Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the production of the artificial joint which meets different sizes in a short period of time, has the high fitness to the residual bone and prevents the induction of a bone fracture by integrally forming a core part between an engaging part and a stem part and forming a sheath part to a separate body of a blank material which is lighter in weight than the core part and has a small Young's modulus. CONSTITUTION:The prosthetic part formed between the stem part 23 and the joint engaging part 21 consists of the core part 22b and the sheath part 22a. The core part 22b is made of a metal and is integrally formed of the stem part 23 and the engaging part 21. The sheath part 22a is formed of a high- polymer material, such as high-density polyethylene or polycarbonate resin, a light metallic material, such as pure titanium or titanium alloy, or rubber material, etc. This part is formed of the material which is lighter in weight than the core part 22b and has the small Young's modulus. As a result, the artificial joint member 2 is formed lighter than the conventional artificial joints and has the Young's modulus approximate to the Young's modulus of the residual bone. The member does not hinder walking and does not lead to the bone fracture.

2. Description of the Related Art Knee joints may be excised and replaced with artificial knee joints in cases where severe bone damage is occurring in knee arthrosis or rheumatism or in the treatment of bone tumors and the like. For example, a bone tumor is a disease that easily occurs on the distal side of the femur B and the proximal side of the tibia A shown in FIG. 4 (a view of a longitudinal section along the body side of the right leg seen from the rear side). Larger or smaller excision of the joint site should be performed to prevent tumor metastasis to other sites. At this time, consideration should be given to leaving the bones of the patient as residual bones as much as possible. Although the degree depends on the degree of disease and the patient's condition, the anterior cruciate ligament 6a (back side of the paper), the posterior cruciate ligament 6b (paper surface) (Front side), the medial collateral ligament 5a, the lateral collateral ligament 5b, etc. are all removed, so that the motor function and the fixing function of the knee joint are lost.

Many of the artificial joint members 1, 2 and 3 are integrally formed of a metal material such as stainless steel or cobalt alloy having a high corrosion resistance, and the weight of the artificial joint members deteriorates the walking function of the patient. was there. In addition, the rigidity of the remaining bone and these members are significantly different (for example,
The Young's modulus of bone is 16 GPa, whereas the Young's modulus of stainless steel is 300 GPa). Due to this difference, the compatibility of the artificial joint and the residual bone is poor, which may cause destruction of the residual bone. There were many.
