove, taking into account the conical profile.
En effet, il suffit de présenter la cale et de l'engager dans les entailles correspondantes (3a) et (4a), pour assurer le blocage en translation par coincement. In fact, it suffices to present the wedge and to engage it in the corresponding notches (3a) and (4a), to ensure the locking in translation by jamming.
Dans la forme de réalisation illustrée en variante, figures 12, 13 et 14, les bossages (tic) et (2e) et les rainures (3) et (4) sont rectilignes, chaque rainure (3) et (4) est en communication avec le bord externe correspondant de l'implant fémoral, par une entaille (3a) et (4a) de profondeur inférieure à celle de la rainure correspondante. Ces entailles (3a) et (4a) sont donc accessibles à partir du bord de l'implant. II suffit dans ce cas, de décaler très légèrement l'implant, de manière à engager angulairement les bossages (tic) et (2e) dans les entailles correspondants (3a) et (4a) pour positionner lesdits bossages dans les rainures, assurant ainsi le blocage en translation des cales. In the embodiment illustrated in a variant, FIGS. 12, 13 and 14, the bosses (tic) and (2e) and the grooves (3) and (4) are rectilinear, each groove (3) and (4) is in communication with the corresponding external edge of the femoral implant, by a notch (3a) and (4a) of depth less than that of the corresponding groove. These notches (3a) and (4a) are therefore accessible from the edge of the implant. In this case, it suffices to shift the implant very slightly, so as to angularly engage the bosses (tic) and (2e) in the corresponding notches (3a) and (4a) to position said bosses in the grooves, thus ensuring the blocking in translation of the shims.
Quelle que soit la forme de réalisation, en procédant aune manière inverse, il est possible de retirer, par les côtés, la ou les cales lorqu'il est nécessaire de choisir une autre épaisseur. Ces dispositions permettent donc d'éviter au maximum les micro-mouvements et surtout permettrent la mise en place de cales après impaction de l'implant de reprise. Whatever the embodiment, by proceeding in a reverse manner, it is possible to remove, by the sides, the shim (s) when it is necessary to choose another thickness. These provisions therefore make it possible to avoid micro-movements as much as possible and above all allow the installation of wedges after impaction of the recovery implant.
Bien évidemment, sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention, on prévoit d'autres profils en section, des bossages et des rainures, tels que par exemple, les profils en T. Obviously, without departing from the scope of the invention, other sectional profiles, bosses and grooves are provided, such as, for example, T-profiles.
Les avantages ressortent bien de la description, en particulier on souligne et on rappelle:
- le caractère modulable du jeu de cales permettant de réduire d'une manière conséquente leur nombre, facilitant ainsi l'intervention du praticien,
- la possibilité de mettre en place et de retirer, par les côtés, si nécessaire les cales, sans être obligé de retirer l'ensemble de l'implant. The advantages clearly emerge from the description, in particular it is emphasized and recalled:
- the modular nature of the set of wedges making it possible to reduce their number considerably, thus facilitating the intervention of the practitioner,
- the possibility of placing and removing, by the sides, if necessary the shims, without being obliged to remove the entire implant.
