Description
DISPOSITIF DE CENTRAGE POUR TIGE CIMENTEE DE
PROTHESE TOTALE DE HANCHE
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de centrage distal pour une tige fémorale de prothèse totale de hanche destinée à être cimentée à l'intérieur d'un fût fémoral.CENTERING DEVICE FOR CEMENTED ROD OF
TOTAL HIP PROSTHESIS
The present invention relates to a distal centering device for a femoral stem of total hip prosthesis intended to be cemented inside a femoral barrel.
L'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse dans le domaine de l'orthopédie, pour assurer notamment les fonctions de guidage et de centrage lors de l'implantation d'une tige cimentée au sein du canal médullaire d'un os long. The invention finds a particularly advantageous application in the field of orthopedics, in particular to provide the guiding and centering functions during the implantation of a cemented rod within the medullary canal of a long bone.
Les dispositifs de centrage connus de l'état de la technique sont généralement constitués par une cale en métal ou en ciment, mise en place à l'extrémité distale de la tige fémorale à cimenter, et présentant une forme extérieure dont au moins une section est complémentaire du canal médullaire avec lequel elle est destinée à coopérer par contact. Cette conformation permet avant tout de garantir le placement et le maintien de l'implant par rapport au fémur, dans une position définie et reproductible. Cette particularité joue également un rôle important lors de l'introduction proprement dite de la prothèse à l'intérieur du fût fémoral, en assurant le guidage de la partie distale de la tige le long du canal médullaire de l'os. The centering devices known from the prior art generally consist of a metal or cement wedge, placed at the distal end of the femoral stem to be cemented, and having an external shape of which at least one section is complementary to the spinal canal with which it is intended to cooperate by contact. This conformation makes it possible above all to guarantee the placement and the maintenance of the implant relative to the femur, in a defined and reproducible position. This feature also plays an important role during the actual introduction of the prosthesis inside the femoral barrel, by guiding the distal part of the stem along the medullary canal of the bone.
Ce type de dispositif, communément appelé centreur, présente toutefois un inconvénient majeur dans le cas spécifique des prothèses totales de hanche cimentées. En effet, l'implantation de ces dernières requiert l'utilisation quasi systématique d'un obturateur afin de contenir le ciment de liaison au niveau de la tige fémorale, et ainsi de l'empêcher de s'écouler plus bas à l'intérieur du canal médullaire de l'os. Dans la pratique, l'obturateur puis le ciment sont préalablement introduits dans la cavité fémorale, la tige munie de la cale étant alors impactée dans l'os. Or, comme le dispositif de centrage présente une section sensiblement identique à celle du canal médullaire, il n'existe quasiment aucune possibilité de passage pour le ciment de liaison, dont une grande partie se retrouve par conséquent piégée entre le centreur et l'obturateur. Le rapprochement de ces deux éléments, inhérent à l'introduction de la tige fémorale dans le canal médullaire, va dans un premier temps comprimer de manière significative le ciment de liaison. This type of device, commonly called a centering device, however has a major drawback in the specific case of cemented total hip prostheses. Indeed, the implantation of the latter requires the almost systematic use of a obturator in order to contain the bonding cement at the level of the femoral stem, and thus to prevent it from flowing lower inside the bone marrow canal. In practice, the obturator and then the cement are previously introduced into the femoral cavity, the rod provided with the wedge then being impacted in the bone. However, as the centering device has a section substantially identical to that of the medullary canal, there is almost no possibility of passage for the binding cement, a large part of which is therefore trapped between the centering device and the obturator. The bringing together of these two elements, inherent in the introduction of the femoral stem into the medullary canal, will initially compress significantly the binding cement.
Ensuite tout nouveau déplacement du dispositif de centrage va avoir pour effet de pousser l'obturateur dans le fût fémoral par effet piston. Les conséquences engendrées par ce phénomène se matérialisent alors par un positionnement très éloigné de l'obturateur par rapport à l'extrémité distale de la tige fémorale, et par conséquent par la formation d'un bouchon de ciment de longueur trop importante.Then any further movement of the centering device will have the effect of pushing the obturator into the femoral barrel by piston effect. The consequences engendered by this phenomenon then materialize by positioning very far from the obturator with respect to the distal end of the femoral stem, and consequently by the formation of a cement plug of too long length.
Si pour quelques raisons que ce soit, il est nécessaire d'effectuer ultérieurement une reprise de l'implant, I'élimination dudit bouchon constituera à n'en pas douter une opération longue et très délicate. L'extrême dureté du ciment par rapport aux tissus osseux environnants est de plus susceptible de compliquer significativement cette opération, et ceci d'autant plus que le chirurgien voudra éviter au maximum les fausses routes. If for some reason whatsoever, it is necessary to perform an implant recovery later, the elimination of said plug will undoubtedly constitute a long and very delicate operation. The extreme hardness of the cement compared to the surrounding bone tissue is more likely to significantly complicate this operation, and this all the more since the surgeon will want to avoid false routes as much as possible.
Le phénomène de surpression interne rend également vain un positionnement précis de l'obturateur par rapport à l'extrémité distale de la tige fémorale. L'effet piston génère en effet une accumulation maximale de ciment entre ces deux éléments, et par conséquent accroît leur écartement relatif de manière plus ou moins aléatoire par rapport à ce qui aurait pu être théoriquement envisagé. The phenomenon of internal overpressure also renders precise positioning of the obturator relative to the distal end of the femoral stem futile. The piston effect indeed generates a maximum accumulation of cement between these two elements, and consequently increases their relative spacing in a more or less random manner compared to what could have been theoretically envisaged.
Aussi le problème technique à résoudre par l'objet de la présente invention est de proposer un dispositif de centrage pour tige fémorale cimentée de prothèse totale de hanche, destiné à être positionné à l'extrémité distale de ladite tige fémorale afin d'en assurer le guidage ainsi que le centrage à l'intérieur d'un fût fémoral dans lequel auront été préalablement introduits un obturateur et un ciment de liaison, dispositif de centrage dont l'utilisation n'engendrerait pas de déplacements involontaires et aléatoires de l'obturateur qui pourrait par conséquent être mis en place de manière précise au moyen d'un dispositif de positionnement adéquat, afin de réaliser un bouchon de ciment de longueur déterminée. Also the technical problem to be solved by the object of the present invention is to propose a centering device for cemented femoral stem of total hip prosthesis, intended to be positioned at the distal end of said femoral stem in order to ensure its guide as well as centering inside a femoral barrel into which a obturator and a bonding cement will have been previously introduced, centering device whose use would not cause involuntary and random movements of the obturator which could therefore be set up precisely by means of a suitable positioning device, in order to produce a cement plug of determined length.
La solution au problème technique posé consiste, selon la présente invention, en ce que ledit dispositif de centrage présente une structure perméable apte à laisser passer le ciment de liaison au moment de l'implantation de la tige fémorale dans le canal médullaire de l'os. The solution to the technical problem posed consists, according to the present invention, in that said centering device has a permeable structure capable of allowing the bonding cement to pass during the implantation of the femoral stem in the medullary canal of the bone. .
Il est bien évident qu'à cet instant précis, le ciment de liaison est assimilable à un fluide viscoélastique, par conséquent susceptible de s'écouler à travers la structure spécifique du dispositif de centrage. Malgré une viscosité élevée, résultant de frottements relativement importants entre les molécules qui le composent, le ciment va dans un premier temps épouser fidèlement chaque partie de l'espace disponible entre l'obturateur et le centreur. Puis il va s'échapper à travers ce dernier au fur et à mesure de l'enfoncement de la tige, de manière à éviter avantageusement toute augmentation de pression susceptible de déplacer ledit obturateur. It is quite obvious that at this precise moment, the bonding cement can be assimilated to a viscoelastic fluid, consequently liable to flow through the specific structure of the centering device. Despite a high viscosity, resulting from relatively high friction between the molecules that make it up, the cement will initially faithfully match each part of the space available between the shutter and the centralizer. Then it will escape through the latter as the rod is pushed in, so as to advantageously avoid any increase in pressure liable to displace said shutter.
Il est à noter que la notion de structure perméable recouvre n'importe quelle forme apte à se laisser traverser par le ciment de liaison, quel que soit le nombre de passages disponibles, leur conformation, leurs dimensions ou leur disposition relative. Ces passages peuvent par conséquent être constitués par des alésages, des rainures, ou tous autres lumières traversantes plus ou moins régulières. Ils peuvent également communiquer les uns avec les autres et former éventuellement un réseau complexe d'écoulement. It should be noted that the concept of permeable structure covers any form capable of being let through by the bonding cement, whatever the number of available passages, their conformation, their dimensions or their relative arrangement. These passages can therefore be constituted by bores, grooves, or any other more or less regular through holes. They can also communicate with each other and possibly form a complex flow network.
Selon une particularité de l'invention, la forme générale du dispositif de centrage est profilée afin d'offrir un minimum de résistance vis-à-vis du ciment de liaison et ainsi d'en favoriser l'écoulement. Cette conformation particulière du centreur, tout comme sa structure perméable, tend à limiter au maximum l'effet piston rencontré dans l'art antérieur ; phénomène résultant de l'introduction dans le canal médullaire d'un élément présentant une forme complémentaire sur au moins une section. According to a feature of the invention, the general shape of the centering device is profiled in order to offer a minimum of resistance with respect to the bonding cement and thus to promote its flow. This particular configuration of the centering device, like its permeable structure, tends to limit the piston effect encountered in the prior art as much as possible; phenomenon resulting from the introduction into the medullary canal of an element having a complementary shape on at least one section.
Puisque l'implantation d'une prothèse cimentée pourvue d'un tel dispositif de centrage n'engendre pas de déplacement de l'obturateur, il est possible de former un bouchon de ciment de longueur déterminée en plaçant de manière précise ledit obturateur à l'intérieur du canal médullaire de l'os. Since the implantation of a cemented prosthesis provided with such a centering device does not cause displacement of the obturator, it is possible to form a cement plug of determined length by precisely placing said obturator at the inside the bone marrow canal.
C'est pourquoi de manière particulièrement avantageuse, le centreur objet de la présente invention peut être utilisé en combinaison avec un obturateur mis en place au moyen d'un dispositif de positionnement d'une extrême précision.This is why, in a particularly advantageous manner, the centering object of the present invention can be used in combination with a shutter implemented by means of an extremely precise positioning device.
La partie de cet ancillaire, destinée à être insérée dans la cavité fémorale, comporte pour cela une portion dont la forme est sensiblement identique à la partie proximale de la tige fémorale. Cette partie insérable du dispositif de positionnement présente également une longueur supérieure ou égale à la somme des longueurs, respectivement de la partie insérable de ladite tige fémorale et du dispositif de centrage. L'obturateur, monté amovible à l'extrémité du dispositif de positionnement, pourra être ainsi mis en place dans le canal médullaire à une profondeur donnée, et être alors séparé du centreur d'un intervalle tout aussi déterminé, une fois la tige fémorale cimentée. Cet intervalle, et par conséquent la longueur du bouchon de ciment qui en résulte, correspond précisément à la différence entre les longueurs respectives des parties insérables du dispositif de positionnement d'une part et de la tige couplée à son centreur d'autre part. The part of this ancillary, intended to be inserted into the femoral cavity, comprises for this a portion whose shape is substantially identical to the proximal part of the femoral stem. This insertable part of the positioning device also has a length greater than or equal to the sum of the lengths, respectively of the insertable part of said femoral stem and of the centering device. The obturator, removably mounted at the end of the positioning device, can thus be placed in the medullary canal at a given depth, and then be separated from the centralizer by an equally determined interval, once the femoral stem is cemented . This interval, and consequently the length of the resulting cement plug, corresponds precisely to the difference between the respective lengths of the insertable parts of the positioning device on the one hand and of the rod coupled to its centralizer on the other hand.
La description qui va suivre en regard des dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, fera bien comprendre en quoi consiste l'invention et comment elle peut être réalisée. The description which follows with reference to the appended drawings, given by way of nonlimiting examples, will make it clear what the invention consists of and how it can be implemented.

Figure 7 is a longitudinal section illustrating the assembly of the various elements making up the ancillary device of Figure 5 on the one hand, and the positioning device of Figure 6 on the other hand.
Pour des raisons de clarté, les mêmes éléments ont été désignés par des références identiques. De même, seules les éléments essentiels pour la compréhension de l'invention ont été représentés, et ceci sans respect de l'échelle et de manière schématique. For reasons of clarity, the same elements have been designated by identical references. Likewise, only the elements essential for understanding the invention have been shown, and this without respecting the scale and in a schematic manner.
Conformément aux figures 1 et 2, le dispositif de centrage 1 est constitué d'un élément central 2 de forme sensiblement cylindro-ogivale, autour duquel sont réparties régulièrement trois ailettes de centrage 3a, 3b, 3c. Celles-ci sont disposées longitudinalement le long des génératrices de la partie proximale cylindrique 4 de l'élément centrale 2, et s'étendent radialement de manière à ce que leurs extrémités respectives 5a, 5b, 5c puissent venir au contact du canal médullaire de l'os. According to Figures 1 and 2, the centering device 1 consists of a central element 2 of substantially cylindro-ogival shape, around which are regularly distributed three centering fins 3a, 3b, 3c. These are arranged longitudinally along the generatrices of the cylindrical proximal part 4 of the central element 2, and extend radially so that their respective ends 5a, 5b, 5c can come into contact with the medullary canal of the 'bone.
Dans ce mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le dispositif de centrage 1 ne comporte que trois ailettes de centrage 3a, 3b, 3c. Ceci constitue la configuration minimale idéale pour réaliser une immobilisation suivant deux dimensions, en l'occurrence dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe médullaire de l'os. Des variantes peuvent bien évidement être envisagées, sachant que l'utilisation de plus de trois ailettes n'améliore pas significativement les fonctions de guidage et de centrage mais augmente désavantageusement les points de contact entre le centreur et l'os. Il en résulte une diminution proportionnelle de la surface de contact entre le ciment et l'os, diminution préjudiciable à la tenue dans le temps de la prothèse cimentée. L'emploi d'uniquement deux ailettes est par contre totalement à déconseiller puisqu'il ne permet d'assurer une immobilisation véritable que suivant une seule direction, orthogonale à l'axe médullaire de l'os. On pourrait alors envisager d'élargir lesdites ailettes mais ce serait au détriment des dimensions des zones 6, 7, 8 réservées au passage du ciment de liaison, sans pour autant atteindre de toutes façons la stabilité offerte par le mode de réalisation préféré. In this preferred embodiment of the invention, the centering device 1 only has three centering fins 3a, 3b, 3c. This constitutes the ideal minimum configuration for immobilizing in two dimensions, in this case in a plane perpendicular to the medullary axis of the bone. Variations can obviously be envisaged, knowing that the use of more than three fins does not significantly improve the guiding and centering functions but disadvantageously increases the points of contact between the centering device and the bone. This results in a proportional decrease in the contact surface between the cement and the bone, a decrease detrimental to the durability of the cemented prosthesis. The use of only two fins, on the other hand, is totally to be discouraged since it only allows real immobilization in one direction, orthogonal to the medullary axis of the bone. We could then consider widening said fins, but this would be to the detriment of the dimensions of zones 6, 7, 8 reserved for the passage of the bonding cement, without however achieving the stability offered by the preferred embodiment.
Ainsi qu'on peut le voir sur la figure 2, la répartition régulière des ailettes 3a, 3b, 3c, et conséquemment celle des zones de passage 6, 7, 8, permet de conférer au dispositif de centrage 1 une forme symétrique apte à garantir une certaine homogénéité tant au niveau du maintien multidirectionnel de la prothèse, que de la répartition proprement dite du ciment de liaison. L'extrémité 5a, 5b, 5c de chaque ailette 3a, 3b, 3c se présente sous la forme d'une portion de surface cylindrique sensiblement complémentaire de celle du canal médullaire avec laquelle elle est destinée à coopérer par contact. As can be seen in FIG. 2, the regular distribution of the fins 3a, 3b, 3c, and consequently that of the passage zones 6, 7, 8, makes it possible to give the centering device 1 a symmetrical shape capable of guaranteeing a certain homogeneity both in terms of the multidirectional support of the prosthesis, as well as the actual distribution of the bonding cement. The end 5a, 5b, 5c of each fin 3a, 3b, 3c is in the form of a portion of cylindrical surface substantially complementary to that of the medullary canal with which it is intended to cooperate by contact.
Conformément à la figure 1, chaque ailette de centrage 3a, 3b, 3c présente en outre une section en forme de fuseau par rapport à la direction radiale dans laquelle elle s'étend. Cette forme renflée au milieu et se tenninant en pointe aux deux extrémités permet avantageusement d'offrir un minimum de résistance vis-à-vis de l'écoulement du ciment de liaison lesdites extrémités étant disposées suivant un axe parallèle aux génératrices de la partie proximale cylindrique 4 de l'élément central 2, c'est-à-dire sensiblement suivant la direction d'écoulement. Cette direction correspond par ailleurs à l'axe suivant lequel le dispositif de centrage 1 est destiné à être déplacé dans le canal médullaire de l'os. La conformation ogivale de la partie distale 9 de l'élément central 2 est également définie pour favoriser l'écoulement du ciment de liaison au cours de l'introduction de la prothèse dans le fût fémoral. According to Figure 1, each centering fin 3a, 3b, 3c further has a spindle-shaped section relative to the radial direction in which it extends. This swollen shape in the middle and tenning in a point at the two ends advantageously makes it possible to offer a minimum of resistance with regard to the flow of the bonding cement, said ends being arranged along an axis parallel to the generatrices of the cylindrical proximal part. 4 of the central element 2, that is to say substantially in the direction of flow. This direction also corresponds to the axis along which the centering device 1 is intended to be moved in the medullary canal of the bone. The ogival conformation of the distal part 9 of the central element 2 is also defined to favor the flow of the bonding cement during the introduction of the prosthesis into the femoral barrel.
La figure 3 représente une vue en coupe suivant un des trois plans de symétrie dont dispose le centreur illustré aux figures 1 et 2, à savoir le plan
AA. On remarque notamment la présence d'un alésage borgne 10, dont la forme tronconique de cet exemple de réalisation est apte à coopérer par emboîtement avec l'extrémité distale 12 de la tige fémorale 11, de forme sensiblement complémentaire. Par ailleurs, la solidarisation de ces deux éléments peut être réalisée par tous moyens connus.3 shows a sectional view along one of the three planes of symmetry available to the centralizer illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, namely the plane
AA. We note in particular the presence of a blind bore 10, the frustoconical shape of this embodiment is able to cooperate by interlocking with the distal end 12 of the femoral stem 11, of substantially complementary shape. Furthermore, the joining of these two elements can be achieved by any known means.
La figure 4 illustre quant à elle une tige fémorale 11 de prothèse totale de hanche prête à un cimentée à l'intérieur d'un fût fémoral, c'est-à-dire pourvue à son extrémité distale 12 d'un dispositif de centrage 1 conforme à l'invention. Son implantation nécessite cependant une préparation préalable de la cavité fémorale. L'opération tout à fait classique consiste à creuser de manière relativement précise cette partie de l'os, afin de réaliser un évidement dont la forme et les dimensions correspondent à celles de la partie proximale 13 de la tige 11, et ainsi de garantir un positionnement stable de ladite tige 1 1 dans la cavité fémorale. Pour cela, le chirurgien utilise une série de râpes 30 de tailles croissantes jusqu'à atteindre les dimensions souhaitées. FIG. 4 illustrates a femoral stem 11 of total hip prosthesis ready for cementing inside a femoral barrel, that is to say provided at its distal end 12 with a centering device 1 according to the invention. Its implantation, however, requires prior preparation of the femoral cavity. The entirely conventional operation consists in digging this part of the bone relatively precisely, in order to produce a recess whose shape and dimensions correspond to those of the proximal part 13 of the rod 11, and thus guarantee a stable positioning of said rod 1 1 in the femoral cavity. For this, the surgeon uses a series of rasps 30 of increasing sizes until reaching the desired dimensions.
La figure 5 représente un de ces ancillaires et plus précisément le dernier utilisé, c'est-à-dire celui dont la partie active 3 1 formant râpe correspond le plus précisément à la forme de l'implant définitif. Afin de guider les déplacements à l'intérieur du canal médullaire de l'os, une olive de guidage 33 est montée de manière réversible à l'extrémité 32 de la râpe 30. Figure 5 shows one of these ancillaries and more precisely the last used, that is to say the one whose active part 3 1 forming a rasp most precisely corresponds to the shape of the final implant. In order to guide the movements inside the medullary canal of the bone, a guide olive 33 is mounted reversibly at the end 32 of the rasp 30.
Doté d'un diamètre correspondant à celui dudit canal, cette olive 33 est indifféremment utilisable avec toutes les autres râpes de tailles inférieures.With a diameter corresponding to that of said channel, this olive 33 can be used with all other rasps of smaller sizes.
Comme nous l'avons vu précédemment, l'implantation d'une tige fémorale 1 1 munie de son centreur 1 ne provoque aucun déplacement de l'obturateur 20 associé, préalablement introduit avec un ciment de liaison à l'intérieur du fût fémoral. Aussi, il est particulièrement avantageux de combiner l'utilisation d'un dispositif de centrage 1 conforme à l'invention avec le positionnement précis d'un obturateur 20, ceci afin de générer la formation d'un bouchon de ciment de longueur déterminée. As we have seen previously, the implantation of a femoral rod 1 1 provided with its centering device 1 does not cause any displacement of the associated obturator 20, previously introduced with a bonding cement inside the femoral barrel. Also, it is particularly advantageous to combine the use of a centering device 1 according to the invention with the precise positioning of a shutter 20, this in order to generate the formation of a cement plug of determined length.
Tout comme la dernière râpe 30 utilisée pour la préparation de la cavité fémorale, le dispositif de positionnement 40 comporte une portion de forme sensiblement identique à la partie proximale 13 de la tige fémorale 11 (figure 6) ; ceci afin de pouvoir s'adapter avec précision dans le canal médullaire de l'os comme le fera ultérieurement l'implant lui-même. Seule la longueur de sa partie insérable peut être supérieure à la valeur obtenue en additionnant la longueur correspondante de la tige fémorale 1 1 et la longueur du centreur 1. Cette particularité permet une mise en place de l'obturateur 20, fixé temporairement à l'extrémité dudit dispositif 40, à un niveau inférieur mais déterminé par rapport à la position qu'occupera ultérieurement ledit centreur 1 dans le fût fémoral. Une fois la prothèse implantée, l'obturateur 20 et le dispositif de centrage 1 seront séparés par un espace de hauteur connue, puisque correspondant sensiblement à la différence de longueurs précédemment évoquée. Like the last rasp 30 used for the preparation of the femoral cavity, the positioning device 40 comprises a portion of shape substantially identical to the proximal part 13 of the femoral stem 11 (FIG. 6); this in order to be able to adapt precisely in the medullary canal of the bone as the implant itself will do later. Only the length of its insertable part can be greater than the value obtained by adding the corresponding length of the femoral stem 1 1 and the length of the centering device 1. This feature allows the obturator 20 to be fixed, temporarily fixed to the end of said device 40, at a lower level but determined relative to the position that said centralizer 1 will subsequently occupy in the femoral barrel. Once the prosthesis has been implanted, the obturator 20 and the centering device 1 will be separated by a space of known height, since it corresponds substantially to the difference in lengths mentioned above.
Ainsi qu'on peut le voir sur la figure 6, le dispositif de positionnement 40 est composé d'un embout porte-obturateur 35 sensiblement cylindrique. As can be seen in FIG. 6, the positioning device 40 is composed of a substantially cylindrical shutter-holder tip 35.
Celui-ci est monté, en lieu et place de l'olive de guidage 33, à l'extrémité 32 de la dernière râpe 30 utilisée pour la préparation de la cavité fémorale, c'està-dire celle dont la partie active 3 1 correspond le plus précisément à la forme de l'implant définitif. Bien entendu, la longueur de l'embout porte-obturateur 35 est fixée en fonction de l'intervalle que l'on désire obtenir entre la partie supérieure 21 de l'obturateur 20 et l'extrémité du dispositif de centrage 1.This is mounted, in place of the guide olive 33, at the end 32 of the last rasp 30 used for the preparation of the femoral cavity, that is to say the one whose active part 3 1 corresponds most precisely to the shape of the final implant. Of course, the length of the shutter-carrying end piece 35 is fixed as a function of the interval which it is desired to obtain between the upper part 21 of the shutter 20 and the end of the centering device 1.
Comme l'embout 35 est démontable, on peut prévoir avantageusement un assortiment de tailles croissantes afin de donner au chirurgien le choix de la longueur du bouchon de ciment qui va être généré.As the end piece 35 is removable, an assortment of increasing sizes can advantageously be provided in order to give the surgeon the choice of the length of the cement plug which will be generated.
L'obturateur 20 est fixé de manière amovible à l'extrémité libre 36 de l'embout porte-obturateur 35. Il présente quant à lui une forme extérieure tout à fait classique comportant notamment, dans cet exemple de réalisation, trois lèvres annulaires 22 d'un diamètre supérieur à celui du canal médullaire, mais présentant une certaine souplesse afin de pouvoir s'y adapter après déformation. The shutter 20 is removably attached to the free end 36 of the shutter-holder end piece 35. It has a completely conventional external shape including, in this embodiment, three annular lips 22 d '' a diameter greater than that of the medullary canal, but having a certain flexibility in order to be able to adapt to it after deformation.
La figure 7 illustre un principe d'assemblage permettant de lier à la râpe 30, indifféremment l'embout porte-obturateur 35 ou l'olive de guidage 33. Dans ce mode de réalisation particulier, l'extrémité de chacune de ces pièces est pourvue d'un alésage borgne taraudé, respectivement 41, 37, 34. FIG. 7 illustrates an assembly principle making it possible to link to the grater 30, either the obturator-holder end piece 35 or the guide olive 33. In this particular embodiment, the end of each of these parts is provided of a tapped blind bore, respectively 41, 37, 34.
Chacun des deux derniers 37, 34 est apte à coopérer par vissage avec l'un des deux filetages 43, 44 portés par un axe de liaison 42, le filetage restant coopérant avec l'alésage 41 ménagé à l'extrémité 32 de la râpe 30.Each of the last two 37, 34 is able to cooperate by screwing with one of the two threads 43, 44 carried by a connecting pin 42, the remaining thread cooperating with the bore 41 formed at the end 32 of the rasp 30 .
La fixation de l'obturateur 20 est très différente puisqu'elle consiste à réaliser sensiblement une liaison de type tenon-mortaise. Pour cela, l'extrémité libre 36 de l'embout porte-obturateur 35 est pourvue d'un cylindre 38 formant tenon, qui coopère avec un alésage borgne 23 formant mortaise, ménagé à l'extrémité 21 de l'obturateur 20. Le cylindre 38 présente par ailleurs une fente longitudinale 39 lui permettant de se déformer afin de venir se bloquer légèrement dans l'alésage borgne 23 de forme tronconique. La liaison amovible ainsi réalisée est de nature à permettre le maintien de l'obturateur 20 sur le dispositif de positionnement 40, avant et pendant leur insertion dans le canal médullaire de l'os. Une fois le positionnent achevé, ledit obturateur 20 se retrouve immobilisé dans le canal médullaire du fait des déformations engendrées par son diamètre légèrement supérieur. Le retrait du dispositif de positionnement 40 va par conséquent le laisser en place à la position désirée dans le fût fémoral. The fixing of the shutter 20 is very different since it consists in substantially making a connection of the tenon-mortise type. For this, the free end 36 of the shutter-holder end piece 35 is provided with a cylinder 38 forming a tenon, which cooperates with a blind bore 23 forming a mortise, formed at the end 21 of the shutter 20. The cylinder 38 also has a longitudinal slot 39 allowing it to deform in order to come to slightly block in the blind bore 23 of frustoconical shape. The removable connection thus produced is such as to allow the obturator 20 to be held on the positioning device 40, before and during their insertion into the medullary canal of the bone. Once the positioning is completed, said obturator 20 is immobilized in the medullary canal due to the deformations caused by its slightly larger diameter. The withdrawal of the positioning device 40 will therefore leave it in place at the desired position in the femoral barrel.
I1 est à noter que le dispositif de centrage 1 peut être réalisé en
PMMA, en métal, en polyéthylène ou en tout autre matériau communément utilisé. De la même façon, l'obturateur 20 peut être constitué de gélatine, d'os, de dextrose, d'acides lactique ou glycolique...It should be noted that the centering device 1 can be produced by
PMMA, metal, polyethylene or any other commonly used material. Similarly, the shutter 20 can be made up of gelatin, bone, dextrose, lactic or glycolic acids, etc.
Naturellement, et comme il résulte déjà amplement de ce qui précède, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes particuliers de réalisation qui ont été décrits à titre d'exemples préférés, dont elle englobe toutes les variantes restant dans le cadre de la portée du brevet. Naturally, and as it already clearly follows from the above, the invention is not limited to the particular embodiments which have been described by way of preferred examples, of which it encompasses all the variants remaining within the scope of the scope of the patent.
