Definitions

  • ORTHOPEDIC IMPIANT This invention relates to an orthopedic prosthetic joint implant used to replace damaged or worn out joints.
  • Co-assigned U.S. Patent No. 5,217,499 discloses a rim-bearing acetabular component of a hip joint prosthesis.
  • the component includes a continuous, circumferential rim that is adapted to contact the prepared rim of the acetabulum of the patient. That prosthesis is held in position by bone screws or cement.

  • British Patent No. 2,134,360 shows a polyethylene acetabular cup having a gapped perimeter that would be cemented into position in bone.
  • Such plastic acetabular cups are cemented in place, and are not designed for cementless fixation to bone.
  • an acetabular implant into the pelvis for a hip replacement may comprise a cup surrounded by a flange which rests on the exposed surface of the prepared bone whilst the cup sits in or is screwed into a prepared recess in the bone. See, e.g., co-assigned U.S. Patent No. 5,217,499 (Shelley) . It is over the flange of such acetabular cups that the bony overgrowth has been found to occur.
  • this invention involves a novel orthopedic prosthetic implant and method in which such bony overgrowth is used to further assist in the fixing and stabilization of the implant.
  • the invention provides an implant that is adapted for cementless affixation in a recess prepared in bone, with the recess in the bone being prepared with a generally flat bone surface surrounding the recess. It is now believed that a relatively thin flange (e.g., less than 3mm thick) having an undulating or scalloped edge facilitates such bony overgrowth. It is also believed that cement should be avoided adjacent such a flange.
  • a novel orthopedic prosthetic implant comprises a support body adapted to be affixed in the recess prepared in the bone without cement, and a flange integral with the support body and extending outwardly from the support body.
  • the flange has a generally flat surface arranged to rest on the surface of the bone surrounding the recess.
  • the flange has an undulating or scalloped edge that defines a width of the flange as varying in a direction around the support body, whereby bony overgrowth over the edge of the flange will trap the flange and so prevent its removal and will also prevent rotation of the flange and implant.
  • the support body and flange are integrally formed of material selected from the group comprising metal, graphite and ceramic material.
  • the support body may comprise a metal cup shell of an acetabular cup, with the flange extending radially or laterally outwardly from the opening of the acetabular cup.

  • a metal flange is provided that is integral with the metal cup shell and extends outwardly from adjacent the rim of the metal cup shell.
  • the metal flange has a generally flat surface arranged to rest on the surface of the bone surrounding the recess.
  • the flange has an undulating or scalloped edge that defines a width of the flange as varying in a direction around the metal cup shell, whereby bony overgrowth over the edge of the flange will trap the flange and so prevent its removal and will also prevent rotation of the flange and thus the acetabular cup.
  • Cementless means is provided in addition to the flange for affixing the acetabular cup to bone.
  • the undulating or scalloped edge of the flange defines a plurality of spaced-apart, teeth-like extensions extending laterally outwardly with respect to the cup shell.
  • Such spaced-apart, teeth-like extensions each may conveniently have a through hole for receiving a bone screw to affix the acetabular cup to bone, in which case the cementless means may comprise a plurality of bone screws received in the through holes in the teeth-like extensions.
  • the spaced-apart, teeth-like extensions are separated from each other by generally rounded, concave edge portions defining the edge of the flange between the teeth-like extensions, the arrangement tending to encourage bony overgrowth adjacent the concave edge portions that tends to prevent rotation of the acetabular cup.
  • the plurality of spaced-apart, teeth-like extensions comprise at least six teeth-like extensions, with all but two of the teeth-like extensions being equally spaced apart, with the spacing between said two teeth-like extensions being substantially greater than the spacing between the other teeth-like extensions.
  • the flange has a thickness no greater than 3mm.
  • the cup shell and flange are formed of material selected from the group comprising metal, graphite and ceramic material.
  • the cup shell is formed of metal, particularly titanium or titanium alloy.
  • a bearing insert formed of synthetic resin material is provided for use with a metal cup shell.
  • the bearing insert is closely received in the cup shell adjacent the inner surface of the cup shell.
  • the bearing insert has a generally concave, generally hemispherical cavity adapted to receive a head of a femoral component of a hip prosthesis.
  • the cementless means may conveniently comprise a plurality of bone screws adapted to be screwed through the acetabular cup into bone.
  • the bone screws may be received in through holes through the cup shell or through the flange.
  • other suitable cementless means may be employed, such as other mechanical fastening means.
  • the cementless means may comprise threaded means formed along the outer surface of the cup shell.
  • a third aspect of the invention involves a method of using an implant.
  • the method generally comprises the following steps: (a) providing an orthopedic prosthetic implant comprising a support body adapted to be affixed in the recess prepared in the bone without cement; and a flange integral with the support body and extending outwardly from the support body, the flange having a generally flat . surface arranged to rest on the surface of the bone surrounding the recess, the flange having an undulating or scalloped edge that defines a width of the flange as varying in a direction around the support body;
  • the invention does extend to other implants, in addition to acetabular cups, where there is potentially a thin and relatively flattish surface interfacing closely with either cut surface of the bone or healthy cortical bone surface.
  • Such interfaces may be achieved on the collars of femoral or humeral components against the cut calcar of the femoral or humeral neck or on bone plates in close apposition to the cortical bone.
  • the bone/implant interfaces of distal femoral knee implants and tibial implants may also be provided with suitable flanges to bring them into accordance with the invention. Further details of the invention are defined in the features of the claims.
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of an orthopedic prosthetic implant of the invention, represented by way of example, as a metal cup shell of a prosthetic acetabular cup.
  • Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the prosthetic acetabular cup of figure 1 also including a bearing insert of synthetic resin material; and
  • Figure 3 is a side elevational view of a second embodiment of the invention, in which screw threads are provided on the outer surface of the acetabular cup.
  • figure 1 shows an outer metal cup shell 10 forming part of an acetabular cup component of a hip joint prosthesis.
  • An implant according to this invention could take the form of other orthopedic prosthetic joint implants, such as for example a femoral hip stem or the humoral component of a shoulder prosthesis.
  • the implant 10 according to this invention preferably is made from metal, and in particular titanium or titanium based alloys.
  • an implant according to the invention can be made of other metals, graphite or ceramics, so long as they are suitable for cementless affixation to bone.
  • the bearing insert 32 is formed of synthetic resin material ("plastics material”) , such as thermoplastic or thermoset material, and preferably ultra high molecular weight polyethylene.
  • plastics material such as thermoplastic or thermoset material
  • the shell 10 has a cavity 12 for the bearing insert 32. Near the bottom of the cavity 12 are provided holes 14, e.g., three as shown, through which suitable screws 25 can pass to fix the implant 10 into a prepared cavity in the bone.
  • a small circular recess 16 is provided in the base of the cavity 12 to receive a corresponding shaped projecting spigot on the bearing inset 32 to locate this positively in place.
  • Co-assigned U.S. Patent No. 5,217,499 (Shelley) discloses a rim-bearing acetabular component including suitable bone screws.
  • the shell 12 has around its upper edge a thin integral flange 20.
  • the flange 20 has a width which is not constant and in fact is of scalloped shape as viewed in the direction of the open face of the shell 12. In the example shown there are six scallops 22, although the flange could be provided with a different number of scallops 22. Between each of the scallops in the widest part of the flange 20 are holes 24 for small screws for initially fixing the flange 20 to bone.
  • the widest parts of the flange 20 may take the form of generally spaced-apart, teeth-like extensions as shown in figure 1, and the scallops 22 may take the form of generally concave arcuate or rounded edge portions 22.
  • the flange 20 and the bone surface against which it is to rest should be as flat as possible so that the two can be in close and firm contact. In this way the flange 20 will press on the bone surface and this pressure will promote the bony overgrowth.
  • the flange 20 should be as thin as possible commensurate with maintaining satisfactory mechanical properties. Generally, therefore, the flange 20 should be no thicker than 3mm and preferably from 1 to 2mm.
  • the flange 20 will normally be substantially circular with the edge of the flange forming a generally an undulating or scalloped shape.
  • the undulations or scalloping provides the required variation in the width of the flange 20, so preventing rotation of the implant 10 once the bone has grown over the edge of the flange 20.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates an alternate embodiment of the acetabular cup, herein designated 40, which is similar in most respects to acetabular cup 10.
  • Acetabular cup 40 includes an external, self-tapping screw thread 44.
  • Acetabular cup 40 includes a flange 42 that is substantially identical to the flange 20 of metal cup shell 10.
  • Co-assigned U.S. Patent No. 4,997,447 discloses a suitable external, self-tapping screw thread on an acetabular cup.
  • an advantage of an implant 10 or 40 according to the invention over one having a porous surface or coating to promote bony ingrowth is that the expensive porous surface can be avoided.
  • a porous surface of coating could be combined with this invention.
  • the porous surface disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,608,052 and 4,673,409 could be employed in an implant having a flange with a scalloped edge.
  • Another example of a suitable porous surface is shown in British Patent No. 2,181,354.
  • the implant 10 or 40 can be machined to provide the required flange 20 or 42 as part of the normal manufacturing procedure for the implant 10 or 40 so reducing the cost of the implant 10 or 40 whilst still retaining the advantages of non-cemented stabilization.

Abstract

On décrit un implant orthopédique prothétique, tel qu'une coupe acétabulaire ou une tige de hanche fémorale, pourvu d'une bride (20; 42) dont le périmètre (22) présente une forme ondulée ou échancrée. L'implant est destiné à être implanté sans colle, et le périmètre (22) de forme ondulée ou échancrée autorise la croissance osseuse assurant le blocage en position de l'implant et empêchant sa rotation. On peut également utiliser des fixations mécaniques, telles que des vis (25) ou des fils (44), sur la surface externe d'une coupe acétabulaire.
