본 발명의 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세히는 인체의 척추를 구성하는 가시돌기 사이에 삽입하여 고령에서와 같이 퇴행성 변화가 생기게 되면 과다한 운동이 일어나서 요통을 유발하거나 관절염, 신경이 눌려서 생기는 신경통 등을 예방할 수 있도록 한 보철물을 제공하되, 경피적으로(여는 수술이 아닌 내시경처럼 좁은 관을 이용해서 하는) 삽입 시술이 가능한 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물을 제공하여 시술 후 흉터의 크기를 줄이고 근육 손상방지, 가시돌기 사이에 정상적으로 존재하는 인대를 보존할 수 있도록 한 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물을 제공코자 하는 것이다.The present invention relates to a prosthesis for inserting spinal spines of the present invention, and more particularly, when a degenerative change is generated between the spinous processes forming the spinal column of the human body, excessive movement occurs to cause back pain or arthritis and nerves. Providing a prosthesis to prevent neuralgia, etc., but providing a prosthesis for spinal spine spine that can be inserted percutaneously (using a narrow tube like an endoscope rather than surgery) to reduce the size of the scar after surgery To prevent damage and to preserve the normal ligament between spinous processes to provide a spinal spinal prosthesis prosthesis.

통상 인체의 척추는 각 분절이 허리를 굽히고 펼 때 운동이 일어나게 된다.Normally, the spine of the human body is exercised when each segment bends and stretches back.

이러한 운동은 건강한 척추에서는 제한된 범위 내에서 일어나지만, 고령에서와 같이 퇴행성 변화가 생기게 되면 과다한 운동이 일어나서 요통을 유발하거나 관절염, 신경이 눌려서 생기는 신경통 등이 일어날 수 있다.These movements occur within a limited range in healthy spines, but when degenerative changes occur, such as in older people, excessive movement may occur, causing low back pain, arthritis, and neuralgia caused by depressed nerves.

이러한 증상을 예방하기 위하여 척추 가시돌기에 장착하여 운동을 제한하는 보철물은 기존에도 알려진 바 있으나,In order to prevent this symptom, a prosthesis that is attached to the spinal spine and restricts movement has been known.

이는 환부를 모두 열어 보철물을 삽입토록 함으로써, 수술 후 흉터가 크게 남고, 수술 중 근육손상 등이 발생하는 경우가 있어 이를 해결할 수 있는 보철물의 개발이 절실했던 것이다.This is to open the affected area to insert the prosthesis, so that the scar after surgery, muscle damage, etc. may occur during surgery, the development of a prosthesis to solve this is urgently needed.

이에 본 발명에서는 상기한 바와 같이 기존에 사용하는 보철물이 환부를 모두 열어 수술함으로써 발생하는 제반 문제점을 일소할 수 있는 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물을 제공코자 하는 것으로써,In the present invention, to provide a prosthesis for spinal spine protrusions that can eliminate all the problems caused by the operation of the existing prosthesis to open the affected area as described above,

본 발명은 특히 환부를 다 열지 않고 부분적인 절개로 관을 넣어서 시술할 수 있는 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물을 제공하여 흉터의 크기를 줄이고 근육의 손상을 방지하며 가시돌기 사이에 정상적으로 존재하는 인대를 보존할 수 있는 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물을 제공함에 발명의 기술적 과제를 두고 본 발명을 완성한 것이다.
The present invention particularly provides a spinal spinal prosthesis prosthesis that can be operated by inserting a tube in a partial incision without opening the affected area, thereby reducing scar size, preventing muscle damage, and preserving ligaments normally present between spinous processes. The present invention has been completed with the technical problem of providing the prosthesis for spinal spinous process insertion.

본 발명에서 제공하는 다양한 구성을 갖는 보철물(1)은 환자의 척추 가시돌기(3) 상간에 시술할 경우는 도 16a 내지 도 16f에서 보는 바와 같이 순차적인 시술과정을 시술하게 되는 것이다.Prosthesis (1) having a variety of configurations provided by the present invention is to perform a sequential procedure as shown in Figure 16a to 16f when the procedure between the spine spine 3 of the patient.

즉, 환자를 엎드리게 한 후 긴 바늘(21)을 시술할 가시돌기(3) 사이에 밀어 넣고, 바늘(21)안으로 긴 철사(22)를 넣어서 유지시킨 후, 바늘(21)을 분리한다. 상기 철사(22)를 따라 절개확장기(dilator; 23)를 넣어서 시술할 공간을 확보한다.That is, after the patient is lying down, the long needle 21 is pushed between the spinous processes 3 to be operated, the long wire 22 is inserted into the needle 21 and held therein, and then the needle 21 is removed. A dilator 23 is inserted along the wire 22 to secure a space for the procedure.

절개확장기(23)를 빼고 동일한 정도의 두께를 가진 시술관(16)을 밀어 넣고 철사(22)를 분리한다. 그리고 본 발명의 다양한 보철물(1)을 가시돌기(3) 상에 밀어 넣어서 버클링(5)으로 이탈이 되지 않도록 고정하면 되는 것이다.Remove the incision expander (23) and push the surgical tube 16 of the same thickness and remove the wire (22). Then, the various prostheses 1 of the present invention may be pushed onto the barbed protrusions 3 so as not to be separated by the buckle 5.

위와 같은 시술방법을 통하여 척추 가시돌기에 삽입 시술되는 본 발명의 다양한 보철물(1)에 대하여 이하에 보다 상세히 설명키로 한다.Various prostheses 1 of the present invention to be inserted into spinal spinous process through the above-described method will be described in more detail below.

도 1은 본 발명에서 제공하는 척추 가시돌기 삽입용 보철물(1)의 일실시예가 적용된 척추부위의 정면도이며, 도 2는 이의 측단면도 등으로서, 이들 도면과 함께 본 발명을 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.1 is a front view of the spinal region to which an embodiment of the spinal spinous process inserting prosthesis 1 provided in the present invention is applied, and FIG. 2 is a side cross-sectional view thereof, and the like. .

본 발명의 보철물(1)은 시술자의 환부를 모두 절개하지 않고 일부만 절개하여 시술토록 한 보철물(1)을 제공함에 특징이 있는 것으로서, 이를 위하여 본 발명은 척추(2)의 가시돌기(3) 사이에 삽입되어 허리를 뒤로 젖히는 운동이 일어날 때 운동 폭을 제한하게 된다.The prosthesis (1) of the present invention is characterized in that it provides a prosthesis (1) for the procedure by cutting only a part of the operator's incision without cutting all of the affected part, for this purpose, the present invention is between the spinous process (3) of the spine (2) When inserted into the lower back movement to limit the exercise width.

즉, 가시돌기(3) 사이에 삽입되어 상하 가시돌기(3)의 거리가 좁아지는 것을 막아줄 수 있도록 탄성재(고무재, 실리콘 등) 내지는 강성이 있는 소재(합성수지재 등)로 이루어지는 간격유지부(4)와, 상기 간격유지부(4)가 가시돌기(3) 상에 개재되었을 시에 빠지지 않도록 양단에는 버클링(5)이 형성된 보철물(1)로 이루어진다.That is, the gap is made of an elastic material (rubber material, silicone, etc.) or a rigid material (synthetic resin material, etc.) to be inserted between the spinous processes 3 to prevent the distance between the upper and lower spinous processes 3 from narrowing. The prosthesis 1 having the buckle ring 5 is formed at both ends of the portion 4 and the gap maintaining portion 4 so as not to fall out when interposed on the spinous process 3.

상기 간격유지부(4)는 도 3a에서 보는 바와 같이 완충력을 증대시키기 위하여 챔버(4a)를 형성하여 기체나 액체 등을 내입할 수도 있다.As shown in FIG. 3A, the gap maintaining unit 4 may form a chamber 4a to increase a buffering force, thereby introducing gas or liquid.

그리고 상기한 버클링(5)의 형상은 도 3과 같이 가시돌기(3) 사이를 유연성을 가지고 있어서 약간의 힘에 의해 밀려들어간 후 다시 빠지지 않도록 걸리게 한 것이 특징이며, 버클링(5)의 모양은 도 4a 내지 도 4c에서 보는 바와 같이 산형이나 구형 등 다양한 형상으로 변경 실시할 수 있음은 물론이다.And the shape of the buckling (5) is characterized in that it has a flexibility between the spinous process (3) as shown in Figure 3 so as not to fall again after being pushed in by a small force, the shape of the buckling (5) As shown in Figures 4a to 4c it can be changed to a variety of shapes, such as mountain or sphere.

그리고 보철물(1)의 재료가 탄력이 큰 고무재 등으로 만들어 질 경우는 시술 을 위한 조작 시 물렁물렁해서 조절을 할 수 없는 문제가 생길 수 있으므로 버클링(5) 구조를 강화하거나 탄력을 증가시키기 위해서 도 5a 내지 도 5c와 같이 탄성이 상이한 보강재(6)를 간격유지부(4)와 버클링(5) 내부에 횡으로 형성하거나, 버클링(5)의 단부에만 형성하는 것도 가능하고, 그리고 간격유지부(4)와 버클링(5) 단부에 동시에 형성할 수도 있는 것이다.And if the material of the prosthesis (1) is made of a rubber material with a large elasticity, there may be a problem that can not be adjusted because of fluctuations during the operation for the procedure to strengthen the buckle (5) structure or increase the elasticity 5A to 5C, the reinforcing member 6 having different elasticity may be formed laterally in the gap retaining portion 4 and the buckle 5, or only at the end of the buckle 5, and It may be formed at the same time at the gap holding portion 4 and the end of the buckle (5).

한편, 상기 버클링(5)은 도 6a, 6b에서와 같이 시술과 동시에 팽창하여 좀 더 확실한 고정효과를 얻을 수 있도록 할 수도 있다.On the other hand, the buckle 5 may be expanded at the same time as the procedure as shown in Figure 6a, 6b can be obtained a more certain fixing effect.

즉, 보철물(1)을 구성하는 버클링(5)의 보강재(6) 외부에 신축 가능한 튜브체(7)를 형성하여, 상기 튜브체(7)가 형성하는 내부 챔버(8)에 끓는점이 인체 보다 낮은 액체, 예를 들면 에틸에테르(ethyl ether)를 내입한다.That is, the flexible tube body 7 is formed outside the reinforcement 6 of the buckle ring 5 constituting the prosthesis 1, and the boiling point in the internal chamber 8 formed by the tube body 7 is a human body. Lower liquids such as ethyl ether are incorporated.

상기 에틸에테르는 끓는점이 34°로 시술 전에는 냉장고에 보관하였다가 시술을 할 시에 꺼내서 인체에 삽입하게 되면 시술이 끝나면서 체온에 의해 데워진 에틸에테르는 기체로 바뀌게 되고, 기체로 부풀어 오른 양끝 버클링(5)은 보다 견고하게 보철물(1)의 이탈을 방지할 수 있는 것이다.The ethyl ether is stored in the refrigerator before the procedure at a boiling point of 34 ° and is taken out during the procedure and inserted into the human body. When the procedure is finished, the ethyl ether warmed by the body temperature is changed to a gas, and both ends of the gas buckle (inflated with gas). 5) can more firmly prevent the departure of the prosthesis (1).

이러한 튜브체(7) 내부에 챔버(8)를 갖는 버클링(5)은 또 다른 실시예로 도 7에서 보는 바와 같이 좌우 버클링(5)에 형성된 챔버(8)를 간격유지부(4)상으로 형성된 연통공(9)을 형성하여 상호 연통구성하고, 일측 챔버(8) 내부에 압력을 가하면 팽창하여 터질 수 있는 캡슐(10)을 투입한다.Buckling (5) having a chamber (8) inside the tube body (7) is another embodiment as shown in Figure 7 spaced apart from the chamber (8) formed in the left and right buckle (5) It forms a communication hole (9) formed in the form of communication with each other, and when the pressure is applied to the inside of one chamber (8) is injected into the capsule 10 that can expand and burst.

그리고 챔버(8)와 캡슐(10)에는 각각 화학반응하여 기체를 발생시킬 수 있는 내용물(재료A+재료B=반응물C+반응물D)을 각각 투입, 밀봉토록 하여 시술 후 캡슐(10)에 압력을 가하여 터트리면 각각 다른 내용물이 혼합되면서 화학반응하여 기체를 발생시켜 튜브체(7)를 팽창시킬 수 있도록 한 것이다. 상기 챔버(8)내의 캡슐(10)은 연통공(9)으로 좌우 챔버(8)를 연통시키지 않고 독립적인 좌우 챔버(8)로 형성하여 각각의 챔버(8)에 캡슐(10)을 별도 투입할 수도 있는 것이다.In addition, the chamber 8 and the capsule 10 are each chemically reacted with contents (material A + material B = reactant C + reactant D) capable of generating gas, and sealed to each other to apply pressure to the capsule 10 after the procedure. When burst, the different contents are mixed to generate a gas by chemical reaction to expand the tube body (7). The capsule 10 in the chamber 8 is formed as an independent left and right chamber 8 without communicating the left and right chambers 8 with the communication holes 9 and separately encapsulated the capsule 10 in each chamber 8. You can do it.
