That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the guide portion 20 has a tube shape having a penetrating portion 28 in which the holding portion 10 is arranged. The guide portion 20 is, for example, a guide cylinder.
 ガイド部20は、第1当接部23および突出部24を有している。ガイド部20は、さらに、第1ガイド部21および第2ガイド部22を有していてもよい。 The guide portion 20 has a first contact portion 23 and a protruding portion 24. The guide unit 20 may further include a first guide unit 21 and a second guide unit 22.
 第1当接部23は、脊椎用インプラント60に形成された側壁部62の頂部69(図2参照)と当接可能である。第1当接部23が脊椎用インプラント60に形成された収容溝63の開口側の端部(すなわち、側壁部62の頂部69)と当接することにより、押圧部材50を安定して収容溝63に取り付けることができる。ここで、第1方向は、保持部10から第1端11に向かう軸方向を意図している。すなわち、第1方向は、第2端12から第1端11に向かう軸方向を意図している。一方、第1方向とは反対の方向を以後「第2方向」と記す場合がある。すなわち、第2方向は、第1端11から第2端12に向かう軸方向を意図している。 The first contact portion 23 can contact the top 69 (see FIG. 2) of the side wall portion 62 formed on the spinal implant 60. The first contact portion 23 abuts on the opening-side end of the accommodation groove 63 formed in the spinal implant 60 (that is, the top 69 of the side wall portion 62), whereby the pressing member 50 is stably held in the accommodation groove 63. Can be attached to. Here, the first direction is intended to be an axial direction from the holding portion 10 toward the first end 11. That is, the first direction is intended to be an axial direction from the second end 12 to the first end 11. On the other hand, the direction opposite to the first direction may be hereinafter referred to as "second direction". That is, the second direction is intended to be an axial direction from the first end 11 to the second end 12.
 この構成によれば、第1当接部23が側壁部62における収容溝63の開口側の端部に当接することで、押圧部材50を安定して収容溝63に取り付けることができる。 According to this configuration, the pressing member 50 can be stably attached to the accommodating groove 63 by abutting the first contact portion 23 with the end portion of the side wall portion 62 on the opening side of the accommodating groove 63.
 突出部24は、板形状を有している第1突出部24aと、第1突出部24aと略平行に配置される、板形状を有している第2突出部24bとから成る。また、第1突出部24aおよび第2突出部24bは側壁部62に当接できる。すなわち、突出部24は、一対の側壁部62の、たがいに対向する一対の面の両方に同時に当接可能であってもよい。この構成によれば、突出部24が側壁部62に当接し、さらに側壁部62に係合することで、脊椎手術用器具1を安定して収容溝63に保持できる。以下、第1突出部24aと第2突出部24bとを区別しない場合、単に突出部24と記す。 The protruding portion 24 includes a first protruding portion 24a having a plate shape and a second protruding portion 24b having a plate shape arranged substantially parallel to the first protruding portion 24a. Further, the first protruding portion 24a and the second protruding portion 24b can come into contact with the side wall portion 62. That is, the protruding portion 24 may be able to come into contact with both of the pair of side wall portions 62 facing each other at the same time. According to this configuration, the protruding portion 24 abuts on the side wall portion 62 and further engages with the side wall portion 62, so that the spinal surgery instrument 1 can be stably held in the accommodating groove 63. Hereinafter, when the first protruding portion 24a and the second protruding portion 24b are not distinguished, they are simply referred to as the protruding portion 24.
 突出部24は、凹部27を有していてもよい。凹部27は、収容溝63に収容されている固定ロッド70と当接可能な凹部である。この構成によれば、ガイド部20の第1当接部23が側壁部62に当接し、突出部24が収容溝63の壁の間に係合し、さらに、突出部24の凹部27が固定ロッド70と当接する。これにより、脊椎手術用器具1を操作する医師は、突出部24によって固定ロッド70を収容溝63の内部へ抑え込むことができる。よって、医師は脊椎手術用器具1を用いて、押圧部材50によって固定ロッド70を脊椎用インプラント60に設けられた収容溝63に簡便かつ円滑に固定することができる。 The protrusion 24 may have a recess 27. The recess 27 is a recess that can come into contact with the fixing rod 70 housed in the storage groove 63. According to this configuration, the first contact portion 23 of the guide portion 20 abuts on the side wall portion 62, the protrusion 24 engages between the walls of the accommodating groove 63, and the recess 27 of the protrusion 24 is fixed. It comes into contact with the rod 70. As a result, the doctor who operates the spinal surgery instrument 1 can hold the fixing rod 70 inside the accommodating groove 63 by the protrusion 24. Therefore, the doctor can easily and smoothly fix the fixing rod 70 to the accommodation groove 63 provided in the spinal implant 60 by the pressing member 50 by using the spinal surgery instrument 1.
 貫通部28は、ガイド部20の第1方向から第2方向へ貫通する穴である。貫通部28は、その中を、保持部10が貫通する。 The penetration portion 28 is a hole that penetrates the guide portion 20 from the first direction to the second direction. The holding portion 10 penetrates through the penetrating portion 28.
 保持部10は、第1当接部23が脊椎用インプラント60に形成された側壁部62の頂部69と当接した状態で、ガイド部20に対して軸方向に沿って変位できる。軸方向とは、保持部10の第1端と第2端とを結ぶ線に平行な方向を意図している。この構成によれば、第1当接部23が側壁部62の頂部69に当接した状態を保ちつつ、保持部10がガイド部20に対して軸方向に動くことができる。これにより、脊椎手術用器具1を用いて手術する医師は、押圧部材50を収容溝63に正確に取り付けることができる。 The holding portion 10 can be displaced along the axial direction with respect to the guide portion 20 in a state where the first contact portion 23 is in contact with the top portion 69 of the side wall portion 62 formed on the spinal implant 60. The axial direction is intended to be a direction parallel to the line connecting the first end and the second end of the holding portion 10. According to this configuration, the holding portion 10 can move in the axial direction with respect to the guide portion 20 while maintaining the state in which the first contact portion 23 is in contact with the top portion 69 of the side wall portion 62. As a result, the doctor who operates using the spinal surgery instrument 1 can accurately attach the pressing member 50 to the accommodating groove 63.
 第1当接部23が脊椎用インプラント60に形成された側壁部62の頂部69と当接した状態で、脊椎手術用器具1に第1方向への力が加えられた場合、ガイド部20は第2方向へ後退する。ガイド部20が、第2方向へ後退することによって、保持部10において保持された押圧部材50は、収容溝63に向けて移動する。 When a force is applied to the spinal surgical instrument 1 in the first direction while the first contact portion 23 is in contact with the top 69 of the side wall portion 62 formed on the spinal implant 60, the guide portion 20 Retreat in the second direction. When the guide portion 20 retracts in the second direction, the pressing member 50 held by the holding portion 10 moves toward the accommodating groove 63.
 このようなガイド部20を有する脊椎手術用器具1を用いて手術を行う医師は、保持部10に保持されている押圧部材50の位置決めを容易に行い、押圧部材50を収容溝63に正確に取り付けることができる。 A doctor who performs an operation using a spinal surgery instrument 1 having such a guide portion 20 can easily position the pressing member 50 held by the holding portion 10 and accurately position the pressing member 50 in the accommodating groove 63. Can be attached.
 従来の器具は、収容溝63の壁を形成する側壁部62の外側に係合するガイド部が適用されていた。それゆえ、従来の器具のガイド部は、脊椎用インプラント60の一対の側壁部62を覆うことが可能な大きさよりも小さくすることができなかった。脊椎手術用器具1は、上記のようなガイド部20を採用することによって、ガイド部20のサイズを従来の器具に比べて小さくすることができる。よって、患者への負担がより軽い低侵襲手術に適した脊椎手術用器具1を提供することができる。 In the conventional instrument, a guide portion that engages with the outside of the side wall portion 62 that forms the wall of the accommodating groove 63 has been applied. Therefore, the guide portion of the conventional instrument could not be smaller than the size capable of covering the pair of side wall portions 62 of the spinal implant 60. By adopting the guide portion 20 as described above, the spinal surgery instrument 1 can reduce the size of the guide portion 20 as compared with the conventional instrument. Therefore, it is possible to provide a spinal surgery instrument 1 suitable for minimally invasive surgery, which has a lighter burden on the patient.
 収容溝63の幅、すなわち一対の側壁部62の間の距離は、固定ロッド70の直径に合わせて設計されていてもよい。それゆえ、使用される固定ロッド70の太さが同じであれば、標準スクリュー、リダクションスクリュー、およびコネクタ67における収容溝63の幅、すなわち一対の側壁部62の間の距離は略同じである。 The width of the accommodating groove 63, that is, the distance between the pair of side wall portions 62 may be designed according to the diameter of the fixed rod 70. Therefore, if the thickness of the fixed rod 70 used is the same, the width of the accommodating groove 63 in the standard screw, the reduction screw, and the connector 67, that is, the distance between the pair of side wall portions 62 is substantially the same.
 ガイド部20は、一対の側壁部62の間に突出部24が係合する構成を有している。それゆえ、ガイド部20は、脊椎用インプラント60が同じ直径の固定ロッド70を用いる場合は、標準スクリュー、リダクションスクリュー、およびコネクタ67のいずれに対しても適合し得る。 The guide portion 20 has a configuration in which the protruding portion 24 is engaged between the pair of side wall portions 62. Therefore, the guide portion 20 may be compatible with any of the standard screw, reduction screw, and connector 67 if the spinal implant 60 uses a fixed rod 70 of the same diameter.
 第1ガイド部21は、略円筒形状であってもよい。一方、手術時に脊椎用インプラントに近い位置に配される第2ガイド部22は、保持部10が中を貫通する多角形柱形状の管であってよい。一例において、第2ガイド部22は、形状が四角柱形状の管であってもよい。また、第2ガイド部22は、第1ガイド部21よりも細く形成されていてもよい。これにより、ガイド部20の太さを細くすることができる。よって、患者への負担がより軽い低侵襲手術に適した脊椎手術用器具1を提供できる。また、ガイド部を細くすることによって、脊椎手術用器具1を用いて手術を行う医師の視界をできるだけ広く確保することができる。 The first guide portion 21 may have a substantially cylindrical shape. On the other hand, the second guide portion 22 arranged at a position close to the spinal implant at the time of surgery may be a polygonal pillar-shaped tube through which the holding portion 10 penetrates. In one example, the second guide portion 22 may be a pipe having a quadrangular prism shape. Further, the second guide portion 22 may be formed thinner than the first guide portion 21. As a result, the thickness of the guide portion 20 can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to provide a spinal surgery instrument 1 suitable for minimally invasive surgery, which has a lighter burden on the patient. Further, by making the guide portion thin, it is possible to secure the wide field of view of the doctor who performs the operation using the spinal surgery instrument 1.
 また、第2ガイド部22は、第1開口部25および第2開口部26が形成されていてもよい。第1開口部25および第2開口部26は、第2ガイド部22の中を貫通する保持部10の様子を第2ガイド部22の外側から視認可能な窓として機能する。押圧部材50は、傾斜させずに、正しい姿勢で収容溝63にねじ込まれる必要がある。第1開口部25および第2開口部26が形成されていることにより、医師は、保持部10に保持された押圧部材50の姿勢を容易に確認することができる。 Further, the second guide portion 22 may be formed with a first opening 25 and a second opening 26. The first opening 25 and the second opening 26 function as windows in which the state of the holding portion 10 penetrating through the second guide portion 22 can be visually recognized from the outside of the second guide portion 22. The pressing member 50 needs to be screwed into the accommodating groove 63 in the correct posture without being tilted. Since the first opening 25 and the second opening 26 are formed, the doctor can easily confirm the posture of the pressing member 50 held by the holding portion 10.
 [ロック部30]
 次に、ロック部30の構成および機能について、図9を用いて説明する。図9は、ロック部30の一例を示す斜視図である。
[Lock unit 30]
Next, the configuration and function of the lock portion 30 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing an example of the lock portion 30.
 ロック部30は、保持部10が中を貫通する管形状を有している。ロック部30は、例えばロックシリンダーである。ロック部30は、ガイド部20より第2端12に近い位置に配される。ロック部30は、ガイド部20が保持部10から離脱することを防ぐ。 The lock portion 30 has a tube shape through which the holding portion 10 penetrates. The lock portion 30 is, for example, a lock cylinder. The lock portion 30 is arranged at a position closer to the second end 12 than the guide portion 20. The lock portion 30 prevents the guide portion 20 from being separated from the holding portion 10.
 ここで、ロック部30および、ロック部30に当接可能な第2当接部13について、図4を用いて説明する。第2当接部13は、ロック部30に当接した状態で、ガイド部20を第1方向に付勢する。医師は把持部40を操作することにより、ガイド部20を保持部10に対して第2方向に移動させることができる。 Here, the lock portion 30 and the second contact portion 13 capable of contacting the lock portion 30 will be described with reference to FIG. The second contact portion 13 urges the guide portion 20 in the first direction in a state of being in contact with the lock portion 30. By operating the grip portion 40, the doctor can move the guide portion 20 in the second direction with respect to the holding portion 10.
 ロック部30が第2当接部13と当接した状態でガイド部20が第2方向への力を受けていない状態では、保持部10に保持された押圧部材50は、ガイド部20の第1当接部23より第2端12に近い位置に配置される。これにより、保持部10にて保持された押圧部材50の位置が正しく決められるまで、押圧部材50が側壁部62と当接しない。よって、医師は脊椎手術用器具1を用いて押圧部材50を収容溝63に円滑に取り付けることができる。 In a state where the lock portion 30 is in contact with the second contact portion 13 and the guide portion 20 is not receiving a force in the second direction, the pressing member 50 held by the holding portion 10 is the first of the guide portions 20. 1 It is arranged at a position closer to the second end 12 than the contact portion 23. As a result, the pressing member 50 does not come into contact with the side wall portion 62 until the position of the pressing member 50 held by the holding portion 10 is correctly determined. Therefore, the doctor can smoothly attach the pressing member 50 to the accommodating groove 63 by using the spinal surgery instrument 1.
 (さまざまな脊椎用インプラント60への押圧部材50の取り付け)
 以下では、さまざまな脊椎用インプラント60への押圧部材50の取り付けについて、図10~図12を用いて説明する。図10は、標準スクリュー68への押圧部材50の取り付けの様子を示す模式図である。図11は、リダクションスクリュー66への押圧部材50の取り付けの様子を示す模式図である。図12は、コネクタ67への押圧部材50の取り付けの様子を示す模式図である。なお、図10~図12では、押圧部材50の配置をわかりやすくするため、第2ガイド部22を簡略化した断面にて示している。また、図10~図12では、簡略化のために、第1開口部25および第2開口部26の図示は省略されている。
(Attachment of pressing member 50 to various spinal implants 60)
In the following, attachment of the pressing member 50 to various spinal implants 60 will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 12. FIG. 10 is a schematic view showing how the pressing member 50 is attached to the standard screw 68. FIG. 11 is a schematic view showing how the pressing member 50 is attached to the reduction screw 66. FIG. 12 is a schematic view showing how the pressing member 50 is attached to the connector 67. In FIGS. 10 to 12, the second guide portion 22 is shown in a simplified cross section in order to make the arrangement of the pressing member 50 easy to understand. Further, in FIGS. 10 to 12, the first opening 25 and the second opening 26 are not shown for the sake of simplicity.
 図10に示すように、標準スクリュー68は、側壁部62において収容溝63の開口の方向において第1当接部23と当接可能である。換言すれば、側壁部62は、当該側壁部の第2方向で第1当接部23と当接する。第1当接部23は、収容溝63の頂部で側壁部62と当接する。ここで頂部とは、側壁部62の台部61から最も突出した場所のことであり、側壁部62により形成される面または点のいずれでもよい。第1当接部23は側壁部62の頂部69に当接し、突出部24は収容溝63に当接し、さらに側壁部62に係合する。 As shown in FIG. 10, the standard screw 68 can come into contact with the first contact portion 23 in the direction of the opening of the accommodating groove 63 in the side wall portion 62. In other words, the side wall portion 62 comes into contact with the first contact portion 23 in the second direction of the side wall portion. The first contact portion 23 comes into contact with the side wall portion 62 at the top of the accommodating groove 63. Here, the top portion is a place most protruding from the base portion 61 of the side wall portion 62, and may be either a surface or a point formed by the side wall portion 62. The first contact portion 23 abuts on the top 69 of the side wall portion 62, the protruding portion 24 abuts on the accommodating groove 63, and further engages with the side wall portion 62.
 このような構成を備える脊椎手術用器具1を用いることによって、押圧部材50を安定して、標準スクリュー68の収容溝63に取り付けることができる。側壁部62は、収容溝63の壁面を形成する面に、雌ネジ64が形成されてもよい。 By using the spinal surgery instrument 1 having such a configuration, the pressing member 50 can be stably attached to the accommodating groove 63 of the standard screw 68. The side wall portion 62 may have a female screw 64 formed on the surface forming the wall surface of the accommodating groove 63.
 図11に示すように、リダクションスクリュー66は、標準スクリュー68に比べ、側壁部62の第2方向の長さが長い。このような場合であっても、収容溝63の幅に突出部24が係合することで側壁部62の長さに関係なく脊椎用インプラント60とガイド部20とを固定できる。 As shown in FIG. 11, the reduction screw 66 has a longer side wall portion 62 in the second direction than the standard screw 68. Even in such a case, the spinal implant 60 and the guide portion 20 can be fixed regardless of the length of the side wall portion 62 by engaging the protruding portion 24 with the width of the accommodating groove 63.
 第1当接部23は側壁部62の頂部69に当接し、突出部24は収容溝63に当接し、さらに側壁部62に係合する。このような構成を備える脊椎手術用器具1を用いることによって、押圧部材50を安定して、リダクションスクリュー66の収容溝63に取り付けることができる。 The first contact portion 23 abuts on the top 69 of the side wall portion 62, the protruding portion 24 abuts on the accommodating groove 63, and further engages with the side wall portion 62. By using the spinal surgery instrument 1 having such a configuration, the pressing member 50 can be stably attached to the accommodating groove 63 of the reduction screw 66.
 また、ガイド部20は、さらに周縁部23aを有していてもよい。これにより、ガイド部20は、第1当接部23と周縁部23aとにより形成された空間に側壁部62を収容できる。周縁部23aは、リダクションスクリュー66の側壁部62が変形したり、一対の側壁部62の間隔が広がったりすることを抑制する。周縁部23aを備えるガイド部20を適用した脊椎手術用器具1を用いることによって、押圧部材50をリダクションスクリュー66の収容溝63に好適に取り付けることができる。 Further, the guide portion 20 may further have a peripheral edge portion 23a. As a result, the guide portion 20 can accommodate the side wall portion 62 in the space formed by the first contact portion 23 and the peripheral edge portion 23a. The peripheral edge portion 23a suppresses the deformation of the side wall portion 62 of the reduction screw 66 and the widening of the distance between the pair of side wall portions 62. By using the spinal surgery instrument 1 to which the guide portion 20 having the peripheral portion 23a is applied, the pressing member 50 can be suitably attached to the accommodating groove 63 of the reduction screw 66.
 図12に示すように、コネクタ67は、標準スクリュー68またはリダクションスクリュー66と異なり、別の固定ロッド70を収容する収容溝を形成する第2側壁部65を備えている。 As shown in FIG. 12, unlike the standard screw 68 or the reduction screw 66, the connector 67 includes a second side wall portion 65 that forms an accommodating groove for accommodating another fixing rod 70.
 コネクタ67の側壁部62において、脊椎手術用器具1と接する箇所の形状は、標準スクリュー68およびリダクションスクリュー66と同様の形状である。このため、コネクタ67に対しても本開示の脊椎手術用器具1を用いることができる。 The shape of the side wall portion 62 of the connector 67 in contact with the spinal surgery instrument 1 is the same as that of the standard screw 68 and the reduction screw 66. Therefore, the spinal surgery instrument 1 of the present disclosure can be used for the connector 67 as well.
 すなわち、第1当接部23は側壁部62の頂部69に当接し、突出部24は収容溝63に当接し、さらに側壁部62に係合する。このような構成を備える脊椎手術用器具1を用いることによって、押圧部材50を安定して、コネクタ67の収容溝63に取り付けることができる。 That is, the first contact portion 23 abuts on the top 69 of the side wall portion 62, the protruding portion 24 abuts on the accommodating groove 63, and further engages with the side wall portion 62. By using the spinal surgery instrument 1 having such a configuration, the pressing member 50 can be stably attached to the accommodating groove 63 of the connector 67.
