Description
或る患者が、以下の要領で患者の回旋腱板の軟組織損傷を修復するために関節鏡手術の準備ができている。この患者は、標準的な手術台の上で横向きの状態或いは半分座った状態(ビーチチェア)である。外科手術に備えて皮膚を処理して、烏口突起を完全に前に露出させ、肩甲骨全体を後に露出させる。標準的な後上腕関節窩の関節鏡手術を実施する。18ゲージ脊椎針を前から烏口突起に挿入し、上腕関節に到達させる。この関節を生理食塩水で膨張させてから、膨張シリンジを引き抜いて、流体が自然に流出するのを確認する。全ての門脈切除を行う前に、門脈からの出血を抑えるために、皮膚及び皮下組織をエピネフリン添加1%リドカインで浸潤する。関節鏡カニューレを脊椎針と同じ方向にして関節内に挿入して流体の流出を確認する。外科医の判断で、副門脈に挿入しても良い。先ず、診断のための関節鏡検査で裂傷の厚み及び大きさを確認する。横門脈を介して回旋腱板の裂傷の縁を、関節鏡シェーバーで正常な組織まで切除する。5.5mmのバーで皮質面を粗くして骨床を大粗面にして、断続的な出血を起こさせ、回旋腱板が骨に生物学的に付着し易くする。ドリルを縫合糸パンチカニューレ内に挿入して、これを用いて大粗面上にアンカー挿入点を予備穿孔する。予備穿孔された孔の大きさは、通常は直径が2.4mm〜2.7mmの範囲であり、その深さは約15mmである。ただし、選択するアンカーの寸法及び穿孔する骨の性質によって異なる。本発明の縫合糸アンカー10を、カニューレを介してドリルホール内の大粗面上に挿入する。挿入器に加える圧力を維持して、縫合糸アンカーがドリルホール内の所定の位置に維持されるようにして、係合部材150を、2ポンド〜10ポンド(0.9072kg〜4.536kg)の力で縫合糸180を引っ張って配置する。次に挿入器具を2ポンド〜10ポンド(0.9072kg〜4.536kg)の力で引いて、縫合糸アンカーが挿入器の軸から外れるようにする。縫合糸を2ポンド〜10ポンド(0.9072kg〜4.536kg)の力で引いてアンカーの固定を確認する。係合部材が穿孔された孔の周囲の骨に配置され、アンカーが所定の位置に固定されたら、外科医は、縫合糸180の両側を約5mm離して棘上筋腱に通し、それぞれのアンカー10の外科処置が終了する。把持装置を用いて、横門脈を介して大粗面上で回旋腱板を横方向に引いて、縫合糸を結ぶ準備をする。把持装置で横方向の張力を維持したまま、結節プッシャーを用いて適当な結節を腱に対して押し下げる。縫合糸180の両端を縫合糸カッターで切断して処置を完了する。縫合糸が張っているため、軟組織が骨の表面に維持される。この張力は、係合部材の配置によりボアホール内の所定の位置に固定された縫合糸アンカー10によって維持される。
第2の患者が、例1に記載した外科手術と同様の外科手術を受ける。手術中に、穿孔された止まり孔に縫合糸アンカー10を配置して係合させた後、配置したアンカー10を取り外す必要がある。医師は、以下の要領でアンカー10を取り外す。挿入装置200を、その軸が整合するように縫合糸アンカー10の基端部に近接させる。挿入装置200の先端部を開口31の縫合糸アンカー10の基端部に押圧して、挿入装置200をアンカーに取り付ける。挿入装置200を続けて押して、縫合糸アンカー10が穿孔された孔の中に更に深く進入させ、これにより係合部材150が、外側部材20のスロット50内及び縫合糸アンカー10のアクチュエータ部材70のキャビティ90内に移動して受容されるようにする。次に、カニューレを介して挿入装置/アンカー組立体を引き抜いて、縫合糸アンカー10をドリルホールから除去する。
