Description

【0001】
(技術分野)
本発明は、請求項1の前文に記載の靭帯移植片配置をリアルタイムでコンピューター処理により自然位(in situ)でプランニングし、ガイダンスする装置に係るものであり、そして請求項8の前文に記載の靭帯移植片配置をリアルタイムでコンピューター処理により自然位(in situ)でプランニングし、ガイダンスする方法に係るものである。
【0002】
(背景技術)
前方十字形靭帯(AGL)の断裂は極く普通にスポーツで生じる障害である。内視鏡を最小限侵入させて近接させ、自生の移植片で再構成するのがAGLの修復の標準となっている。これの利点は手術の外傷が最も小さいということである。
【0003】
適正なAGL配置について知られている現状では、ACL靭帯の約40%が不適当に配置されているということであり、これは不幸なことである。このことは処置の質に深刻な問題をもたらし、適正に行われなければ、結局は膝全体の修復を必要とすることになる膝構造の時期尚早な変質を招来する。
【0004】
これらの不適正な配置は、限られた局部的な内視鏡観察に対して部分的に原因となり得て、普通の術後のX線写真で見れるように、外科医に靭帯位置の全体観察をさせない。内視鏡で視認される標識点がこういうことで限られてくるということから経験のある外科医は、手術中位置を確認できる量的手法として蛍光透視の利用を提唱している。
【0005】
適正靭帯配置には次のような多くのファクターがある。
a)解剖学的標識点に対する適正なドリル孔位置;
b)衝突の回避;
c)靭帯伸張が10%を越えないことの保証(10%伸張を超えるときコラーゲン繊維が破断する);
d)膝の安定性の回復のための適正な移植片の張力と位置;そして
e)良質な骨への移植片の適正な固定
【0006】
ACL修復の場合、移植片接着を大腿部のどの点にするかを決める方法はEP 0 603089 CINQUINに開示されている。この既知の方法は、脛骨の移植片取付け点に対して大腿部の移植片取付け点を決めることについて、膝の屈伸中それら2つの点の間の距離が変わらないように決めている。この既知の方法では、基準子とポインターとを使用し、両方ともエネルギーを発する指標を有し、自然位の3次元座標系内での指標の位置を3次元位置測定装置により、例えばオプティカル・カスタム・ポジション測定装置(OPTOTRAK、ノーサン・ディジタル、ウオータール、オン)により、求める。この位置測定装置は自然位の3次元座標系に対する指標の位置を測定する。それを使ってポインターの先端の位置もコンピューターにより求める。
【0007】
この方法は次の段階を含んでいる。
1)脛骨に第一の基準子を取付ける。
2)事前に決定した点T1にポインターの先端を当て、そして第一の基準子に対するポインターの位置を測定する。
3)不変の点が期待される位置の近くで、大腿骨の滑車(trochlea)において幾つかの点Piにポインターの先端を配置する。
4)点Piのそれぞれと点T1との距離を計算する。
5)脛骨に対して大腿骨を変位させ、点Piのそれぞれと点T1との距離の変動を計算する。
6)最も不変の距離を示しているP1を点Piの中から選択する。
【0008】
この方法は膝の動きを測って、或る伸張基準を守って靭帯の「機能的な」配置を求める。
この既知の方法の欠点は、関節の全解剖学的構造に対して移植片の位置を全体的に見るといったような解剖学的配置状態を確認できないことである。
この点について本発明は救済手段を提供しようとするものである。
【0009】
本発明の目的は、多様の移植片の態様、外科的思考そして外科技術に対して解剖構造的な、そして(構造的でない)機能的な、両方の基準を支持できる装置を提供することである。
【0010】
(発明の開示)
この問題を解決する本発明の装置は請求項1に記載の特徴を有する靭帯移植片の配置をリアルタイムでコンピューター処理により自然位でプランニングし、ガイダンスする装置であり、本発明の方法は請求項8に記載の特徴を有する靭帯移植片の配置をリアルタイムでコンピューター処理により自然位でプランニングし、ガイダンスする方法である。
【0011】
本発明の付随的な有利な実施例の特徴は従属請求項に記載されている。
本発明の装置の利点は、非常に異なる外科技術に対しても、前方十字形の靭帯挿入を許す融通性を持っているということである。
【0012】
本発明の装置は、
A)それぞれが少なくとも3つの指標を有する2つの剛性の基準子と、大腿骨と脛骨とに1つずつ基準子を取付けるネジもしくはピン;
B)少なくとも3つの指標を有するポインター;
C)内視鏡;
D)コンピューター;
E)指標の位置を求めるためコンピューターに接続された位置計測器;
F)手術前もしくは手術中使用されるX線源;
G)医療像データを集めるX線レシーバー(この医療データは数字フォーマットの形で直接コンピューターへ転送されるか、もしくはX線撮影フィルムを走査してコンピューターに入力する);そして
H)コンピューターへ接続され、そして少なくとも3つの指標を有する超音波装置
を備えている。
【0013】
使用される位置計測器によって異なるが、前記指標はエネルギーを放出し、エネルギーを受けもしくは反射する手段であって、例えばエネルギー放出手段としては、
−光源;
−発光デバイス(発光ダイオード);
−赤外線放出ダイオード(IRED);
−音響トランスミッター;もしくは
−磁界を発生するためのコイル、
または、エネルギーを受ける手段としては、
−ホトダイオード;
−マイクロホーン:もしくは
−ホール効果素子
等を設置してもよい。
【0014】
さらに、本発明の装置は少なくとも3つの指標を有するドリル装置を備えていてもよい。このドリル装置に取付けた指標により、ドリル装置の自然位での位置、特にドリル先端の位置を求めることができる。このようなドリル先端は、コンピューターであらかじめ計画した骨に位置決めされてもよい。ドリルがあけた孔の進路はコンピューターで制御されてもよく、コンピューターであらかじめ計画した孔に従ってドリル装置を案内する。これらの孔の位置の計画は医療像を使って行ってもよい。
【0015】
本発明の装置の好ましい実施例では、ポインターと内視鏡とは1つになった、コンピューターに組み込まれた内視鏡装置として形成されている。
超音波装置は、リアルタイム信号処理を可能とするような、1つの軸に沿って超音波ビームを放射し、そして受けるAモードの超音波装置である。
【0016】
特定のソフトウエアにより、コンピューターはポインターによりあらかじめ求めた靭帯の取付け点と取付け点との間の接続を表している3次元表示を呈示する。さらに、この靭帯取付点を使用して、コンピューターは膝の屈伸中、靭帯を表示する。
【0017】
本発明の方法は以下の段階から成る。
A)医療像として1つの大腿骨と脛骨の膝部分の少なくともX線写真をつくり;
B)その医療像をコンピューターに転送し;
C)ポインターを使って、自然位での3次元座標系内の脛骨と大腿骨の表面の点をそれぞれ測定し;
D)超音波装置を使って、自然位での3次元座標系内の脛骨と大腿骨の表面の点をそれぞれ測定し;そして
E)前記A、CそしてDで得たデータにより靭帯移植片の配置を解剖構造的に、そして(構造的でない)機能的に決める。
【0018】
脛骨と大腿骨の表面で手術中測定された点を使って患者の手術中の位置とX線写真のデータとの間の数学的関係を確立してもよい。
X線写真を手術前もしくは手術中につくり、そして靭帯をどこに置くかを決める助けとして使ってもよい。
【0019】
さらに、本発明の方法はコンピューターにより、拡大像を求める段階を含んでもよい。
好ましくはX線写真はテンプレートとして準備される。そのテンプレートを操作することにより、コンピューターで表示された医療像上の解剖学的標識点に対して、所望の靭帯移植片の配置を直接計画できる。
本発明の方法は脛骨に、大腿骨にそれぞれ起点指標を植え込む段階を含んでもよい。
【0020】
本発明を好ましい実施例を示す図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
図1は本発明の装置の好ましい実施例を示す。
図1に示す本発明の装置は、
−手術前もしくは手術中に使用してもよいX線源1;
−医療像データを集めるためのX線レシーバー2;
−コンピューター3(このコンピューター3へ数字フォーマットとして直接に、またはX線撮影フィルムを走査して取込むかのどちらかで医療像データを転送する);
−それぞれが4つの指標を有する2つの剛性の基準子4,5と、大腿骨8と脛骨9とに基準子4,5を取付けるネジ7もしくはピン;
−12の指標6を有するポインター10;
−ディスプレイ12を有する内視鏡11;
−コンピューター3へ接続され、そして4つの指標6を有するAモード超音波装置13;
−指標6の位置を求めるためにコンピューター3に接続された位置計測器14;そして
−4つの指標6を有するドリル装置15
を備えている。
【0021】
X線源1とX線レシーバー2を使って手術前もしくは手術中にX線写真をつくってもよい。手術前にX線写真を撮影すると、数字フォーマットもしくはX線撮影フィルムとして利用することができる。数字フォーマットで利用するなら、このX線写真はコンピューターに直接転送され、そうでなければ、X線フィルムは走査されてコンピューター3に取込まれる。もし手術中にX線写真を撮影するなら、X線源1とX線レシーバー2を使って蛍光透視を行う。X線写真は標準配向で、例えば前方−後方そして中央−側方から撮るべきであり、そしてX線を透過しない指標を有する定規を膝の側に配置して撮るべきである。定規の上のX線を透過しない指標は像に現れ、そしてコンピューター3内でディジタル化されて像の倍率を決定する。このX線写真はテンプレートとして用意される。解剖学的標識点、例えば中間と横の丸い隆起もしくは滑車に対して所望の靭帯配置を、テンプレートの操作によりコンピューター3に表示される医療像の上で直接計画できる。
【0022】
機能的な配慮をするため大腿骨8、脛骨9そしてポインター10の位置測定は、位置測定装置14により行われる。本発明の装置の好ましい実施例では、位置測定装置14はオプトエレクトロニクス・ナビゲーション・システム(オプトトラク3020、ノーザン・ディジタル、キャン.)である。指標6は赤外線放出ダイオード(IRED)であり、位置測定装置14で検出され、それにより基準子4,5、ポインターの先端16、ドリルの先端17そして超音波装置13のヘッド18の位置を計算できる。
【0023】
内視鏡11による直接視認制御によりポインター10を使って脛骨9の構造と大腿骨8の構造をそれぞれディジタル化できる。本発明の装置の好ましい実施例において、ポインター10に内視鏡11が一体化したように、ポインター10はコンピューターに統合された内視鏡的触接フックとなる。
【0024】
後部大腿骨と脛骨の丸い隆起のような標識点は、ポインター10による直接ディジタル化によっては得にくい。このため本発明の装置は指標6を付けたAモード超音波装置13を取込んでいる。この超音波装置13とコンピューター3とにより骨表面と超音波ビームとの交差点と超音波装置13のヘッド18との間の距離を計算できる。自然位での3次元座標20内での超音波ビームの方向と超音波ヘッド18の位置とが位置測定装置14により求められるので、交差点19の位置は、コンピューター3による座標変換によって自然位で3次元座標系20内で求めてもよい。
【0025】
大腿骨8の表面上で、脛骨9の表面上でそれぞれ手術中に測定された点を使って患者の手術中の位置と医療像のデータとの間の関係を確立してもよい。医療像の上でのそのような座標変換はコンピューターで自然位で3次元座標系20に取込んでもよく、それにより移植片の配置の解剖学的な、そして機能的な考察を可能とする。
