Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 伸長可能な骨接合用ケージ 本発明は伸長可能な骨接合用ケージに関する。 本発明の技術分野は、移植可能な骨のインプラント、別称人工補装具と、そし てこれらを使用するための外科技術との分野である。 本発明の主な適用は、例えば対応する接合部の破損の後、連続する2本の椎骨 間の所定の距離を維持するために、そして2つの椎骨を連結することによって脊 柱の安定性を復元するために、連続する2本の椎骨の対向面の間に後方から滑入 されるかまたは挿入されるように設計されているインプラントを供することであ る。 しばらくして2本の椎骨を融着させる移植片か、または、直ちにこれらの椎骨 を連結させ、しばらく後にやはり椎骨間の融着を可能にさせる人工補装具かを移 植することによって、「正常な」腰部脊柱の前湾を復元させるための技術は、現 在いくつか知られている。 上述の第2の技術においては、「ケージ」としても知られているインプラント が主として用いられており、これらのケージのあるものは中空で、剛性でありそ して一個構成であって、移植骨片を受け入れるための内側/外側相互連絡スロッ トを有し、この移植骨片は上記スロットを介して、両側の隣接している椎骨と融 合する。この分野では、1996年3月21日に『円錐形の椎骨間融着ケージ』 として公示された特許出願WO96/08205号と、『脊柱のための体間イン プラント』として1995年2月8日に公示された特許出願EP637 440 号とを参照することができる。しかしながら、これらのタイプのケージの外形寸 法は所定のものであり一定であるのに、対になっている各椎骨間の距離はそれぞ れ一定ではない。ある角位置を付与されている対向椎骨の各面の傾斜のために、 剛性のケージを後方から使用することができず、前方から挿入することしかでき ない。 そのため、剛性の本体に2本のほぼ平行な分枝を連結した他のタイプのケージ が開発され、この種のケージでは、ウォームスクリューシステムを回転させ、分 枝の遠端に近い当初の位置から両分枝を連結する本体に向かってウェッジを上記 スクリュー上で移動させてネジばめにし、こうして2つの分枝が斜角をなして角 距離を隔てるようにする。斯様にして、当初は平坦な形状なケージを両椎骨間に 挿入することが可能になり、そして次にウェッジの駆動軸を回転させることによ って、後方のアクセスよりこれら分枝間の所望の角度を調整したり、または設定 したりすることができる。 このようなケージまたはインプラントは例えば、『椎骨間ケージ』と題された 1995年8月2日公示の欧州特許出願EP664 994号、または『椎骨イ ンプラント』と題された1995年11月17日公示の特許出願EP2 719 763号に記載されている。 しかし、中空で剛性なケージよりも機械的であり、そのためより複雑でもある このような装置では、融着移植片のための内部空間がより狭く、そして円形対称 ではないその平坦な形状のために、椎骨間の所定の方位角を確保するにはより適 しているとはいえ、椎骨を受け入れるために同じ方形断面を有する通路を必要と し、そのためその実施が複雑になる。 したがって、提起された問題は、まず第1に移植を容易にするためと、そして 第2により大きな内部空間を得るために、できるだけ機械的構成要素を少なくし た上で、ケージが設置された後に外科的挿入箇所に隣接しそして椎骨の後面に対 応するケージの遠端の直径を、従来の剛性ケージの形状のままで、その遠端に対 する所定の割合にまで増大できるようにすることである。 提起された問題に対する回答の1つは、下記分枝および台座が中空のケージを なすように、複数の分枝を有している伸長可能な骨接合用インプラントであって 、1つのオリフィスを穿たれている台座にそれぞれ一方の端末で連結されている 上記ケージは、「休止」位置において、以下のような母線を備えた円柱または準 円柱の全体外形を有し、すなわち、上記母線は、直線であるその対称軸を中心と して回転することによって上記外形を生成するか、あるいは大きな半径の凸状の 円弧のような湾曲した中間部分を有し、かつその周囲を上記母線が走っている準 線を有する対称軸を中心として回転することによって上記外形を生成し、このよ うにして、準円形である円柱断面をも画定し、その結果、直円柱である円柱か、 さもなければこの場合、「卵形体」もしくは「楕円形体」と呼ばれている円柱を なし、これ以降においては円柱または準円柱と呼ばれ、また、分枝の遠端に近い ケージの内部空間の少なくとも1部は、その広い方の底が上記台座の方にある準 回転円錐台体の形態をなしており、上記インプラントは少なくとも3つの分枝と そして少なくとも1つのスペーサとを有し、このスペーサは、「休止」位置にお ける上記内部空間の円錐台の広い方の底の寸法に合う寸法であって、恐らくは上 記オリフィスを通過するのに適している寸法を有している。 「活動」位置においては、上記スペーサは複数の上記ブランチを離して斜角を なすようにし、上記内部空間は円柱に近づき、そしてケージの外形はほぼ円錐台 に近似し、そしてこのスペーサがいったん所望の位置に収まれば、上記分枝、ス ペーサ、およびオリフィスによって画定された空間内には内部の空隙は残らなく なる。 「休止」および「活動」の位置の定義ははそれぞれ、図1、3A、4A、5Λ 、9、10および11と、そして図2、3B、3C、4Bおよび5Bとに実例と して示されている。「休止」位置とは、インプラントが設置される前のインプラ ントの位置と、そして設置途中、すなわちスペーサがケージの内部でその分枝の 間にまだ置かれていず、したがってケージは一定の断面の柱状の外側体積を有し ている時のインプラントの位置とを指す。「活動」位置はインプラントの最終位 置であって、つまり、インプラントは2つの椎骨の間にあり、その複数の分枝は スペーサがその最終調整位置に配置されることによって離されて斜角をなし、そ のためケージの全体外形はほぼ円錐台形になって、台座から朝顔形に上に開いて おり、この台座は、2つの椎骨の間の最も奥深くにある遠端にむかって挿入する その外科的挿入点の側にあるインプラントの端末の位置に対応している。 骨の中により良く定着するためと、そして後にケージが動かないようにするた めに、上記分枝の外面は、刻みを付けたり、溝を付けたり、または突出している 山を有するネジ山外面などを用いてネジ切りしたりすることが好ましい。 また、椎骨の面との接触面積を同時に増大させながら、移植の後における回転 の危険を減少させるために、そしてケージの移動の危険を少なくするために、少 なくともインプラントの台座とそして好ましくは分枝の側面も、オプションとし て平行な少なくとも2つの平坦部を有し、各平坦部は連続する2つの分枝の間で インプラントの軸を中心としてそれぞれ対称に配置される。オプションとしてケ ージの一般的に卯形の形状に助けられて、これらの平坦部はインプラントの回転 の危険を減少させることによって、拡張後により良好な定着を可能にする。更に 、休止位置におけるケージの基本的な円筒形の母線が直線であった場合に比べて 、こうした卵形は、拡張後に円錐形でかつ湾曲していない外形に容易に戻ること を可能にし、したがって椎骨の本体へのスラストをより良く配分し、移植骨の定 着を助ける。 特に台座に大きなオリフィスがある場合、その後端においてケージを強化し、 ケージが設置されて拡張された後に、ケージ内への骨材の挿入を容易にするため に、上記台座のオリフィスはケージの内部空間を閉鎖するためのプラグを収納す るようになっている。1例として、プラグは上記オリフィスにねじ込むこともで き、この場合オリフィスもネジ明りされている。こうした状況では、このプラグ は骨材が外れたり、その骨材が作られている材料に左右されたりすることを防ぎ 、またケージの強化にも役立つことができる。 様々な特定の実施例が添付の図面に示されている。その結果、特に上に定義さ れた主な応用のために、提起の問題を解決する新しい伸長可能な骨接合用インプ ラントが開示されている。 少なくとも4つの分枝が存在し、そして4つから8つまでの分枝があり得るこ とによって、両方向性の拡張が可能になり、したがって椎骨の対向する2つの面 の間をしっかりと詰めることができ、そして上記拡張を維持しているスペーサと 端末台座のオリフィスまたはプラグとの間に連結部品または連結ロッドが存在し ないので、大量の骨材を受け入れられる大きな内部空間が確保され、したがって 、特に保持しようとする複数椎骨間において、融着による固着および結合を改善 する。上記台座にはケージの後端に大きなオリフィスがあるので、上述の充填作 業はずっと容易になる。 更に、ケージの底面と上面とにおいて分枝どうしの間に位置しているスロット を通して、上記オリフィスは、椎骨の面を削ることを可能にする。 そのうえ、上に定義された拡張システムには、2つの部品、すなわちスペーサ およびケージ(下記のように、オプションとしてその端末に配置される1つのプ ラグと、恐らくは1つの中間スペーサも含む)しか含まれていないが、上記スペ ーサと上記プラグとの位置決めをするためのロッドやシャフトはいずれも後に取 り除かれるので、連結部材が設置後には残されることはない。 本発明はこのようにして、既に述べた種類の既存のインプラントまたはケージ に比して数多くの利点があり、またその他の利点も挙げることができるが、本発 明の新奇性と有用性を示すには上述の利点で充分であろう。 下記の説明と図面においては、4つの分枝を有する本発明による2つの実施例 が記載されているが、これらには限定的な性格は全くなく、本発明の範囲内にお いて、例えば、3つの分枝を有する実施例や4つを超える分枝を有する実施例の ような他の実施例も可能である。 図1は、その異なる幾つかの部品が共通の据付け軸XX’に心合せされている 、「休止」位置にあるインプラントの1実施例の透視図である。 図2は、上記3つの部品が組み込まれている、その「活動」位置にある図1の インプラントの透視図である。 図3A、4Aおよび5Aはそれぞれ、「休止」位置にある本発明のインプラン トのもう1つの実施例を示すケージの横断面図と、そしてこのケージの2つの軸 方向端面図、すなわち一方はその前面、他方はその後面を示す。 図3B、4Bおよび5Bは、図3A、4Aおよび5Aに示されているものと同 じケージの同様な図面であるが、その補助的構成要素が組み込まれており、「活 動」位置になっている。 図3Cは、「活動」位置にある図3、4および5に示されている実施例のイン プラントの軸に垂直な側面図である。 図6、7および8は、本発明によるインプラントのケージの実施例の詳細を示 す図である。 図9、10および11はそれぞれ、図1および2に透視図で示されているイン プラントの実施例における断片的側面図と、そして上記実施例の前面および後面 を示す2つの軸方向の図である。 図12、13および14はそれぞれ、図1、2、9および11の実施例のため のネジなし端末スペーサと、図3、4および5の実施例のためのネジ付きの端末 スペーサおよび/または中間スペーサと、そして本発明のいずれの実施例にも用 いられる閉鎖プラグとの表面図および断面図である。 実施態様がどのようであろうとも、伸長可能の骨接合用インプラントには従来 のやり方で、オリフィス8がせん孔されている台座7に、それぞれが一方の端末 において連結されている複数の分枝5が含まれている。本発明の基本的特徴によ ると、上記分枝5および台座7は中空のケージ1を構成し、図1、3Aおよび5 Aと、図9、10および11との実施例に示されているように、その全体外形は 「休止」位置において円柱または準円柱であって、上記円柱の準線でもあるその 横断面は円形または準円形であり、そして上記準線に沿っているその母線であっ て、その対称軸XX’を中心にして回転することによって円柱または準円柱を生 成する母線は、直線であるかまたは大きな半径を有する凸状の円弧である。この ようにして図3Aに実線201で示されているような円対称形の直円柱か、ある いは、本明細書では「楕円形体」もしくは「卵形体」と呼ばれている外形、すな わち中程がいくらか膨れている外形をなしている、図3Aに鎖線202で示され ているような準円柱が得られる。分枝5の遠端に近いケージ1の内部空間9の少 なくとも1部は、その広い方の底が上記台座7の側にある準円形対称の円錐台の 形態をなしており、そのインプラントは少なくとも4つの分枝5とそして少なく とも1つのスペーサ2とを有し、このスペーサは、上記オリフィス8を通過しそ して円錐台の広い方の底を経て上記内部空間9に収められるようになっている。 図2、3B、4B、5Bおよび3C、すなわち「活動」位置においては、上記 端末スペーサ2は上記分枝5を押し広げ、上記内部空間9はその時円柱に近くな るが、一方、ケージ1の外形はほぼ円錐台に近似するようになる。例えば、図3 Bにおける実線201は、「休止」位置における通常の直円柱から変化したいく らか凹状の形状を示しているが、一方、鎖線202は、図3Aに示されているよ うに当初は卵形であった円柱から変化してより直線的な形状を示している。この スペーサがいったん所望の位置に収まれば、インプラントおよびスペーサを配置 するために用いられた内部の空隙は、上記分枝5、スペーサ2、およびオリフィ ス8によって画定された空間内に全く残っていない。 実施態様がどのようであろうとも、図7に詳細に示されているように、上記分 枝5の外面の少なくとも1部はネジ切りされて突出している山のあるネジ山外面 11を有する。特に1例として挙げれば、約20mm〜25mmの長さLを有す るケージでは、分枝5のネジ付き部分の長さは13mm〜16mm、ピッチp は1.5mm〜2mmの範囲にすることができ、ケージの円柱の外径Dは9mm 〜16mm、また連続する各ネジ山間のネジ山角度βが60度の場合、ネジ山の 山111の高さはほぼ0.7mm〜0.9mm、そしてネジ山の内側面112は約 0.4mmの半径を有する。こうした外面の丸い形状は応力の集中を最小にし、 大きな力や衝撃に耐えることを可能にする。 突出している山を有するこのような外側ネジ山は、上記インプラントを挿入す る際にそのインプラントのオリフィス8に合ったツールで事前に穿孔された孔に ねじ込まれるので衝撃がなく、そのため傷つけられることもないので、設置を容 易にするし、またいったん取り付けられてしまえば、ネジ山は骨の中に定着され 、その後は動くことはない。 台座7には少なくとも2つの平坦部6が含まれ、これらの平坦部は椎骨の外形 とより緊密に適合するように、互いに平衡であるか、または互いに対していくら か傾斜しており、図1、2、9、10そして11の実施例に示されているように 、それぞれは連続する2つの分枝5の間に配置されている。 代替として、図3、4および5の実施例に示されているように、台座7は正方 形または準正方形の断面を形成する4つの平坦部を有することも可能である。図 3〜5の実施例に示されているように、台座の他に、分枝5自体も、特にインプ ラントの断面が準円形である場合、少なくとも台座の平坦部の延長線上にそれぞ れの平坦部を有することも可能であり、あるいは代替として、図1、2および9 〜10の実施例のように、全く平坦部を有しない場合もある。このような平坦部 は、上述のように、いくらか卵形または楕円形である縦長のインプラント断面形 に代えることもできるし、あるいは少なくともこのような断面形に合わせること ができる。 台座7のオリフィス8は、図6に1例として示されているようなネジ山外面1 5にしたがって、またその山もその谷も共に丸みを帯びているネジ山のピッチに したがって、ネジ切りされることも可能であり、そして1例として上述された寸 法に対して、開口部8は7mm〜10mmの内径と、1mm〜1.5mmのピ ッチ’、約0.6mmのネジ山の深さ、そして約30°のネジ山の傾斜間のネ ジ山角γとを有する。 次に、内部空間9を閉じるためのプラグ3が上記オリフィス8にねじ込まれる 。これは、インプラント設置ロッドのための定着点として用いるためになされる か、あるいは、インプラントが配置されそして各分枝が内部空間9を閉じるため の端末スペーサ2によって広げられた後では、第1にケージを強化しそして第2 にケージ内に差し込まれた骨材が上記後端から外に出ないようにするためになさ れる。 このようなプラグ3は図14Aでは正面図で、図14Bでは側面図で示されて おり、図6に示されている種類のネジ山152と、正方形、6角形などの多角形 の中央オリフィス17とを有するものであるか、あるいは、このオリフィスにプ ラグをねじ込んだり外したりする目的に適しているロッドの端末の固定に適宜な 何らかの手段と代えることもできる。 更に、インプラントが設置されている最中によりしっかりとインプラントの位 置を固定させためと、そしてインプラントを動かさずに補助的な取付け具を容易 に取り外せるようにするために、ケージ1、スペーサおよび/またはプラグ3の 操作を可能にするロッドの周囲に「補助的な」取付け具の一部を固定するための スタッドまたは溝を、インプラントの後面と台座7のオリフィス8の近辺に作る ことが可能である。 4つの分枝5と共に示されている実施例では、例えば図9の矢印VIIIの方角か ら見た図8に示されているような分枝間空間を形成する4つのスロット10を、 上記ケージは有している。このようなスロットは、先ず第1に隣接する椎骨間デ ィスクと共に内部空間9内に収められている移植骨の融合を改善させるためと、 そして第2にはインプラントの設置の間、分枝5のより良い変形を可能にするた めに、役立つが、それは、この特定部分における分枝の断面は、その端末におけ る断面よりも小さいからである。更に、このようなスロットは長円形であっても よく、分枝5の遠端に近くなるにしたがってその端末は、図8に示されているよ うに、その対向端末より狭くなっており、そして上記分枝5の隣接する1対の遠 端間のスリット101となる。このような形状は、少なくとも主スロット10に 関しては、ケージが一旦拡張されると、平行な縁を有するスロットを形成するこ とを可能にする。そのうえ、図3Aに示されているような一定の幅を有する当初 のスロットの代わりにこのような外形を選択すると、スペーサ2とケージの分枝 5の遠端との間の支持面の面積を増大させることが可能になり、したがってより 大きな強度を得ることができる。 図1、2、9、10および11の実施例においては、ケージ1の内部空間9を 画定する分枝5の内側面は滑らかであり、したがって上記内部空間は、図12に 示されているように上記スペーサ22を収納するのに適宜であり、また図1に示 されているように、その活動位置におけるケージの内部空間9の直径よりも大き い直径を有するショルダ13によって、上記スペーサ22を保持するのに適宜な 軸方向のハウジング12をその遠端に有している。 上記スペーサ22はロッドを収納するのに適宜なネジ付きの軸方向のボア14 を有し、このロッドの少なくとも端末はやはりネジ付きであるが、単に軸方向に 押して平行移動させることによってこのスペーサを取る付ける目的にも適してお り、後に上記設置ロッドを取り外すことも可能である。 図1および2において、隣接する椎骨からの圧力による大きな応力を受け、複 数の分枝がスペーサ2の周囲で滑動することによって互いに向かって移動する効 果を生じることがあって、そのためケージ1の本体が分枝5の遠端に近いその前 端において変形する危険があるのを避けるために、インプラントの軸XX’に対 して対称に配置されている、少なくとも2つのスプライン18または他の手段を スペーサに取り付けることができる。このようなスペーサは、インプラントが分 枝の端末から挿入されることによって設置される前に、ケージ1の内部に配置さ れているか、あるいは、スプラインの幅が隣接する2つの分枝5の遠端におけ る相互間の距離および間隔よりも大きくはなく、台座を通してスペーサを挿入す る必要がある場合には、このスペーサ2を挿入するとき、台座7は、上記2つの スプライン18を滑り込ませることも可能な少なくとも2つの溝19を有する。 本装置には、分枝が拡張された後に変形しないように、例えば、分枝の端末に おいて溝に嵌め込まれておりそして分枝により変形される外側リングのような追 加システムを加えることもできる。 図3、4および5に示されている実施例では、ケージ1の内部空間9を画定す る分枝5の内側面は、例えば図6に示されているように、台座7のオリフィス8 のピッチに等しいピッチを有するネジを付けられており、上記スペーサ21も、 図13Aおよび13Bに示されているように、着脱自在になるようにネジ切りさ れている。 内側ネジ山を有するこの実施例では、上記ケージ1にはまた、端末スペーサ21 のようにネジ切りされている少なくとももう一つの中間スペーサが含まれてお り、そしてこのスペーサは、先ず2つのスペーサ間に画定されている空間に挿入 された骨材を圧縮し、そして次にケージの中央部を強化するために、上記端末ス
