Abstract

This special bone screw comprises threads at both ends of the screw. At one end of the screw which is intended to be inserted into the corresponding part of the bone, there is a coarse bone thread for spongy or cortical tissues (Fig. 1c). At the other end of the bone screw, designed for securing to supporting components of the external system fixer, is cut an ISO metric thread (a). This threaded end of the bone screw provides great stability in securing the bone screws by means of locknuts in securing the bone screws. By converting the rotating movement of the nuts into a linear movement of the bone screw, additonal facilities for repositioning the bone fragments is attained (Fig. 10).

Description

DOPPELGEWINDEENDIGE KNOCHENSCHRAUBE FÜR DIE ANWENDUNG IN DER MEDIZIN BEI DER TRANSOSSALE OSTEOSYNTHESE IN DEN TEILBEREICHEN UNFALLCHIRUR¬ GIE, TRAUMATOLOGIE UND ORTHOPÄDIE.DOUBLE-THREADED BONE SCREW FOR USE IN MEDICINE IN TRANSOSSAL OSTEOSYNTHESIS IN THE SUB-AREAS OF ACCIDENT SURGERY, TRAUMATOLOGY AND ORTHOPEDICS.
Die Doppelgewindeendige Knochenschraube dient für die Befestigung der Knochenfragmente an entsprechenden Elementen von verschiedenen Fixateur Externen Systemen (uni-/ bilateralen, Ramen, Ring usw.) sowie dadurch entstehende zusätzliche Repositionsmöglichkeit von Knochenfragmenten.The double-threaded bone screw is used to attach the bone fragments to the corresponding elements of various external fixator systems (unilateral / bilateral, ramen, ring, etc.) and the additional possibility of reducing bone fragments.
Es sind schon verschiedene Arten von Knochenschrauben bekannt, die ein spezielles Knochengewinde (Spongiosa oder Corticalis) aber nur auf einem Ende der Schrauben besitzen, welche in das Knochenfragment direkt eingeführt werden.Various types of bone screws are already known which have a special bone thread (cancellous bone or corticalis) but only on one end of the screws, which are inserted directly into the bone fragment.
Mit dem anderem glattem Ende werden Knochenschrauben an verschiedene Halterungselemente wie z.B.:With the other smooth end, bone screws are attached to various mounting elements such as:
Klemmbacken (Orthofix, Heidelberg External Fixation System usw.) Gelenken (AO, Hoffmann, Wagner, Martin Dynofix usw.) Kugelgriff (Ortho Fixateur Externe) usw. - von Fixateur Externe befestigt.Jaws (Orthofix, Heidelberg External Fixation System etc.) Joints (AO, Hoffmann, Wagner, Martin Dynofix etc.) Ball handle (Ortho Fixateur Externe) etc. - attached by Fixateur Externe.
Da diese Halterungselemente noch an tragbare Teile wie Ringe und Stangen des Fixateur Externe befestigt werden müssen, sind sie mei¬ stens kompliziert und monströs aufgebaut und oft gewährleisten sie dadurch nicht die optimale Positionen.Since these mounting elements still have to be attached to portable parts such as rings and rods of the external fixator, they are mostly complicated and monstrous and often do not guarantee the optimal positions.
Die Konstruktion von Halterungselementen gewährleistet auch nicht die ausreichende Stabilität, weil sich diese Befestigungsart am glattem Ende der Knochenschraube im laufe des Heilungsprozesses lang¬ sam löst. Die dadurch verursachten Mikrobewegungen der Knochenschrau¬ be verursachen nicht genügende Stabilität der Fixateur Externe. Durch diesen Vorgang entstehende Konsequenzen und Nachteile folgender Art: Resorption und Osteolyse von Knochenteilen die die Schraube umgeben und die dadurch entstehende Schmerzen und Entzündungen von Weich¬ teilen bis hin zum Knochen (Osteomyelitis), dies könnte unter diesen Umständen auch zur falschen Gelenkbindung führen.The construction of mounting elements also does not ensure sufficient stability, because this type of fastening slowly loosens at the smooth end of the bone screw in the course of the healing process. The micro-movements of the bone screw caused thereby cause insufficient stability of the external fixator. The consequences and disadvantages of this type of the following are: Absorption and osteolysis of parts of the bone surrounding the screw and the resulting pain and inflammation from soft parts to the bone (osteomyelitis), this could also lead to incorrect joint binding under these circumstances.
Hier will die Erfindung Abhilfe schaffen. Die Erfindung, wie sie in den Ansprüchen gekennzeichnet ist,vereinfacht wesentlich die Aufga¬ be der Befestigung der Knochenschraube an entsprechenden Halterungs¬ elementen des Fixateur Externe wie z.B.:The invention seeks to remedy this. The invention, as characterized in the claims, considerably simplifies the task of attaching the bone screw to corresponding holding elements of the external fixator, such as:
Kiembacken, Gelenke, Kugelgriffe usw. von uni- / bilateralen, Rahmen- Systemen sowie Abstandstücken, hohe Muttern mit zusätzlicher Seiten- gewindebohrung, Bushing (Muffe) ebenfalls mit einer Seitengewindeboh- rung, lange Lochplatten mit einem metrischem Gewindeende, um 90 ° - gedrehte Lochplatte usw. vom Ringfixateur durch zusätzliche Sicherung der Befestigungsstabilität mit gegenseitig kontrierten Muttern.Keel jaws, joints, ball handles etc. of unilateral / bilateral, frame systems and spacers, tall nuts with additional side tapped hole, bushing (socket) also with a side tapped hole, long perforated plates with a metric thread end, turned by 90 ° Perforated plate etc. from the ring fixator by additionally securing the fastening stability with mutually controlled nuts.
Durch die Umwandlung der drehenden Momente der Muttern in geradlini¬ ger Bewegung der Knochenschraube kann man zusätzlich streng dosier- und kontrolierbare sowie feinere Repositionen der Knochenfragmente erreichen.By converting the rotating moments of the nuts into a straight line movement of the bone screw, one can additionally achieve strictly metered and controlled as well as finer repositions of the bone fragments.
Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines Beispiels bei der Anwen- düng der Doppelgewindeendigen Knochenschraube zum Beispiel bei einem Unterschenkelknochenbruch im diaphisären Bereich dargestellt.In the following, the invention is illustrated using an example in the application of the double-threaded bone screw, for example in the case of a fracture of the lower leg in the diaphyseal area.
Nach der typischen Operationsvorbereitung - Anästhesie des Patienten und der sterilen Abdeckung des Operationsbereichs, wird eine Hautin- zision ca 1 cm an der ventromedialen Seite des oberen Drittels des Unterschenkels gemacht Fig. 2.After the typical preparation for the operation - anesthesia of the patient and the sterile covering of the operating area, a skin incision is made about 1 cm on the ventromedial side of the upper third of the lower leg, Fig. 2.
Dann werden die Weichteile durch eine Schere bis zum Knochen aufge¬ spreizt Fig. 3.Then the soft parts are spread out to the bone by scissors FIG. 3.
Als nächstes wird das Vorschieben des Trocars mit der Gewebeschutz¬ hülse bis zum Knochen vorgenommen Fig. 4. Nach der Entfernung des Trocars wird der Knochen mit einem Bohrer auf- gebohrt Fig. 5.Next, the trocar is advanced with the tissue protection sleeve to the bone, FIG. 4. After removing the trocar, the bone is drilled out with a drill Fig. 5.
Das Eindrehen der Doppelgewindeendigen Knochenschraube in den Knochen zeigt die Fig. 6.The screwing of the double-threaded bone screw into the bone is shown in FIG. 6.
Analogisch wird die zweite Doppelgewindeendige Knochenschraube ca. 3 cm distal eingesetzt Fig. 7, sowie andere Doppelgewindeendige Knochen¬ schraubenpaare unterhalb der Bruchlinie. Als letzter Schritt werden die Doppelgewindeendigen Knochenschrauben an die Klemmbacken des Fi¬ xateur Externe befestigt und zusätzlich mit Muttern verschraubt. Die endgültige Position zeigt die Fig. 8. Analogously, the second double-threaded bone screw is inserted about 3 cm distally, FIG. 7, as well as other double-threaded bone screw pairs below the fracture line. As a last step, the double-threaded bone screws are fastened to the jaws of the external surgeon and additionally screwed with nuts. The final position is shown in FIG. 8.
