隼体ではを椎のように大きな力の加わるところでは、強
度的に問題があり、長期使用に耐えられない。That is, in the method shown in FIG. 10, (a) a large amount of bone cement 4 is used, which generates a large amount of heat during hardening, which leads to necrosis of the surrounding bone tissue. mouth) bone cement 4
In the Hayabusa body, there are strength problems in areas where large forces are applied, such as the vertebrae, and it cannot withstand long-term use.
ハ)ボーンセメント4を埋め込んだ後、長さの調整が不
可能である。 二)骨切除量が多いため、出血量が多い
。c) After implanting the bone cement 4, the length cannot be adjusted. 2) There is a large amount of bleeding due to the large amount of bone removed.
第11図および第12図に示す方法は、第10図に示す

。 等の問題は解決されておらず、ざらに除去すべき椎
体部分の長さを術前に予測することが難しいため、数種
類の長さのものを術前に予め用意しておく必要があった
。The method shown in FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 is designed to solve the problem that the method shown in FIG. 10 has problems with strength and cannot withstand long-term use. A reinforcing material such as metal or ceramic is inserted, but (a) heat generation is large when it hardens, leading to necrosis of the surrounding bone tissue. C) The length cannot be adjusted after implantation. These problems have not been solved, and it is difficult to predict the length of the vertebral body part that should be roughly removed before surgery, so it is necessary to prepare several different lengths in advance before surgery. Ta.
しかし椎体の大きさは、患者により一人ひとり異なりさ
らに症状によって、骨の摘出量が異なるため適正な長さ
のものを入れることは難しかった。However, the size of the vertebral body differs from patient to patient, and the amount of bone removed varies depending on the patient's symptoms, making it difficult to insert a vertebral body of the appropriate length.
さらに、913図に示す方法は、第10図〜第12に示
す方法とは全く異なり、椎体の外側から金属棒8を取り
付けて固定する方法であるが、長期の使用により、金属
棒8が破壊しやすいなどの問題があった。Furthermore, the method shown in Fig. 913 is completely different from the method shown in Figs. There were problems such as ease of destruction.
本発明は、上記の問題点を解決するため、長さが可変で
あり、取りつけが容易で、耐久性に優れた人工椎体を提
供することを目的としている。In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention aims to provide an artificial vertebral body that is variable in length, easy to install, and has excellent durability.
