Definitions
- the invention relates to a hip joint endoprosthesis.
- the setting of the head center was dependent on the choice of the angle between the femoral neck and the shaft (femoral neck-shaft angle), which has recently been selected increasingly valgisch, ie at approximately 140 °, compared to approximately 126 to 130 ° of the physiological angle. This should result in less bending and shear stress on the femoral bearing. Because of the lateralization of the resultants reflected from the ground, however, the pans were quickly worn out.
- a hip joint prosthesis is known from FR 26 05 514 AI, in which adjustment of the prosthesis head is provided in three directions.
- the prosthesis is made in three parts.
- the prosthetic head which carries a joint ball on a cone, is placed on a pin fixed in the thigh bone.
- the distance between the center of the joint ball and the central axis of the prosthesis is adjusted by means of joint balls with cones pressed in at different depths.
- the height of the center point of the joint ball along the central axis of the prosthesis is achieved by prosthesis heads with different heights.
- the prosthesis head is mounted in a pin attached to a prosthesis shaft; the rotation is through a screw that clamps the prosthesis head against the prosthesis shaft.
- a hip joint prosthesis is known from EP 0 390 883 A1, which has a head part on a neck part connected with a pin, which can be arranged in one, two or three dimensions so as to be adjustable.
- a displacement by means of two mutually perpendicular rails, for example in dovetail guides, is provided in a frontal and / or sagittal plane. It is also proposed to provide a tilting in the sagittal plane and an adjustment in the vertical direction. The settings should be fixed with screws.
- the object of the invention is to provide an improved adjustable hip joint endoprosthesis which can be adapted to the orthopedic conditions of the patient during the operation, enables a uniform transmission of force and ensures a firm fixation of the settings.
- the hip joint endoprosthesis according to the invention enables the prosthesis head to be adjusted in the horizontal plane without step formation along a tangent of the Shenton line in the medial end region.
- the direction of the plane of the medio-lateral displacement is set such that it is aligned parallel to a tangent which starts from the lateral edge of the proximal metaphyseal funnel of the prosthesis and lies against the inner medial boundary of the femoral neck becomes.
- the invention advantageously creates a hip-joint endoprosthesis that can be largely adjusted without the exchange of individual parts.
- the prosthesis is adapted to the patient's orthopedic conditions by adjusting the prosthesis head during the operation. There are gradual adjustment options for this Provided both in the edio-lateral direction and in the torsion angle of the prosthesis by rotation about the shaft axis of the thigh bone. These settings are preferably secured by positive locking gears. A change in the settings without canceling the form closure is only possible by external forces if these would lead to the prosthesis breaking.
- the toothing also makes it possible to adjust the prosthesis separately in both directions of movement with small forces without changing the other setting.
- only one clamping element e.g. a threaded bolt or a foldable expanding bolt or rivet or the like means is required.
- joint balls For the adjustment in the proximal-distal direction, it is provided to use joint balls with internal cones machined to different depths, the joint balls being of different sizes.
- All setting and fixing means are designed and arranged in such a way that they are easily accessible to the surgeon.

- the hip joint endoprosthesis is inserted along a shaft axis S in the femur 1 and fixed there in the bone cement sheath 2. All edges of the hip joint endoprosthesis and the adjusting device 23, including the link segment 4, are rounded as far as possible, in particular in the medio-proximal end region of the prosthesis, in order to avoid stress concentrations which can damage or destroy the bone cement sheath 2.
- At least three adjustment directions are provided for setting an orthopedically correct position of the joint ball 6.
- a first setting is made by linear displacement in the medio-lateral direction along a line BB '
- a second setting is made in the proximal-distal direction by a line CC

- an angle a is defined between a perpendicular to the shaft axis S and the line B-B *.
- the line B-B * lies laterally (point b) on the funnel edge of the proximal metaphysis.
- Point b is the projection of the lateral funnel edge in an X-ray image in the sagittal beam path a-p (anterior-posterior).
- the line B-B 'lies at point b * against the arcuate inner boundary of the femoral neck.
- the angle ⁇ is between 1 and 15 °, preferably between 2 and 10 °, particularly preferably between 2 and 4 °. Due to the selected angle ⁇ , a uniform force transmission is ensured by the displacement of the prosthesis head along the line B-B *, since when the prosthesis head 5 is displaced by means of the adjusting device, the Shenton line is followed without step formation.
- the hip joint endoprosthesis is adjusted in that the prosthesis head 5 is displaced in the medio-lateral direction parallel to a tangent which is seated on the lateral edge of the proximal femoral funnel of the hip joint and engages the inner contour of the femoral neck.
- the adjustment is preferably made after inserting the shaft 3 into a thigh bone.
- the method for adjusting the hip joint endoprosthesis can, however, also be carried out outside the body on the X-ray image and all the necessary settings can be made there. It is also possible for the hip joint endoprosthesis to be adjusted in advance in a laboratory on the basis of X-ray images and independently of the surgical operation being carried out.

Abstract
Une endoprothèse de l'articulation de la hanche comprend une tête (5) médio-latéralement mobile parallèlement à une tangente qui touche (b) le bord latéral de l'infundibulum fémoral proximal de l'articulation de la hanche et qui s'étend le long du contour intérieur courbe (b1) du col du fémur. Cette endoprothèse de l'articulation de la hanche permet d'ajuster de manière reproductible, au moyen d'une tête ajustable (5), le centre de rotation de l'articulation de la hanche. Des dentures (12, 13, 15, 16) permettent d'ajuster progressivement (avec finesse) le déplacement dans le sens médio-latéral (B-B1) et la rotation autour d'un axe (A-A1) perpendiculaire au plan de déplacement (B-B1). La fixation est assurée par une seule vis (10) qui serre l'une contre l'autre les dentures (12, 13, 15, 16) en prise. Le joint à rotule (6) est monté sur un cône (17) au-dessus de la tête de la prothèse (5) et l'on effectue le réglage en hauteur en enfonçant plus ou moins le cône dans la tête de la prothèse.A hip joint endoprosthesis comprises a head (5) which is medio-laterally movable parallel to a tangent which touches (b) the lateral edge of the femoral infundibulum proximal to the hip joint and which extends along the curved inner contour (b1) of the neck of the femur. This hip joint endoprosthesis makes it possible to adjust, in a reproducible manner, by means of an adjustable head (5), the center of rotation of the hip joint. Toothing (12, 13, 15, 16) makes it possible to gradually adjust (with finesse) the displacement in the medio-lateral direction (B-B1) and the rotation around an axis (A-A1) perpendicular to the plane of displacement (B-B1). The fixing is ensured by a single screw (10) which clamps one against the other the teeth (12, 13, 15, 16) in engagement. The ball joint (6) is mounted on a cone (17) above the head of the prosthesis (5) and the height is adjusted by pushing the cone more or less into the head of the prosthesis.
