Abstract

A hip prosthesis having a base intended to lie against the resectioned neck of the femur, and from which a ball projects upwardly, has a conical hollow rod which is provided with a sloped screw thread which may be coated with a porous material. The rod is screwed into the femur neck and retained in place without adhesive. Additional anchorage is obtained by passing a recall screw through the femur neck from beneath into the hollow rod which is internally threaded. The ball is rotated by means of a key so as to seat it on the base.

Description

SPECIFICATION A hip prosthesis This invention relates to a hip prosthesis.
Two types of hip prostheses are now used;double sealed cup prostheses and intramedullary prostheses. Double seal cup prostheses comprise a metal cup sealed on to the head of the bored femur and a plastic cup sealed on to the cotyloid cavity. This type of prostheses has the drawback that it is difficult to place because the head of the femur must have been previously drilled. Further, there are risks of necrosis of the femur head under the cement, such necrosis leading to bone breakage thereby making new surgery necessary.
Intramedullary prostheses comprise a femoral head intended to be engaged in the medullary canal of the femur after total resection of its head. It is quite obvious that such a prosthesis is not physiologically ideal because it is placed at the sacrifice of the femoral neck and, further, the rod placed in the medullary canal has the drawback of considerably stiffening the femur. Further, installing this type of prosthesis is never easy and risks of femoral facture are always to be feared. Finally, necrosis of the bone caused by the cement during its polymerisation causes unsealings over time.
Hip prostheses have been proposed made up of a plate forming a base and carrying, on its front face, a spherical head intended to replace the femur head and, on its back face, a threaded rod to be fastened in the neck of the femur. The back face of the plate rests against the truncated end of the neck of the femur, and the front face of the plate further exhibits means allowing its rotational movement. This prosthesis, in comparison with the intramedullary prostheses, has the advantage preserving the neck of the femur which avoids any intervention into the medullary canal and, consequently, preserves elasticity for the femur. However, it exhibits the drawback of requiring a relatively long and difficult surgical emplacement.
The object of the invention is to remedy the above drawbacks by facilitating the emplacement of the prosthesis and considerably reducing the time necessary for the surgery.
According to the present invention a hip prosthesis comprises a plate forming a base and carrying, on its front face, a spherical head intended to replace the femur head and, on its back face, a conical threaded rod able to be screwed into the neck of the femur after resection of the femur head so that the back face of the plate rests against the truncated end of the femur neck, the front face of the plate further comprising means to permit seating of said spherical head by rotation using a suitable tool.
Preferably the thread of the rod is sloped slightly so that the use of a sealant in the neck of the femur is not essential.
A further preference is that the spherical head is connected to the base removably, for example, by means of a cylindrical thread and a conical bearing, as described and claimed in the French Certificate of Addition, No.
7613189, in the name of the Applicants. This arrangement makes possible various hip operations without the need of removing the femoral prosthesis.
To assist a still tighter hold of this prosthesis in the neck of the femur without using sealant, the lower or free end of the threaded rod may be provided with a tapped bore able to receive a recall screw, the head of which is intended to rest directly, or by means of an intermediate plate, against the cortex of the femur, opposite the neck.
To eliminate any risk of unscrewing of the prosthesis, the head of the recall screw may rest against the cortex of the femur by means of an intermediate plate provided with a hole, naking possible its fastening by a screw to the femur. The head of the threaded recall screw itself is externally threaded and goes through a tapped hole in the plate and the threading pitch of this hole and, consequently, that of the head of the recall screw is less than that of the head of this screw. This arrangement results in a differential effect which results in a strong pull exerted on the rod of the prosthesis as the head of the recall screw enters the tapped hole in the plate, and tends to pull the base strongly against the truncated end of the neck of the femur. This differential effect further has the result of practically eliminating any risk of the prosthesis coming unscrewed.
To improve still more the hold of the threaded rod in the neck of the femur, its thread is advantageously coated, as is known, with aluminium oxide, which gives it a porous surface state and. consequently, a better hold in the neck of the femur.
One embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic drawing which is a part sectional side elevation of a hip prosthesis.
The illustrated prosthesis is made up of a plate 2 forming the base. On its front face, the plate 2 carries a spherical head 3 which is preferably removably fastened to the plate 2 as described in French Certificate of Addition No. 76131 89 in the name of the Applicants, i.e., by a cylindrical thread 4 and a conical bearing 5. In this case, a rod 3a of the head 3 has at its end located on the side of spherical head 3, flat parts 6 permitting it to be grasped by a flat key for rotation thereof.
On its back face, the plate 2 carries a threaded rod 7 with a conical outside shape and having an outside conical thread 8 with a slight slope.
The prosthesis is intended to be fastened to the femur of a patient after resection of the head 9 of the femur, which makes it possible to preserve practically the whole neck 11 of the femur. Placement of the prosthesis is therefore made by engagement of threaded conical rod 7 in a bore made in the neck of the femur 11 after resection of the head 9 to the point that the back face of plate 2 is supported against the truncated end of the neck of the femur 11.
For this purpose, the plate 2 comprises means making possible its driving-in by rotation, such as holes 12 making possible the engagement of a key with lugs, or flat parts 13 making possible the use of a flat key.
The conical shape of rod 7 and of the thread 8 makes possible a much more rapid placement than if the rod and thread were cylindrical. Actually, the conical shape makes it possible to almost totally introduce the rod 7 without screwing, the screwing having to be performed only at the end of the introduction.
The slight slope of the thread 8 has the effect of making the screwing irreversible and, consequently, of considerably reducing the risks of unscrewing of the prosthesis, and making the use of sealant almost totally unnecessary.
However, to improve the hold of the rod 7 in the neck of femur 11, the thread 8 is advantageously coated with aluminium oxide which provides it with a porous surface and reinforces its hold in the neck of the femur 11.
Again, according to another advantageous characteristic of the invention to ensure even better that unscrewing of the rod 7 will not occur, the free or narrow end of the rod 7 is provided with a tapped bore 14 in which can be engaged a recall screw 15, whose head rests against the cortex of the femur opposite the femur head 9.
According to an improved embodiment of the device, there is associated with a recall screw 15 a curved plate 16 shaped to be applied in a complementary manner against the femur cortex. The plate 16 has a smooth bore 17 preferably drilled for passage of a screw making possible its fastening to the femur. Such plate may also have a tapped hole 18 intended to receive the externally threaded head 1 5a of the recall screw 15, the thread of the head 1 5a and, consequently, of the tapped hole 18 having a pitch less than that of the recall screw 15, from which results a differential effect assuring a strong pull in the direction of arrow 19 on the rod 7 of the prostheSis which has the effect of eliminating any risk of unscrewing of the prosthesis.
As can be seen, the prosthesis of the invention does not require passage into the medullary canal of the femur which thereby preserves all of its flexibility. As also can be seen from the above description, the prosthesis of the invention makes possible the use of the removable spherical head, which avoids having to remove the body of the prosthesis and particularly its rod 7 from the necl of femur 11 during an operation at the hip.
