Description
本出願は、2006年3月15日に出願された仮特許出願第60/782,556号からの優先権の主張を行なう。
本発明は、スポーツ医療における関節鏡手術のための方法および装具に関し、特に、縫合糸アンカー装置(suture anchor devices)を用いた軟組織修復術に関する。
患者の肩の回旋腱板(rotator cuff)の結合組織の損傷または劣化は、しばしば生じる医学的状態で、多くの場合、断裂または分離した結合組織の、骨への部分的または完全な再付着を含む修復術を必要とする。本明細書においては、結合組織(connective tissue)および軟組織(soft tissue)という用語を互換可能に使用し、同様に、縫合糸アンカー(suture anchor)および縫合糸アンカー装置(suture anchor device)を互換可能に使用する。従来の縫合糸アンカーは、典型的に、骨にあけた穴に植え込む装具で、いくつかの方法でそれに取り付ける従来の手術用縫合糸を有している。縫合糸アンカーは、典型的に、骨にあけた穴にアンカーを係合するという特徴を有している。回旋腱板修復術は、切開または関節鏡下の技術および処置を用いて行なうことができるが、近年では、低侵襲性の関節鏡下での方法がより多く受け入れられている。低侵襲性の手術法は、手術時間が短いこと、感染および傷跡が少ないこと、患者の回復時間が早いこと、ならびに、手術結果が良好な場合が多いことを含む、様々な利点を有している。関節鏡下の回旋腱板修復術では、典型的に、軟組織を骨に近接させるため、破断またはその他の損傷の周辺近くに植え込んで配置した、1つまたは複数の縫合糸アンカーを使用する。関節鏡下の回旋腱板修復術は、特定の手術技能のセットを要する低侵襲性の手術であり、一般に、縫合糸アンカー、および、関節鏡術で使用するように特に設計されたその他の手術用インプラント、または装具を必要とする。
したがって、例えば回旋腱板の断裂などの、軟組織の損傷または劣化の関節鏡修復術のための新規の方法および装具を開示する。
本発明は、例えば損傷した肩の回旋腱板の腱(軟組織の一種)を上腕骨に近接させるため、損傷または劣化した軟組織を修復する関節鏡下の処置を行なうための、新規の方法、縫合糸アンカー、および手術キットを提供する。これらの処置を、回旋腱板修復術と称する。用語「近接させる(approximating)」は、組織の2つの部分を近づけ、接触させることを意味する。本発明の新規の方法、アンカーおよびキットは、1つまたは複数の縫合糸アンカーの二列を使用して、軟組織を骨に近接させる回旋腱板修復術を行ない、典型的には、この縫合糸のアンカーの二列は、断裂に対して内側の骨に固定した縫合糸アンカーの内側列(medial row)と、断裂に対して比較的外側の骨に固定したアンカーの外側列(lateral row)とを備えている。ここで、このタイプの手術を、二列回旋腱板修復術(dual row rotator cuff repair)、または、二列修復術(dual row repair)と称する。
