In general, an intramedullary nail introduced into the medullary cavity of a bone is sometimes used in orthopedic surgery for treating fractures of long bones such as the forearm bones, humerus bones, femurs, and tibias such as the radius and ulna. is there. As such an intramedullary nail, for example, a relatively straight intramedullary nail configured to be drilled in a bone end portion of a long bone with a drill or the like and introduced into the intramedullary cavity from the bone end portion is used. Used in sites that are difficult to introduce from the epiphysis, such as ribs and tibia, but use intramedullary nails designed to be introduced obliquely into the medullary cavity from the outer surface of the bone There is a case. In addition, a fixing hole for inserting and engaging a fixing screw screwed into the cortex of the long bone may be provided in the proximal end portion of these intramedullary nails (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 below) ). This type of intramedullary nail has a thin plate-like plate portion (base end portion) disposed on the outer surface of the bone, and a nail portion (insertion portion) introduced into the medullary cavity. It is known that a screw hole is provided in the part and a step part is provided between the plate part and the nail part.

しかしながら、前述の髄内釘では、髄内釘を骨の外側面より骨軸に対して斜めに導入しようとすると、皮質を穿孔して形成された開口部の外側に円筒面状の内面を有する凹溝が形成されるため、基端部を安定に設置できない場合がある。これを回避するには、穿孔方向の傾斜角度を増加させて挿入部を骨の外側面に対して大きな角度で挿入しなければならないので、基端部と挿入部との間に段差部を設ける必要が生じたり、挿入部の湾曲度合を大きくしたりしなければならないため、髄内釘の挿入作業が難しくなるという問題点がある。   However, in the aforementioned intramedullary nail, when the intramedullary nail is introduced obliquely with respect to the bone axis from the outer surface of the bone, it has a cylindrical inner surface outside the opening formed by drilling the cortex. Since the concave groove is formed, the base end portion may not be stably installed. In order to avoid this, since the insertion portion must be inserted at a large angle with respect to the outer surface of the bone by increasing the inclination angle in the drilling direction, a step portion is provided between the proximal end portion and the insertion portion. There is a problem that it becomes difficult to insert the intramedullary nail because it is necessary or the degree of bending of the insertion portion must be increased.

また、従来のこの種の髄内釘では、骨の外側面から髄腔内に導入することができるようにするため、或いは、髄腔内において所定の整復力を発揮させるために、湾曲した先端部若しくは挿入部を備えている。したがって、髄内釘の挿入部を髄構内に挿入する際に長骨の挿入抵抗により髄内釘が回旋し、所望の姿勢で髄腔内に挿入することができない場合がある。例えば、特許文献1及び特許文献2の図6に示すように従来の基端部であるプレート部は薄いことから、基端部を把持して挿入しようとしても基端部に変形が生じることで挿入部の回旋を必ずしも完全に防止することができない場合があり、また、特許文献2の図1に示すように円柱状の基端部を設けた場合には、当該基端部を把持したときに挿入抵抗により基端部が滑って髄内釘全体が回旋してしまうことが考えられる。   In addition, in the conventional intramedullary nail of this type, a curved tip is used so that it can be introduced into the medullary cavity from the outer surface of the bone, or in order to exert a predetermined reduction force in the medullary cavity. Part or insertion part. Therefore, when the insertion portion of the intramedullary nail is inserted into the medullary structure, the intramedullary nail rotates due to the insertion resistance of the long bone, and may not be inserted into the medullary cavity in a desired posture. For example, as shown in FIG. 6 of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, since the plate portion, which is a conventional base end, is thin, even if the base end is gripped and inserted, deformation occurs in the base end. In some cases, the rotation of the insertion portion cannot be completely prevented, and when a cylindrical base end portion is provided as shown in FIG. 1 of Patent Document 2, the base end portion is gripped. It is conceivable that the proximal end slips due to insertion resistance and the entire intramedullary nail rotates.

そこで、本発明は上記問題点を解決するものであり、その課題は、髄内釘を長骨の外側面より髄腔内に斜めに挿入する場合に、基端部を安定的に長骨の外側面に設置することができるとともに、既定の姿勢で容易かつ確実に挿入部を髄腔内に挿入することができる髄内釘を実現することにある。 Therefore, the present invention solves the above problems, and the problem is that when the intramedullary nail is inserted into the medullary cavity obliquely from the outer surface of the long bone, the proximal end portion of the long bone is stably stabilized. An object of the present invention is to provide an intramedullary nail that can be installed on the outer side surface and can easily and reliably insert the insertion portion into the medullary cavity in a predetermined posture.

斯かる実情に鑑み、本発明の髄内釘は、長骨の外側面側上に配置される基端部と、該基端部から伸びて長骨の髄腔内に挿入される挿入部とを具備する、長骨の内固定を行うための髄内釘において、前記基端部は、軸線に沿って形成された円筒面状の裏面、該裏面よりも平坦化された形状を備えるとともに前記基端部の前記挿入部とは逆側の端縁から前記軸線に沿って形成された表面、及び、該表面から前記裏面に貫通し前記表面の側の内面に固定ねじの頭部を受ける環状の係合受面が形成された固定孔を有する、端部に設けられた第1領域と、該第1領域に対して前記挿入部の側に前記軸線に沿って直線状に伸び、前記第1領域の前記裏面と同軸に一体に連結され、前記第1領域の裏面の外径よりも小さな外径を有する円柱状の第2領域と、を含むことを特徴とする。 In view of such circumstances, the intramedullary nail of the present invention includes a proximal end portion disposed on the outer surface side of the long bone, and an insertion portion that extends from the proximal end portion and is inserted into the medullary cavity of the long bone. comprising the in intramedullary nail for performing internal fixation of a long bone, the proximal end, wherein with comprises a cylindrical surface of the back surface which is formed along the axis, a flattened shape than back surface A surface formed along the axis from the edge opposite to the insertion portion of the base end portion , and an annular shape that receives the head of the fixing screw on the inner surface on the side of the surface penetrating from the surface to the back surface A first region provided at an end portion having a fixing hole formed with an engagement receiving surface, and extending linearly along the axis toward the insertion portion with respect to the first region, A cylindrical second region that is integrally connected coaxially with the back surface of one region and has an outer diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the back surface of the first region; Characterized in that it contains.

この発明によれば、髄内釘の基端部の裏面が軸線に沿った円筒面状に構成されていることにより、長骨の外側面から骨軸に対して斜めに髄腔へ向けて穿孔し、これによって外側面に形成される円筒面状の凹溝に基端部の裏面を整合させることで安定的に設置することができるので、固定ねじの頭部を環状の係合受面に係合させることにより固定孔を用いて基端部を確実に骨の外側面上に固定することができる。また、円筒状の裏面よりも平坦化された表面を設けることにより、基端部の剛性を確保して変形を防止しつつ基端部が回旋しないように把持することが容易になるので、髄内釘の挿入時における回旋を防止し、既定の姿勢で容易かつ確実に髄腔内に挿入部を導入することができる。また、表面が裏面より平坦化されているので、基端部が長骨の外側面上より突出する量をなくすか、或いは、低減することができる。 According to this invention, the back surface of the proximal end portion of the intramedullary nail is formed in a cylindrical surface shape along the axis, so that the outer surface of the long bone is drilled obliquely with respect to the bone axis toward the medullary cavity. In this way, the back surface of the base end can be stably aligned with the cylindrical groove formed on the outer surface, so that the head of the fixing screw can be used as an annular engagement receiving surface. By engaging, the proximal end can be reliably fixed on the outer surface of the bone using the fixing hole. Further, by making beyond the back surface of the cylindrical surface providing a planarized surface, since the base end portion while preventing the deformation to secure the rigidity of the base end portion is easy to grip to prevent rotation, Rotation during insertion of the intramedullary nail can be prevented, and the insertion portion can be easily and reliably introduced into the medullary cavity in a predetermined posture. Further, since the front surface is flattened from the back surface, it is possible to eliminate or reduce the amount of the proximal end portion protruding from the outer surface of the long bone.

本発明において、前記固定孔の開口縁に切り欠き部が設けられていることが好ましい。これによれば、固定孔の開口縁に切り欠き部が設けられることにより固定孔の開口縁の弾性変形が可能となるため、固定ねじ等の固定部材の頭部を弾性的に保持するように構成したり、或いは、当該固定部材の骨に対する挿入角度の自由度を高めたりすることが可能になる。また、上記固定部材の除去手術時において当該切り欠き部を通して固定部材の頭部を把持し、強制的に固定部材を抜去することも可能になる。   In this invention, it is preferable that the notch part is provided in the opening edge of the said fixing hole. According to this, since the cutout portion is provided at the opening edge of the fixing hole, the opening edge of the fixing hole can be elastically deformed, so that the head of the fixing member such as the fixing screw is elastically held. It is possible to increase the degree of freedom of the insertion angle of the fixing member with respect to the bone. It is also possible to grasp the head of the fixing member through the notch and remove the fixing member forcibly at the time of removing the fixing member.

本発明において、前記開口縁には前記固定孔を中心とする対向位置に一対の前記切り欠き部が設けられていることが望ましい。これによれば、一対の切り欠き部が設けられることにより、固定孔の弾性変形をさらに容易に生じさせることが可能になるとともに、固定部材の頭部を両側から挟みこんだ状態にて把持することが可能になるため、抜去作業をより容易に行うことが可能になる。   In the present invention, it is desirable that the opening edge is provided with a pair of notches at opposite positions with the fixing hole as a center. According to this, by providing the pair of notches, it is possible to cause the fixing hole to be more easily elastically deformed, and to hold the head of the fixing member sandwiched from both sides. Therefore, the extraction work can be performed more easily.

本発明において、前記切り欠き部は、前記軸線に沿って伸びるスリット状に構成されていることが望ましい。これによれば、切り欠き部が軸線に沿ったスリット状に構成されていることにより、固定孔の開口縁をさらに容易に弾性変形させることが可能になる。   In the present invention, it is desirable that the notch is configured in a slit shape extending along the axis. According to this, since the notch is configured in a slit shape along the axis, the opening edge of the fixing hole can be more easily elastically deformed.

次に、本発明の整形外科手術器具セットは、長骨の外側面上に配置される基端部と、該基端部から伸びて長骨の髄腔内に挿入される挿入部とを具備する、長骨の内固定を行うための髄内釘と、該髄内釘の前記基端部に取り付けられる挿入器具と、を具備する整形外科手術器具セットにおいて、前記基端部は、軸線に沿って形成された円筒面状の裏面、該裏面より平坦化された形状を備えるとともに前記基端部の前記挿入部とは逆側の端縁から前記軸線に沿って形成された表面、及び、該表面から前記裏面に貫通し前記表面の側の内面に固定ねじの頭部を受ける環状の係合受面が形成された固定孔を有する、端部に設けられた第1領域と、該第1領域に対して前記挿入部の側に前記軸線に沿って直線状に伸び、前記第1領域の前記裏面と同軸に一体に連結され、前記第1領域の裏面の外径よりも小さな外径を有する円柱状の第2領域と、を含み、前記挿入器具は、前記裏面及び前記表面に対して前記軸線周りに係合する係合構造を有することを特徴とする。

It is characterized by having a mating engagement structure.




本発明において、前記挿入器具は、前記係合構造を前記基端部に係合させた状態で前記固定孔に係合して固定する固定手段をさらに含むことが好ましい。これによれば、基端部の固定孔を利用して挿入器具を固定手段により固定できるため、挿入作業をさらに容易に行うことが可能になる。   In the present invention, it is preferable that the insertion instrument further includes a fixing unit that engages and fixes the fixing hole in a state where the engaging structure is engaged with the base end portion. According to this, since the insertion instrument can be fixed by the fixing means using the fixing hole in the base end portion, the insertion operation can be performed more easily.

本発明において、前記固定孔の開口縁には前記固定孔を中心とする対向位置に一対の切り欠き部が設けられるとともに、前記固定孔に挿通されて係合可能な頭部を備えた固定ねじと、前記一対の切り欠き部に挿入可能な一対のフック部を有し、該一対のフック部を前記切り欠き部にそれぞれ挿入して前記固定ねじの前記頭部を把持可能な抜去器具と、をさらに具備することが好ましい。これによれば、抜去器具の一対のフック部を切り欠き部を通して挿入し、固定ねじの頭部を挟み込んで把持することができるので、固定ねじを強制的に抜去することが可能になる。 In the present invention, together with out portion Ri pair of switching to the opposite position is provided around the fixing hole in the opening edge of the fixing hole, with engagable head is inserted into the fixing holes fixing An extraction device having a screw and a pair of hook portions that can be inserted into the pair of notches, and inserting the pair of hook portions into the notches to grip the head of the fixing screw. It is preferable to further comprise.

An excellent effect of being able to be introduced into the cavity can be obtained.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図示例と共に説明する。図1は本発明に係る実施形態の髄内釘10の平面図(a)及び側面図(b)、図2(a)及び(b)は髄内釘10の挿入部12を長骨(図示例では橈骨)1の髄腔内に挿入し、しかも、基端部11を固定ねじ13によって長骨1の外側面上に固定した様子を示す側方透視図及び平面透視図、図2(c)は基端部11の一部を拡大して示す拡大平面図、図2(d)は拡大縦断面図、図2(e)は挿入部12の拡大断面図である。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view (a) and a side view (b) of an intramedullary nail 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b) show an insertion portion 12 of the intramedullary nail 10 as a long bone (FIG. 2 (c), a side perspective view and a plan perspective view showing that the proximal end portion 11 is fixed on the outer surface of the long bone 1 by a fixing screw 13; ) Is an enlarged plan view showing a part of the base end portion 11 in an enlarged manner, FIG. 2D is an enlarged vertical sectional view, and FIG. 2E is an enlarged sectional view of the insertion portion 12.

髄内釘10は、基端部11と、この基端部11の軸線方向端部に一体に連結され、その連結部分から伸びる挿入部12とを有する。髄内釘10はステンレス鋼、純チタン、チタン合金等によって構成される。基端部11には、固定孔11aが設けられた第1領域11Aと、この第1領域11Aに一体に連結され、第1領域11Aよりも幅狭に形成された第2領域11Bとを有し、この第2領域11Bが上記挿入部に一体に連結されている。   The intramedullary nail 10 includes a proximal end portion 11 and an insertion portion 12 that is integrally connected to the axial end portion of the proximal end portion 11 and extends from the connection portion. The intramedullary nail 10 is made of stainless steel, pure titanium, titanium alloy or the like. The base end portion 11 includes a first region 11A provided with a fixing hole 11a, and a second region 11B that is integrally connected to the first region 11A and formed narrower than the first region 11A. The second region 11B is integrally connected to the insertion portion.

髄内釘10の端部に設けられた第1領域11Aには固定孔11aが厚み方向に貫通している。第1領域11Aの厚み方向両側には表面11bと裏面11cが設けられ、表面11bは長骨(図示例では橈骨)1と反対側に向き、裏面11cは長骨1に接するように構成されている。表面11bは端縁から軸線11xに沿って平坦に構成され、裏面11cは基端部11の軸線11xを中心とする円筒面状に構成されている。なお、表面11bは完全に平坦な面である必要はなく、裏面よりも平坦化された面形状(裏面の曲率より小さい曲率を有する面など)を有していればよい。 A fixing hole 11a passes through the first region 11A provided at the end of the intramedullary nail 10 in the thickness direction. A front surface 11b and a back surface 11c are provided on both sides in the thickness direction of the first region 11A, the front surface 11b faces away from the long bone (rib in the illustrated example) 1, and the back surface 11c is configured to contact the long bone 1. Yes. The front surface 11b is configured to be flat along the axis 11x from the end edge, and the back surface 11c is configured to be a cylindrical surface centering on the axis 11x of the base end portion 11. Note that the front surface 11b does not need to be a completely flat surface, and may have a planar shape (such as a surface having a curvature smaller than the curvature of the back surface) that is flatter than the back surface.

固定孔11aは表面11bに開口している。固定孔11aはほぼ円形の開口形状を有し、その開口縁には基端部11の軸線11xに沿った方向(基端部11の長手方向)に切り欠き部11s、11tが設けられている。切り欠き部11sと11tは固定孔11aを挟んで相互に対向する位置に設けられている。切り欠き部11s及び11tはそれぞれ表面11b上において固定孔11aの開口範囲に連通する凹溝として構成されている。また、切り欠き部11s、11tはそれぞれ基端部11の軸線11xの方向(基端部11の長手方向)と平行に構成され、さらに、軸線11xと平行に伸びるスリット状(直線状)に形成されている。なお、切り欠き部11s、11tとしては、図示例のように凹溝状(すなわち内底部があり貫通していない形状)である必要はなく、固定孔11aに連通するものでさえあれば、第1領域11Aの厚み方向に貫通する構造を有していてもよい。このようにした方が固定孔11aの開口形状は弾性変形しやすくなる。   The fixing hole 11a opens to the surface 11b. The fixing hole 11a has a substantially circular opening shape, and notches 11s and 11t are provided at the opening edge in a direction along the axis 11x of the base end part 11 (longitudinal direction of the base end part 11). . The notches 11s and 11t are provided at positions facing each other across the fixing hole 11a. The notches 11s and 11t are each configured as a concave groove communicating with the opening range of the fixing hole 11a on the surface 11b. The notches 11s and 11t are each formed in parallel to the direction of the axis 11x of the base end 11 (longitudinal direction of the base end 11), and further formed into a slit shape (linear) extending parallel to the axis 11x. Has been. The notches 11s and 11t do not need to have a concave groove shape (that is, a shape that has an inner bottom and does not penetrate) as shown in the illustrated example. You may have the structure penetrated in the thickness direction of 1 area | region 11A. In this way, the opening shape of the fixing hole 11a is easily elastically deformed.

図2(c)及び(d)に示すように、固定孔11aの内面には固定ねじ13の頭部13aを受ける環状の係合受面11nが形成されている。本実施形態では、固定孔11aの開口縁の内径が頭部13aより小さく形成されている。そして、頭部13aを開口縁に押圧することで、上記切り欠き部11s、11tによる弾性変形で開口が一時的に大きくなり、頭部13aを固定孔11aの内部に嵌合させることができるようになっている。このようにすると、長骨1の皮質に螺合した固定ねじ13のねじ部13bが緩んだときに、頭部13aが髄内釘10から突出することを防止できる。なお、固定孔11aは、上記の構造とは異なり、表面11b側の開口部分がそのまま頭部13aをも通過させることができ、頭部13aが単に上記係合受面11nで受け止められるように構成されていてもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 2C and 2D, an annular engagement receiving surface 11n that receives the head 13a of the fixing screw 13 is formed on the inner surface of the fixing hole 11a. In the present embodiment, the inner diameter of the opening edge of the fixing hole 11a is formed smaller than the head 13a. Then, by pressing the head 13a against the opening edge, the opening temporarily increases due to the elastic deformation by the notches 11s and 11t, so that the head 13a can be fitted into the fixed hole 11a. It has become. In this way, it is possible to prevent the head 13a from protruding from the intramedullary nail 10 when the screw portion 13b of the fixing screw 13 screwed into the cortex of the long bone 1 is loosened. Unlike the above structure, the fixing hole 11a is configured such that the opening portion on the surface 11b side can pass through the head 13a as it is, and the head 13a is simply received by the engagement receiving surface 11n. May be.

第2領域11Bは上記軸線11xを中心とする円柱状に構成されている。すなわち、基端部11は軸線11xに沿って直線状に延び、第1領域11Aの裏面11cと第2領域11Bの表面とは同軸の円筒面状に構成されている。ただし、裏面11cの円筒面の径は第2領域11Bの表面の円筒面の径よりも大きく構成されている。   The second region 11B is formed in a cylindrical shape centered on the axis 11x. That is, the base end portion 11 extends linearly along the axis 11x, and the back surface 11c of the first region 11A and the surface of the second region 11B are configured in a coaxial cylindrical surface. However, the diameter of the cylindrical surface of the back surface 11c is configured to be larger than the diameter of the cylindrical surface of the surface of the second region 11B.

挿入部12は全体として弾性変形可能な棒状に構成されている。上記基端部11に接続された連結部12sは曲折し、これによって上記軸線11xより外れて挿入部12が伸びるように構成されている。挿入部12の外面には図2(e)に示すように複数の凹溝12aが設けられ、これらの間に凸条12bが形成されている。すなわち、挿入部12の断面は星形(図示例では凹溝12a及び凸条12bの数が4であるが、当該数は特に限定されない。)である。これによって挿入部12が海綿骨に食い込みやすくなるので、骨折部の回旋防止や固定力の増大を図ることができる。挿入部12の先端部12cは基端部11の傾斜方向と同じ方向に湾曲しているとともに、当該傾斜方向に見た厚みが低減され、全体として舌状(ヘラ状)に形成されている。これによって、挿入時において髄腔の形状に沿って挿入部12の先端部12cが案内されるとともに、挿入部12の回旋抵抗を増大させることができるため、組織に損傷を与えずに安定かつスムーズに挿入部12を髄腔内に導入することが可能になる。   The insertion portion 12 is configured as a rod that can be elastically deformed as a whole. The connecting portion 12s connected to the base end portion 11 is bent so that the insertion portion 12 extends from the axis 11x. As shown in FIG. 2 (e), a plurality of concave grooves 12a are provided on the outer surface of the insertion portion 12, and convex ridges 12b are formed therebetween. That is, the cross section of the insertion portion 12 is a star shape (in the illustrated example, the number of the concave grooves 12a and the convex stripes 12b is four, but the number is not particularly limited). As a result, the insertion portion 12 can easily bite into the cancellous bone, so that the rotation of the fracture portion can be prevented and the fixing force can be increased. The distal end portion 12c of the insertion portion 12 is curved in the same direction as the inclination direction of the base end portion 11, and the thickness seen in the inclination direction is reduced, and is formed in a tongue shape (a spatula shape) as a whole. As a result, the distal end portion 12c of the insertion portion 12 is guided along the shape of the medullary cavity at the time of insertion, and the rotational resistance of the insertion portion 12 can be increased, so that the tissue can be stably and smoothly damaged without being damaged. Thus, the insertion portion 12 can be introduced into the medullary cavity.

挿入部12の長手方向に見た延在形状は好ましくは長骨1の髄腔内で内固定作用を生ずるための三次元的に湾曲した形状(アナトミカル形状)を有する。そして、挿入された挿入部12は髄腔内において弾性復元力によって内側から長骨1を整復状態に保持する機能を備えている。なお、図示例の挿入部12の延在形状は橈骨に対応する形状であるが、これは髄腔の形状に応じて適宜に設定される。   The extension shape seen in the longitudinal direction of the insertion portion 12 preferably has a three-dimensionally curved shape (anatomical shape) for generating an internal fixation action in the medullary cavity of the long bone 1. The inserted insertion portion 12 has a function of holding the long bone 1 in a reduced state from the inside by an elastic restoring force in the medullary cavity. In addition, although the extended shape of the insertion part 12 of the example of illustration is a shape corresponding to a radius, this is set suitably according to the shape of a medullary cavity.

以上説明した構造を有する髄内釘10は、以下のようにして用いられる。まず、図2に示す長骨1の端部寄り外側面において反対側の端部へ向けて斜めにエントリーホール(長骨1の皮質の開口部)1aを図7に示すように形成する。エントリーホール1aの形成は、小径の先端側穿孔部と、該先端部より大径の基端側穿孔部とを有する2段の穿孔刃構造を有する穿孔器具(オウル、ドリル、リーマ等)を用いる。エントリーホール1aは骨軸に対して15〜25度、好ましくは20度の軸線に沿って穿孔器具を適用することにより形成する。この加工によって長骨1の外側面には髄腔に連通する楕円状の開口であるエントリーホール1aが形成され、これが髄内釘10の刺入点となる。橈骨の場合、刺入点は遠位寄りに設定され、遠位側関節面より7mm以上近位側に設定される。   The intramedullary nail 10 having the structure described above is used as follows. First, as shown in FIG. 7, an entry hole (cortical opening of the long bone 1) 1a is formed obliquely toward the opposite end on the outer surface near the end of the long bone 1 shown in FIG. The entry hole 1a is formed by using a drilling tool (Owl, drill, reamer, etc.) having a two-stage drilling blade structure having a small-diameter distal-side perforated portion and a proximal-side perforated portion larger in diameter than the distal end portion. . The entry hole 1a is formed by applying a drilling instrument along an axis of 15 to 25 degrees, preferably 20 degrees with respect to the bone axis. By this processing, an entry hole 1 a which is an elliptical opening communicating with the medullary cavity is formed on the outer surface of the long bone 1, and this becomes the insertion point of the intramedullary nail 10. In the case of the rib, the insertion point is set at the distal side, and is set at a proximal side by 7 mm or more from the distal joint surface.

また、エントリーホール1aの刺入点の手前には円筒面状の内面を備えた凹溝1b、1cが形成され、これが髄内釘10の基端部11の第1領域11Aの裏面11c及び第2領域11Bに整合するように、予め穿孔器具の穿孔径が選定される。具体的には、穿孔器具の先端側穿孔部の加工径(凹溝1bの内径)は基端部11の第2領域11Bの外径と一致し、穿孔器具の基端側穿孔部の加工径(凹溝1cの内径)は基端部11の第1領域11Aの裏面11cの外径と一致するように設定される。   Further, in front of the entry point of the entry hole 1a, concave grooves 1b and 1c having a cylindrical inner surface are formed, which are the back surface 11c and the first surface 11c of the first region 11A of the proximal end portion 11 of the intramedullary nail 10. The drilling diameter of the drilling device is selected in advance so as to match the two regions 11B. Specifically, the processing diameter (inner diameter of the concave groove 1b) of the front end side perforation part of the perforation instrument is identical to the outer diameter of the second region 11B of the base end part 11, and the processing diameter of the base end side perforation part of the perforation instrument (Inner diameter of the concave groove 1c) is set so as to coincide with the outer diameter of the back surface 11c of the first region 11A of the base end portion 11.

次に、図3(a)に示す挿入器具20を用いて髄内釘10の挿入部12を上記エントリーホール1aから髄腔内へ挿入する。挿入器具20は、先端に設けられた取付部21と、この取付部21に接続された可撓性の軸体(例えば、薄帯材を巻回して軸状に構成したもの)で構成される軸部22と、この軸部22に接続された平坦部23aを備えた把持部23と、この把持部23に接続された工具係合部24と、を軸線に沿って順次に有してなる。なお、工具係合部24は図4(c)に示すスライドハンマー50に係合するための連結ねじ穴24aを備えている。   Next, the insertion portion 12 of the intramedullary nail 10 is inserted into the medullary cavity from the entry hole 1a using the insertion instrument 20 shown in FIG. The insertion instrument 20 includes a mounting portion 21 provided at the distal end and a flexible shaft connected to the mounting portion 21 (for example, a thin strip material wound into a shaft shape). A shaft portion 22, a grip portion 23 having a flat portion 23 a connected to the shaft portion 22, and a tool engaging portion 24 connected to the grip portion 23 are sequentially provided along the axis. . In addition, the tool engaging part 24 is provided with the connection screw hole 24a for engaging with the slide hammer 50 shown in FIG.4 (c).

挿入器具20の取付部21には、図4(a)に示すように、髄内釘10の基端部11(の第1領域11A)が挿入可能に構成された係合穴21aが設けられ、この係合穴21aは取付部21の端面に開口している。係合穴21aは第1領域11Aの断面形状に対応する開口断面を有し、第1領域11Aの表面11bに対応する平坦な内面部と、この内面に対向配置され、裏面11cに対応する円筒面状の内面部とを備えている。これにより、基端部11が係合穴21aに挿入されたとき、髄内釘10は挿入器具20に対して軸線周りの回転が規制される態様で接続される。すなわち、当該係合穴21aは上記の係合構造に相当する。   As shown in FIG. 4A, the attachment portion 21 of the insertion instrument 20 is provided with an engagement hole 21a configured to allow insertion of the proximal end portion 11 (the first region 11A thereof) of the intramedullary nail 10. The engagement hole 21 a is open on the end surface of the attachment portion 21. The engagement hole 21a has an opening cross section corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the first region 11A, a flat inner surface corresponding to the front surface 11b of the first region 11A, and a cylinder corresponding to the inner surface and corresponding to the rear surface 11c. And a planar inner surface portion. Thereby, when the base end part 11 is inserted in the engagement hole 21a, the intramedullary nail 10 is connected to the insertion instrument 20 in a manner in which the rotation around the axis is restricted. That is, the engagement hole 21a corresponds to the above-described engagement structure.

取付部21にはその上部に開口し、上記係合穴21aに連通するねじ孔21bが設けられている。このねじ孔21bに止めねじ21c(図4(b)参照)を螺入し、止めねじ21cの先端を上記固定孔11aに係合させることで、挿入器具20に髄内釘10を連結固定することができる。この係合穴21aと止めねじ21は上記固定手段に相当する。 The attachment portion 21 is provided with a screw hole 21b that opens to the top thereof and communicates with the engagement hole 21a. A set screw 21c (see FIG. 4B) is screwed into the screw hole 21b, and the distal end of the set screw 21c is engaged with the fixing hole 11a, whereby the intramedullary nail 10 is connected and fixed to the insertion instrument 20. be able to. The engagement holes 21a and set screw 21 c correspond to the fixing means.

次に、図4(b)及び(c)に示すように、挿入器具20を用いて髄内釘10の挿入部12をエントリーホール1aから長骨1の髄腔内へ挿入していく。このとき、挿入器具20は髄内釘10に対して軸線周りに固定されているので、挿入時における髄内釘10の回旋を防止することができる。特に、挿入時において挿入器具20と連結される第1領域11Aは厚肉に形成されているため、充分な剛性を有し、さらに、第2領域11Bの軸線周りのねじれ剛性も高いため、基端部11の変形等によって挿入部12の回旋が発生することもない。なお、エントリーホール1aから計測用ワイヤを挿入して髄腔の深さを測定したり、長骨1とテンプレートとを重ね合わせてX線画像等の透視画像で長骨1の長さを確認したりする等の方法により、事前に髄内釘10の最適長さを求めておき、当該最適長さを有する髄内釘10を選定して用いることが好ましい。   Next, as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C, the insertion portion 12 of the intramedullary nail 10 is inserted into the medullary cavity of the long bone 1 from the entry hole 1 a using the insertion tool 20. At this time, since the insertion instrument 20 is fixed around the axis with respect to the intramedullary nail 10, rotation of the intramedullary nail 10 during insertion can be prevented. In particular, since the first region 11A connected to the insertion instrument 20 at the time of insertion is formed thick, it has sufficient rigidity, and furthermore, the torsional rigidity around the axis of the second region 11B is also high. The rotation of the insertion portion 12 does not occur due to the deformation of the end portion 11 or the like. In addition, a measurement wire is inserted from the entry hole 1a to measure the depth of the medullary cavity, and the length of the long bone 1 is confirmed by a fluoroscopic image such as an X-ray image by superimposing the long bone 1 and the template. It is preferable to obtain the optimal length of the intramedullary nail 10 in advance by a method such as, and to select and use the intramedullary nail 10 having the optimal length.

髄内釘10の基端部11がエントリーホール1aに近づき、長骨1の外側面上に配置されるようになったら、挿入器具20を髄内釘10から取り外し、図3(c)に示すステップインパクタ40を用いて基端部11をエントリーホール1aの手前の凹溝1b、1cに整合させる。ステップインパクタ40は、上記固定孔11aに嵌合する形状に構成されてなる先端加圧部41と、平坦部42aを備えた把持部42と、工具係合部43及び44とを有している。工具係合部43、44は上記スライドハンマー50が接続できるように構成されている。   When the proximal end portion 11 of the intramedullary nail 10 approaches the entry hole 1a and is placed on the outer surface of the long bone 1, the insertion instrument 20 is removed from the intramedullary nail 10 and shown in FIG. 3 (c). Using the step impactor 40, the base end portion 11 is aligned with the concave grooves 1b and 1c in front of the entry hole 1a. The step impactor 40 includes a tip pressurizing part 41 configured to fit into the fixed hole 11a, a grip part 42 provided with a flat part 42a, and tool engaging parts 43 and 44. . The tool engaging portions 43 and 44 are configured so that the slide hammer 50 can be connected.

図5に示すように、先端加圧部41は髄内釘10の基端部11における固定孔11aに嵌合し、その開口縁に係合するように構成されており、ステップインパクタ40の側面に設けられた工具係合部43に図示しない手動ハンマーや上記スライドハンマー50等で衝撃を与えることで、髄内釘10を完全に打ち込むことができる。髄内釘10の長骨1に対する挿入作業が完了すると、髄内釘10の基端部11はエントリーホール1aの手前(外側)に形成された凹溝1b、1cに嵌合した状態とされる。   As shown in FIG. 5, the distal end pressing portion 41 is configured to fit into the fixing hole 11 a in the proximal end portion 11 of the intramedullary nail 10 and engage with the opening edge thereof, and the side surface of the step impactor 40. The intramedullary nail 10 can be driven completely by applying an impact to the tool engaging portion 43 provided in the above with a manual hammer (not shown), the slide hammer 50 or the like. When the insertion of the intramedullary nail 10 into the long bone 1 is completed, the proximal end portion 11 of the intramedullary nail 10 is brought into a state of being fitted into the concave grooves 1b and 1c formed in front (outside) of the entry hole 1a. .

この状態において、図7に示すように、第1領域11Aの裏面11cはエントリーホール1aの反対側にある大径の凹溝1cに密接に嵌合し、第2領域11Bの裏面はエントリーホール1a側に形成された小径の凹溝1bに密接に嵌合する。この場合、エントリーホール1aの外側に形成される凹溝1b、1cの軸線(これは基端部11の軸線11xと一致する。)が骨軸に対して傾斜しているので、エントリーホール1a側の凹溝1bは深く、エントリーホール1aから離間した凹溝1cは浅く形成されるが、凹溝1bは小径で、凹溝1cは大径であるので、いずれの凹溝1b、1cも基端部11を確実に嵌合させることができる。また、第1領域11Aの表面11bは平坦に構成されているので、長骨1の周囲の外側面から大きく突出することがない。   In this state, as shown in FIG. 7, the back surface 11c of the first region 11A is closely fitted in the large-diameter groove 1c on the opposite side of the entry hole 1a, and the back surface of the second region 11B is the entry hole 1a. It closely fits into the small-diameter groove 1b formed on the side. In this case, the axis of the grooves 1b and 1c formed on the outside of the entry hole 1a (which coincides with the axis 11x of the base end 11) is inclined with respect to the bone axis, so the entry hole 1a side The groove 1b is deep and the groove 1c spaced from the entry hole 1a is shallow, but the groove 1b has a small diameter and the groove 1c has a large diameter. The part 11 can be reliably fitted. Moreover, since the surface 11b of the first region 11A is configured to be flat, it does not protrude significantly from the outer surface around the long bone 1.

その後、基端部11の固定孔11aを通して図示しないドリル等の穿孔工具により長骨1の皮質にスクリューホールを形成し、図2に示す固定ねじ13を螺入する。固定ねじ13が皮質にしっかりとねじ込まれると、頭部13aの座面は固定孔11a内の係合受面11nに密接し、基端部11を長骨1の外側面上に固定する。   Then, a screw hole is formed in the cortex of the long bone 1 through a fixing hole 11a of the base end portion 11 with a drilling tool such as a drill (not shown), and the fixing screw 13 shown in FIG. When the fixing screw 13 is firmly screwed into the cortex, the seating surface of the head 13a comes into close contact with the engagement receiving surface 11n in the fixing hole 11a, and fixes the proximal end portion 11 on the outer surface of the long bone 1.

図6は、上記のように装着された髄内釘10を除去する場合の手順を示すものである。骨折部が癒合した後に髄内釘10を除去する場合には上記とは逆に固定ねじ13を除去してから髄内釘10を取り除く。固定ねじ13は通常のレンチやドライバー等の工具で取り外すことができる場合もあるが、固定ねじ13が仮骨形成等によって長骨1に強固に固着されている場合や、骨質が柔らかいために固定ねじ13のネジ部13bが空回りしてネジを緩めることができなくなってしまった場合には、図3に示す抜去器具30を用いる。この抜去器具30は、先端の係合部31に一対のフック部31a,31aを有し、これらのフック部31a,31aは、回転操作部32を把持部33に対して回転操作することで開閉可能となるように構成されている。なお、把持部33には平坦部33aが設けられている。   FIG. 6 shows a procedure for removing the intramedullary nail 10 mounted as described above. In the case of removing the intramedullary nail 10 after the fracture has been fused, the intramedullary nail 10 is removed after removing the fixing screw 13 contrary to the above. The fixing screw 13 may be removed with a normal tool such as a wrench or a screwdriver. However, the fixing screw 13 is fixed when the fixing screw 13 is firmly fixed to the long bone 1 by a callus formation or the bone quality is soft. When the screw portion 13b of the screw 13 is idle and cannot be loosened, the removal tool 30 shown in FIG. 3 is used. The extraction device 30 has a pair of hook portions 31 a and 31 a at the engagement portion 31 at the tip, and these hook portions 31 a and 31 a are opened and closed by rotating the rotation operation portion 32 with respect to the grip portion 33. It is configured to be possible. The grip portion 33 is provided with a flat portion 33a.

上記のフック部31a、31aは基端部11に設けられた切り欠き部11s、11tにそれぞれ導入可能に構成されている。したがって、一対のフック部31a,31aを開いた状態で図6(a)及び(b)に示すようにこれらのフック部31a,31aを切り欠き部11s、11tに挿入し、その後、一対のフック部31a,31aを閉じることで、フック部31a、31aによって固定ねじ13の頭部13を強固に把持することができる。そして、仮骨形成の度合等に応じて図示しない手動ハンマーや図示のスライドハンマー50を用いて衝撃を与えること等により骨との癒合を解除し、図6(c)に示すように固定ねじ13を抜去する。その後は、上記の装着手順と逆の手順で、ステップインパクタ40や挿入器具20を用いて髄内釘10を長骨1内から引き出す。   The hook portions 31a and 31a are configured to be able to be introduced into the notches 11s and 11t provided in the base end portion 11, respectively. Therefore, with the pair of hook portions 31a and 31a opened, the hook portions 31a and 31a are inserted into the notches 11s and 11t as shown in FIGS. By closing the portions 31a and 31a, the head portion 13 of the fixing screw 13 can be firmly held by the hook portions 31a and 31a. Then, the union with the bone is released by applying an impact using a manual hammer (not shown) or a slide hammer 50 (not shown) according to the degree of callus formation, and the fixing screw 13 as shown in FIG. 6 (c). To remove. Thereafter, the intramedullary nail 10 is pulled out from the long bone 1 using the step impactor 40 and the insertion instrument 20 in a procedure reverse to the above installation procedure.
