Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the ceramics artificial bone which accelerates the generation of a bone to restore its function in an early period and is satisfactory in strength as well as essentially consisting of the artificial bone of ceramics and continuously changing the porosity thereof from dense to porous state. CONSTITUTION:The ceramics artificial bone is essentially required to have the porosity changing continuously from the dense to the porous state. Since the change in the tissue of the freshly borne bone, fibers or the like formed in the pores when the artificial bone is embedded into a living body is continuous, the destruction does not arise. The reason thereof lies in that since the change of the tissue is continuous, the joint surfaces to be concentrated with stresses by an extreme change in the elastic modulus does not exit and, therefore, the breaking point in the function does not exist. The porosity of the artificial bone is preferably dense and <20% in terms of strength and is preferably in a 20 to 90% range in the case of the porous state. The part to be formed with the freshly borne bone is preferably provided with 50 to 70% porosity. Further, the ratio at which the porosity is continuously changed from the dense to the porous state varies largely with the sections to be used and is usually preferably several %/mm.

Demand has been increasing in recent years. When using such ceramic materials for artificial bones, dense materials are often used for bone defect areas that are subject to high strength loads. A porous material with pores is used. However, in order for an artificial bone to function satisfactorily in a living body, it is expected that it will have both sufficient strength to withstand loads and growth of new bone, and the development of an artificial bone that has both of these functions is required. is desired. As such materials, materials in which a dense body and a porous body are manufactured separately and then joined together by sintering or adhesive bonding are known, but when they are made to function in vivo, new bone grows. Since the elastic modulus is extremely different between the porous part and the dense part, there is a risk of the bone breaking at the bonded part, and it is currently impossible to use it as an artificial bone.

An essential requirement for the ceramic artificial bone according to the present invention is that its porosity continuously changes from dense to porous. Therefore, when implanted into a living body, tissue changes such as new bone and fibers formed in the pores are continuous, so destruction of the tissue does not occur as with conventional bonding materials. This is because the change is continuous, so there is no bonding surface where stress is concentrated due to extreme changes in the elastic modulus, and therefore there is no point of failure during function.

A preferred example of this method will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. For example, when manufacturing a plate-shaped or rectangular parallelepiped artificial bone, two rollers 1a and 1 are used as shown in FIG.
b, and the gap between the rollers is continuously moved in the direction of the arrow by, for example, computer control, etc., to make the part of the organic resin 2 porous having a three-dimensional network structure impregnated with ceramic slurry. can be obtained by removing a slurry of At this time, the rollers 18 and 1b may each be movable, or one roller may be fixed and only the other roller may be moved to remove the slurry. That is, the rJJ gap between the two rollers 1a and 1b is operated to continuously widen or narrow as necessary, and the slurry-impregnated organic resin 2 is inserted into the gap between the rollers 1a and 1b. A desired change in porosity can be obtained by passing through the porosity. Therefore, in the part to be made into a dense body, the thickness t of the organic resin 2 impregnated with slurry is smaller than the gap between the rollers, and in the part to be made into a porous body, the thickness t of the organic resin 2 is made smaller than the gap between the rollers. Preferred examples include a method of making the size larger than the size of the original. In addition, when producing artificial bones such as cylinders, as shown in Fig. 2, an organic resin 2 having a three-dimensional network structure impregnated with ceramic slurry is used.
By gradually compressing the organic resin 2 using pressure jigs 3a and 3b for removing slurry, which have a mesh structure that is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of ', and which allows slurry to pass through, the slurry in the porous portion is removed. Thus, a desired change in porosity can be obtained. That is, the diameter r of the two deslurry pressing jigs 3a and 3b is as follows.

Since it is slightly smaller than the diameter of the organic resin 2', the slurry can be removed by pressing the de-slurry pressure jigs 3a and 3b against the organic resin 2' and pressurizing it. Next, the organic resin 2' or the pressure tools 3a and 3b for removing slurry are rotated within a desired range, for example, about 30 degrees, and the pressure operation is performed again to obtain a uniform desired change in porosity. Moreover, at this time, a spherical artificial bone can also be produced by using a hemispherical pressure jig for removing slurry.
