Description

The present invention relates to an osteosynthesis pin device used for fracture treatment of femur, tibia, humerus, forearm bone, hand bone, and other various bones.

  Conventionally, for example, as an osteoclast pin for fracture treatment of a femur, an osteoclast pin with a male screw formed at the distal end portion, and in use, two or three of the male screwed bone pin are screwed into the fracture part, Each of the male screw portions keeps each bone pin in a state where it is prevented from coming off, or a hook shaft having one elastic hook at the tip is movably inserted into the hollow shaft, and the hook shaft is moved forward and backward to move the hook. A joint pin with a hook that advances and retracts outward from the tip hole of the hollow shaft. In use, a plurality of osteoclast pin insertion holes are previously drilled in the fractured portion, and the above-mentioned plurality of hooked osteoclast pins are inserted into this hole. It is known that after each insertion, the hook shaft is advanced to project the hook outwardly of the hollow shaft, and each osteoclast pin is held non-rotatable by the projecting hook.

  However, since all of the conventional osteoclastic pins as described above are used to fix the fractured part by inserting a plurality of pieces into the fractured part, the bone around the inserted part of the multiple osteoclastic pin is weakened. There was a serious drawback of causing secondary fractures.

  In addition, since a plurality of osteoclast pins are inserted in the operation, not only the invasion of the affected part is increased, but also the operation takes a long time and the patient burden of the operation cost increases.

  The present invention effectively treats fractures of the femur, tibia, and the like with a single osteoclast pin, thereby preventing secondary fractures, further reducing the invasion of the affected area by surgery to a small range, and operating time. And to reduce costs.
