Definitions
- the present invention relates to orthopaedic implants, and, more particularly, to knee implants.
- the knee is a common site of orthopaedic problems in patients that require surgery.
- the cartilage in the knee is especially vulnerable to injury throughout a patient's lifetime and generally does not repair itself like other tissues in the body.
- the cartilage in a knee is damaged or destroyed, the femur and tibia, which are normally separated and lubricated by the cartilage, can rub together, which causes various problems.
- a knee implant is usually implanted into the patient on a prepared surface of either the femur or tibia. Knee implants typically have an articulating surface that simulates the body's natural cartilage, allowing the femur and tibia to stay connected and glide relative to each other as they would if healthy cartilage was present.
- Bone cement is a popular adhesive choice because it forms a good interface with the bone and has good biocompatibility. There are several advantages that could be gained from reducing the use of bone cement to fixate a knee implant to the prepared bone surface. Bone cement has a putty-like consistency and is prone to spreading during surgery. When the surgeon presses the knee implant on to the bone cement on the prepared bone surface, there is a risk of bone cement squeezing out from between the knee implant and the prepared bone surface if an excessive amount of bone cement or pressing force is applied. This loose bone cement is usually removed during surgery, which prolongs the surgery.
- the present invention provides knee implants that take advantage of natural bone ingrowth or tensile forces to reduce or eliminate the need for bone cement.
- the invention in one form is directed to an orthopaedic implant that includes an articulating tray, a support tray connected to the articulating tray, and a bone ingrowth layer connected to the support tray.
- the articulating tray has an articulating surface and an interface surface that is opposed to the articulating surface.
- the support tray has a first connecting surface connected to the interface surface and a second connecting surface connected to the bone ingrowth layer.
- the invention in another form is directed to an orthopaedic implant that includes an articulating component and a body component connected to the articulating component.
- the articulating component has an articulating surface and an interface surface that is opposed to the articulating surface.
- the body component has a first surface connected to the interface surface, a second surface opposed to the first surface, and at least one protrusion. The protrusion extends away from the second surface and is configured to be biased toward an anatomy structure by a tensile force.
- the invention in yet another form is directed to a method of implanting an orthopaedic implant that includes an articulating component with an articulating surface and an interface surface opposed to the articulating surface, and a body component with a first surface connected to the interface surface, a second surface opposed to the first surface and at least one protrusion that extends away from the second surface.

- an orthopaedic implant 30 which generally includes an articulating tray 32 , a support tray 34 connected to the articulating tray 32 , and a bone ingrowth layer 36 connected to the support tray 34 .
- the articulating tray 32 has an articulating surface 38 that is shaped to be contacted by either a femur or tibia when the implant 30 is placed within a patient.
- the articulating surface 38 can be shaped to have a concave portion 40 where a head of a femur or tibia will make contact with the articulating surface 38 during implantation.
- the concave portion 40 allows the head to glide smoothly across the articulating surface 38 during movement of the femur and tibia.
- An interface surface 42 (shown in FIG. 2 ) is a surface of the articulating tray 32 that is opposite the articulating surface 38 .
- the interface surface 42 can be a flat surface or can have features (not shown) formed on the surface 42 that allow the articulating tray 32 to removably connect to the support tray 34 .
- FIG. 1 shows the articulating tray 32 being irreversibly attached to the support tray 34 while FIG. 2 shows the articulating tray 32 being reversibly attachable to the support tray 34 .
- a polymer retention layer 44 can be attached to the interface surface 42 and support tray 34 to promote a better attachment of the articulating tray 32 to the support tray 34 .
- the articulating tray 32 can be made from any material suitable for providing an articulating surface 38 that simulates a patient's natural cartilage.
- a widely used material for such an application is ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE), but other biocompatible polymers and metals could also be used.
- a support tray 34 is connected to the interface surface 42 of the articulating tray 32 and has a first connecting surface 46 that connects to the interface surface, and a second connecting surface (not seen) that is opposed to the first connecting surface 46 .
- the support tray 34 is configured to be a complementary shape to the articulating tray 32 to provide good attachment between the two components.
- the support tray 34 provides additional rigidity and support to the articulating tray 32 , which is typically thinner and made of lower strength material(s) than the support tray 34 .
- the first connecting surface 46 can either attach directly to the interface surface 42 , or be attached to the polymer retention layer 44 which will connect the first connecting surface 46 to the interface surface 42 , especially in the case that irreversible attachment is desired. As shown in FIG.
- the first connecting surface 46 can be formed as a recess within the support tray 34 to allow the articulating tray 32 to snap in to the recess and attach to the support tray 34 .
- the support tray 34 lends strength to the articulating tray 32 , and can be made of any appropriate material(s) for this purpose including titanium, stainless steel, cobalt chrome, hardened polymers and ceramics.

- the bone ingrowth layer 36 is shaped to be complementary to a prepared section of the femur or tibia where the implant 30 will be fixated.
- the bone ingrowth layer is porous and can have a roughened outer surface 48 , which will provide immediate fixation to the prepared section through frictional forces caused by the abrasiveness of the roughened outer surface 48 .
- Pores 50 can be formed throughout the bone ingrowth layer 36 to allow for bone tissue ingrowth into the layer 36 .
- the pores 50 should be sized, shaped and distributed throughout the layer 36 to allow for the desired amount of bone tissue ingrowth, which will provide the fixation necessary for the implant 30 to stay attached to the femur or tibia in the absence of bone cement or other attachment features.
- the pores 50 can also have biologically active substances, such as growth factors, placed within to encourage bone tissue growth into the pores 50 .
- Other biologically active substances that can be included in the pores 50 include anti-inflammatories, antibiotics, painkillers, anti-rejection drugs and other medically useful substances.
- the bone ingrowth layer 36 can be formed from a variety of materials. Materials that have been found to be particularly useful for forming the bone ingrowth layer 36 include titanium, cobalt-chrome, stainless steel, polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and hydroxyapatite.
- FIG. 3 a cross-sectional view of the implant 30 previously described is shown implanted in a tibia 52 .
- Protrusions 54 , 56 are formed in the implant 30 and rest inside bores 58 , 60 formed in the tibia 52 .
- the implant 30 is shown with the bone ingrowth layer 36 attached, it is also contemplated that the bone ingrowth layer 36 can be removed if the implant 30 has the protrusions 54 , 56 included.
- the protrusions 54 , 56 are angled relative to the support tray 34 and can provide some fixation for the implant 30 while resting inside the bores 58 , 60 before bone tissue ingrowth has begun in the bone ingrowth layer 36 .
- protrusion 56 is shown as solid, protrusion 54 has a bore 62 formed within and a pair of lips 64 , 66 formed near an entrance 68 of the bore 62 .
- the bore 62 allows for a tensioning member 70 , shown as a compression screw, to be inserted and provide a tensile force to the protrusion 54 that will bias the implant 30 toward the tibia 52 .
- Mating features 72 on the screw 70 lock in with the lips 64 , 66 to keep the screw 70 locked to the protrusion 54 .
- the screw 70 can be advanced away from the implant 30 , which provides the tensile force to the protrusion 54 that biases the implant 30 toward the tibia 52 .
- the protrusions 54 and 56 can be formed as an integral part of the implant 30 or as an attachment to the implant 30 .
- the protrusion 54 can be formed of any materials capable of withstanding the tensile force provided to the protrusion 54 , which will be similar to the materials used to create the support layer 34 .

- the internal screw 84 has an elongated support portion 86 connected to a main body 88 with a bore 90 formed within to interact with a torqueing device and threads 92 formed on the surface to interact with the inner threading 82 .
- the elongated support portion 86 is held within a separation gap 94 between the mating features 72 , preventing collapse of the mating features 72 and maintaining the separation gap 94 .
- the implant 30 with screw 70 inserted is shown without the internal screw 84 advanced within the inner chamber 80 .
- the internal screw 84 there is nothing to keep the mating features 72 separated so they can freely move toward each other. This allows the screw 70 to be advanced toward the bore 62 of the protrusion 54 until the mating features 72 are pushed into the bore 62 . Tapering of the mating features 72 allows the lips 64 , 66 to push the mating features 72 toward each other as the screw 70 is advanced into the bore 62 and the mating features 72 to snap out when the tapering advances beyond the lips 64 , 66 , providing an abutment of the mating features 72 to the lips 64 , 66 .
- This abutment allows for tension to be transmitted to the protrusion 54 as the screw 70 is advanced away from the implant 30 .
- the internal screw 84 is advanced so that the elongated support portion 86 occupies the separation gap 94 between the mating features 72 , preventing their collapse as the screw 70 is advanced away from the implant 30 . If so desired, the internal screw 84 can be removed from the screw 70 so that the screw 70 can be taken out of the bore 62 .

- the elongated protrusion 116 fits into a bore formed in a tibia 122 to help balance the tension that is applied to the first protrusion 114 and second protrusion. As shown in FIG. 9 , when the implant 110 is fully installed, there will be a pair of screws 118 holding the implant 110 tensioned to the tibia 122 .
