Description

DESCRIPTION
DISTRACTOR TO USE IN EXTENSION OPERATIONS OF HAND AND JAW
BONES TECHNICAL FIELD
Invention is about extension operation of bones which is an important part of movement system to maintain the human life. It is about a distractor to use in the shortness of hand, finger and jaw bones and extension of bones in that area.
PRIOR ART
Distraction period is the time period that pulling force is applied to the bones that diverged with osteotomy. In this period, bone pieces slowly detract from each other to let the new bones fill that gap. During the osteodistraction, normal progression of healing of the fracture, is distrupted by the pulling force that applied to the soft callus. The stress that occured on the slightly strecthed tissues, causes changes on cellular and subcellular level. That changes can be evaluated as growth stimulation and shaping effect. The formation of the new tissue, develops parallel to pulling vector. When the distraction starts, the fibrosis tissue of soft callus starts to condense around the distraction axis. Fibroblast like cells, which are in the collagen fibers, also arrange in an order of the distraction direction.
In between the third and seventh days of distraction, capillary vessels move into the fibrosis tissue. By this way, vascular web expands on the surfaces of two neighbour bones, not only to the center. In the second week of the distraction, primary trabeculas start to develop. Osteoblasts that localized along the collagen fibrils, release the osteoid material on these fibrils. On the existing bone walls, osteogenezis starts and move towards to the distraction cavity center. At the end of the second week, osteoid material starts to mineralize.
In the center of the distraction cavity, where pulling forces are maximum, slightly mineralized, radiolucent fibrosis interzone can be observed. This area constitutes an origin for the fibroblast proliferation and fibrosis tissue development. Fibrosis and cartilage mixed tissue in this area, shows that- membranous and endochondral ostosis is important while the distraction. Bone development occurs along the pulling vector and continues during the distraction period.
The apparatus called distractor usable in extension operations of finger and jaw bones, while in usage, stays two or three times more than the operation time in the operation area and is not removed after the extension ended. This duration is called consolidation time. Consolidation time is necessary for new bone development and full ostosis in the extension area. In previous distractors, after the extension procedure, distractor has to stay in the distraction area and this effects patience's comfort and daily life quality in the negative way. Besides that, the bigness of the outside part of the distractor limits the daily activities of patiences.
In the craniofacial distraction, generally two types of apparatuses are used according to distractor's localization. These are, extraosseous (external parts of the bone) and intraosseous (internal parts of the bone) apparatuses. Apparatuses for external parts of the bone; has a pretty big size. It has parts which makes rotation, placed from oral mucosa to the oral cavity. For that reason, it has risks of infection from oral cavity. Besides, for the apparatus for external parts of the bone, the bone that will be distracted must be at least 6-7 mm width for placing the distractor without a fracture. The apparatuses for the internal parts of the bone are smaller. One of the biggest advantages of these, implants can be placed in the distractor hole. And this can cause problems for primary stability in the implant. The biggest disadvantage of the distractors for the inner part of the bone is the loss of the new developed callus while the removal.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The mainly problem in the bone extension procedures, is keeping the extension apparatus called distractor, for a long period of time in that area and depending on that, reducing the comfort of the patience and also it is open for trauma for being an exterior apparatus. With the described invention, distractor works with a mechanism which is bonded to the bone and meanwhile only a rod comes out for the stretch. At the end of the extension procedure, that rod can be removed without waiting consolidation process is to be over and the patience can do the daily activities easily.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Invention is characterized by; a plaque (1) which has at least one fixing hole (1.1), joint system (2), a movement mechanism (3) consists rail (3.1), gear (3.2), infinite screw (3.3), rod (3.4), stretch arm (3.5) and a pin (4).
There are at least two plaques (1) on the distractor which are fasten with the fixing holes to the bone during the extension procedure. Joint system (2) is used for the proper positioning of the plaques (1) for fixing to the bone. Movement mechanism (3) is a part; that provides the reverse movement of the plaques (1 ) to each other. With the advantage of blocking reverse movement feature of the infinite screw (3.3); during the distraction, the movement of the plaques (1 ) towards to each other can certainly be blocked. The rail (3.1 ) in the movement mechanism (3); is the piece which provides the movement in the horizantal plane and makes the bedding of the plaques (1 ) during the distraction. Gear (3.2), with the group of infinite screw (3.3) and rod (3.4), provides the reverse movement of plaques (1 ) towards each other and the distraction by the force which operator applies with the stretch arm.
The apply of the invention; plaques (1 ) are fixed to the hand or jaw bone which is planning to extend with a screw through the fixing hole (1 .1 ) on the plaque (1 ) and a joint system (2) that has a proper width for the bone. Opened area is closed by the operator. The operations after that, are made with help of the stretch arm (3.5) which is applied to the rod (3.4) that runs the movement mechanism (3). The stretch arm (3.5) will only be applied when the intervention is needed and not having an apparatus with disturbing length on the skin of the operated area, will let the patience continue to his daily life comfortably. In the prior art, the long parts on the skin has to be protected by the patience with an extra ordinary care, because the treatment will be uncompleted if an impact or a hit comes and must start over. The distractor in our invention only has the connection part of the rod (3.4) head to the stretch arm (3.5) outside of the skin. Because of the reduced risk of getting a hit or an impact of that part, the patience's treatment can be completed comfortably and not interrupted.
After the plaque (1 ) is placed, at the end of an reasonable waiting period, the infinite screw (3.3) is rotated by turning the stretch arm (5.3), mounted on rod (3.4) head. By transferring this movement to the gear (3.2), plaques (1 ) starts to glide away in the opposite direction by moving on the rail (3.1 ). By applying this process periodically, the intended extension amount can be reached. With the help of the pins (4) which combine the plaques (1 ) and joint . system (2), the contact of the plaques (1 ) to the bone surface is provided with the optimum angle. Besides, after the bone extension procedure is completed, joint system (2) and movement mechanism (3) can be removed from the under skin by pulling the pins (4) off.
