Description

"Perfectionnement aux parties fémorales
de prothèses de hanche"
La présente invention concerne un perfectionnement aux parties fémorales de prothèses de hanche.
"Improvement to the femoral parts
hip prostheses "
The present invention relates to an improvement to the femoral parts of hip prostheses.

La partie fémorale d'une prothèse de hanche qui, comme on le sait, est destinée à remplacer la tête et le col défectueux d'un fémur réséqué, subissent, comme un fémur normal, des efforts très importants. En raison de l'angulation prévue entre la tête et la tige de cette partie fémorale pour remplacer le col du fémur, certains efforts engendrent des couples tendant à faire pivoter cette partie fémorale autour de l'axe longitudinal de sa tige qui est engagée dans le canal médullaire du fémur. The femoral part of a hip prosthesis which, as is known, is intended to replace the defective head and neck of a resected femur, undergoes, like a normal femur, very great efforts. Because of the angulation provided between the head and the stem of this femoral part to replace the neck of the femur, certain efforts generate couples tending to make this femoral part pivot around the longitudinal axis of its stem which is engaged in the medullary canal of the femur.

Un tel pivotement est évidemment inacceptable et exigerait une intervention chirurgicale immédiate.Such pivoting is obviously unacceptable and would require immediate surgery.

Avec les prothèses vissées ou scellées, ce pivotement, quoique possible, est relativement peu envisageable. Par contre, avec les prothèses équipées d'une tige fasciculée telles celles décrites et revendiquées dans les brevets français 2 425 237 et 2 483 218, le risque d'un tel pivotement est plus grand. En effet, la constitution fasciculée de la tige vise à améliorer le.  With prostheses screwed or sealed, this pivoting, although possible, is relatively unlikely. On the other hand, with prostheses equipped with a fasciculated rod such as those described and claimed in French patents 2,425,237 and 2,483,218, the risk of such pivoting is greater. Indeed, the fasciculated constitution of the stem aims to improve the.

confort du malade en ne modifiant pas les caractéristiques de souplesse et d'élasticité du fémur par l'introduction d'une tige très rigide ; par contre, la souplesse et l'élasticité de la tige fasciculée présente l'inconvénient d'autoriser, plus facilement que les autres tiges, le pivotement précité, au moins tant que la reprise osseuse dans le canal médullaire n'est pas suffisante pour y faire obstacle de manière absolue.comfort of the patient by not modifying the characteristics of flexibility and elasticity of the femur by the introduction of a very rigid rod; on the other hand, the flexibility and the elasticity of the fasciculated rod has the disadvantage of authorizing, more easily than the other rods, the abovementioned pivoting, at least as long as the bone recovery in the medullary canal is not sufficient to obstruct absolutely.

Par ailleurs, les. parties fémorales de ces prothèses de hanche sont souvent constituées de deux éléments, à savoir un élément diaphysaire comportant la tige engageable dans le canal médullaire et surmontée d'un plateau, et un élément cervico-céphalique comportant une embase, une tête sphérique et un col reliant cette tête à l'embase, ces deux éléments étant assemblés l'un à l'autre par coincement conique. In addition, the. femoral parts of these hip prostheses often consist of two elements, namely a diaphyseal element comprising the rod which can be engaged in the medullary canal and surmounted by a plate, and a cervico-cephalic element comprising a base, a spherical head and a neck connecting this head to the base, these two elements being assembled to each other by conical wedging.

Cette disposition présente de nombreux avantages et, notamment, de permettre
- de disposer facilement de plusieurs têtes de diamètres différents et de choisir la tête la plus adaptée au dernier moment, en fonction des conditions rencontrées par le praticien,
- de remplacer la tête après usure éventuelle, sans opération traumatisante pour le patient puisque l'élément diaphysaire peut être conserve,
- d'orienter correctement l'élément cervico-céphalique après mise en place de l'élément diaphysaire notamment lorsque sa tige est vissée dans le canal médullaire.
This arrangement has many advantages and, in particular, to allow
- to easily have several heads of different diameters and to choose the most suitable head at the last moment, according to the conditions encountered by the practitioner,
- to replace the head after possible wear, without traumatic operation for the patient since the diaphyseal element can be preserved,
- to correctly orient the cervico-cephalic element after the diaphyseal element is put in place, especially when its stem is screwed into the medullary canal.

Dans ce cas, des moyens sont prévus, en plus de l'assemblage par coincement conique, pour lier en rotation deux éléments constitutifs de cette partie fémorale. Naturellement, cette liaison en rotation des deux éléments de cette partie fémorale n'élimine pas le risque de pivotement de l'ensemble de cette partie fémorale par rapport au fémur, puisqu'elle n'a pour effet que de conférer à cette partie fémorale en deux éléments les qualités d'une partie fémorale monobloc. In this case, means are provided, in addition to the assembly by conical wedging, to link in rotation two constituent elements of this femoral part. Naturally, this rotational connection of the two elements of this femoral part does not eliminate the risk of pivoting of the whole of this femoral part relative to the femur, since it only has the effect of conferring on this femoral part in two elements the qualities of a monobloc femoral part.

La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients. A cet effet, la partie fémorale de prothèse de hanche qu'elle concerne comprend, outre une tige d'ancrage dans le canal médullaire du fémur surmontée d'un plateau, une tête sphérique, une embase de tête sphérique et un col reliant la tête sphérique à son embase, le plateau de la tige d'ancrage et l'embase de la tête sphérique étant liés l'un à l'autre soit par construction, soit par assemblage, notamment par coincement conique, et des moyens de liaison, au moins en rotation, de l'embase de la tête sphérique au fémur. The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks. To this end, the femoral part of the hip prosthesis which it relates to comprises, in addition to an anchoring rod in the medullary canal of the femur surmounted by a plate, a spherical head, a spherical head base and a neck connecting the head. spherical to its base, the plate of the anchor rod and the base of the spherical head being linked to each other either by construction or by assembly, in particular by conical wedging, and connecting means, to the less in rotation, from the base of the spherical head to the femur.

Suivant une forme d'exécution simple de l'invention, les moyens de liaison, au moins en rotation, de l'embase de la tête sphérique au fémur sont constitués par une plaque allongée, munie de perforations et solidaire, par son extrémité supérieure, d'un secteur de l'embase de la tête sphérique de manière à lui permettre de longer la partie supérieure de la diaphyse du fémur lors de la mise en place de cette partie fémorale de prothèse, les perforations étant destinées au passage de vis de fixation de cette plaque au fémur. According to a simple embodiment of the invention, the means of connection, at least in rotation, of the base of the spherical head to the femur consist of an elongated plate, provided with perforations and secured by its upper end, of a sector of the base of the spherical head so as to allow it to go along the upper part of the diaphysis of the femur during the positioning of this femoral part of prosthesis, the perforations being intended for the passage of fixing screws of this femoral plate.

De préférence, le secteur de l'embase dont est solidaire l'extrémité supérieure de sa plaque de fixation au fémur est diamétralement opposé à celui par rapport auquel la tête sphérique est en saillie. Preferably, the sector of the base to which the upper end of its femur attachment plate is integral is diametrically opposite to that relative to which the spherical head is projecting.

Suivant une forme d'exécution préférée de l'invention, la plaque munie de perforations et solidaire d'un secteur de l'embase de la tête sphérique lui est fixée de manière amovible. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the plate provided with perforations and integral with a sector of the base of the spherical head is removably attached to it.

Non seulement cette disposition facilite la fabrication de cette partie fémorale de prothèse, qu'elle soit en un seul ou en deux éléments prothétiques mais, en outre, elle permet au praticien de disposer d'un choix de plaques de longueurs différentes et d'adopter, au dernier moment, celle qui convient le mieux aux conditions rencontrées lors de chaque opération. Not only does this arrangement facilitate the manufacture of this femoral part of the prosthesis, whether it is in a single or in two prosthetic elements but, moreover, it allows the practitioner to have a choice of plates of different lengths and to adopt , at the last moment, the one that best suits the conditions encountered during each operation.

Cette disposition permet aussi d'utiliser, sans difficultés, des erktretoises coniques engageables sur la tige diaphysaire et éventuellement rendues nécessaires par une résection obligatoirement importante du fémur. This arrangement also makes it possible to use, without difficulty, conical erktretoises which can be engaged on the diaphyseal rod and which may be made necessary by necessarily obligatory resection of the femur.

Suivant une forme d'exécution préférée de l'invention, le long du secteur de l'embase de la tête sphérique auquel doit être fixée, de manière amovible, l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque munie de perforations, est ménagée une gorge longitudinale dont la section transversale présente un contour en contre-dépouille et dont le fond est muni de trous taraudés, tandis que l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque présente une section transversale complémentaire de celle de la gorge ainsi que des perforations de même répartition que les trous taraudés du fond de la gorge, de manière qu'après introduction de l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque dans la gorge, des vis de fixation puissent être engagées dans les perforations de l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque et vissées dans les trous taraudés du fond de la gorge de l'embase. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, along the sector of the base of the spherical head to which must be removably attached, the upper end of the plate provided with perforations, is formed a longitudinal groove which the cross section has an undercut contour and the bottom of which is provided with tapped holes, while the upper end of the plate has a cross section complementary to that of the groove as well as perforations of the same distribution as the tapped holes of the bottom of the groove, so that after introduction of the upper end of the plate into the groove, fixing screws can be engaged in the perforations of the upper end of the plate and screwed into the tapped holes in the bottom from the throat of the base.

Par exemple, la section transversale de la gorge et de l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque est trapézoldale.  For example, the cross section of the groove and the upper end of the plate is trapezoidal.

De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représen- tant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme d'exécution de ce perfectionnement dans le cas de son application à une partie fémorale de prothèse à tige fasciculée et constituée de deux éléments, respectivement diaphysaire et cervico-céphalique, assemblés l'un à l'autre par coincement conique

Figure 2 est une vue de côté en élévation de l'élément cervico-céphalique seul
Figure 3 est une vue de côté de l'extrémité supérieure d'un fémur équipé de l'élément fémoral des figures 1 et 2, après résection.
In any case, the invention will be clearly understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended diagrammatic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of this improvement in the case of its application to a femoral part of prosthesis with a fasciculated stem and consisting of two elements, respectively diaphyseal and cervico-cephalic, assembled to each other by conical wedging
Figure I is an exploded perspective view
Figure 2 is a side elevation view of the cervico-cephalic element alone
Figure 3 is a side view of the upper end of a femur equipped with the femoral element of Figures 1 and 2, after resection.

Comme le montre la figure 1, cette partie fémorale comprend un élément diaphysaire 2 et un élément cervico-céphalique 3. L'élément diaphysaire2 comprend une tige fasciculée 2a dont l'extrémité supérieure est solidaire d'un plateau circulaire 4 destiné à prendre appui, par sa face inférieure 4a, contre l'extrémité supérieure réséquée Sa du fémur 5 équipé de cette partie fémorale de prothèse. La face supérieure 4b du plateau circulaire 4, qui constitue la face d'assemblage de l'élément diaphysaire 2 avec l'élément cervico-céphalique 3, supporte une saillie 6 en forme de tronc de cône prévue pour l'assemblage par coincement conique de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3. As shown in FIG. 1, this femoral part comprises a diaphyseal element 2 and a cervico-cephalic element 3. The diaphyseal element 2 comprises a fasciculated rod 2a whose upper end is integral with a circular plate 4 intended to bear, by its lower face 4a, against the resected upper end Sa of the femur 5 equipped with this femoral part of prosthesis. The upper face 4b of the circular plate 4, which constitutes the assembly face of the diaphyseal element 2 with the cervico-cephalic element 3, supports a projection 6 in the form of a truncated cone provided for assembly by conical wedging of the cervico-cephalic element 3.

L'élément cervico-céphalique 3 comporte une tête sphérique 3a destinée à remplacer la tête du fémur réséqué 5, une embase 3b de forme sensiblement cylindrique et une partie de liaison 3c en forme de col reliant la tête sphérique 3a à l'embase 3b. L'extrémité supérieure de l'embase 3b, qui constitue sa face d'assemblage 3d au plateau 4 et qui est sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe de révolution de l'embase 3b, présente un puits tronconique 7 de forme complémentaire de celle de la saillie 6 et dans lequel cette dernière est destinée à être engagée pour réaliser l'assemblage par coincement conique des deux éléments diaphysaire 2 et cervico-céphalique 3. The cervico-cephalic element 3 comprises a spherical head 3a intended to replace the head of the resected femur 5, a base 3b of substantially cylindrical shape and a connecting part 3c in the form of a neck connecting the spherical head 3a to the base 3b. The upper end of the base 3b, which constitutes its assembly face 3d to the plate 4 and which is substantially perpendicular to the axis of revolution of the base 3b, has a frustoconical well 7 of shape complementary to that of the projection 6 and in which the latter is intended to be engaged for carrying out the assembly by conical wedging of the two diaphyseal 2 and cervico-cephalic 3 elements.

On conçoit aisément que la présence du col 3c reliant la tête sphérique 3a à l'embase 3b confère à l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 la forme d'un bras de levier qui transforme en couple tendant à le faire pivoter autour de l'axe de révolution de son embase 3b, c'est-à-dire de l'axe longitudinal du fémur 5, une partie des efforts transmis à la tête 3a par la cavité cotyloidienne, équipée ou non d'une cupule prothétique, du patient. It is easily understood that the presence of the neck 3c connecting the spherical head 3a to the base 3b gives the cervico-cephalic element 3 the shape of a lever arm which transforms into a torque tending to make it pivot around the axis of revolution of its base 3b, that is to say of the longitudinal axis of the femur 5, part of the forces transmitted to the head 3a by the acetabular cavity, equipped or not with a prosthetic cup, of the patient.

Comme indiqué précédemment, la présente invention vise à neutraliser les couples éventuellement appliqués à l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 en liant ce dernier au fémur 5. As indicated previously, the present invention aims to neutralize the couples possibly applied to the cervico-cephalic element 3 by linking the latter to the femur 5.

A cet effet, à l'embase 3b de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3, est associée une plaque allongée 8 apte à lui être fixée latéralement de manière amovible, de telle sorte qu'après mise en place de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 par assemblage à l'élément diaphysaire 2, cette plaque 8 puisse longer la face externe adjacente du fémur 5 et lui être fixée par des vis 9 engagées dans des perforations 8a prévues à cet effet le long de la plaque 8. For this purpose, with the base 3b of the cervico-cephalic element 3, is associated an elongated plate 8 able to be fixed to it laterally in a removable manner, so that after the cervico-cephalic element is put in place 3 by assembly with the diaphyseal element 2, this plate 8 can run along the adjacent external face of the femur 5 and be fixed to it by screws 9 engaged in perforations 8a provided for this purpose along the plate 8.

Dans l'exemple illustré sur le dessin, la plaque 8 est fixée de manière amovible à l'embase 3b de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 par assemblage dit en queue d'aronde. In the example illustrated in the drawing, the plate 8 is removably attached to the base 3b of the cervico-cephalic element 3 by so-called dovetail assembly.

A cet effet, l'embase 3b de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 présente, le long d'un secteur diamétralement opposé à la tête sphérique 3a, une gorge longitudinale Il de section transversale trapézoîdale et dont le fond est muni de deux trous taraudés 12, tandis que l'extrémité supérieure 8b de la plaque 8, conformée en queue, présente une section transversale trapézoidale complémentaire de celle de la gorge 11 lui permettant d'être engagée, par son bord libre, dans cette gorge.L'extrémité supérieure 8b de la plaque 8 présente, en outre, deux perforations 8c destinées à venir en coincidence avec les perforations 12 du fond de la gorge Il pour permettre l'immobilisation de cette extrémité 8b dans la gorge 11 à l'aide de vis 13 et, par conséquent, la fixation amovible de la plaque 8 à l'embase 3b de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3. To this end, the base 3b of the cervico-cephalic element 3 has, along a sector diametrically opposite to the spherical head 3a, a longitudinal groove II of trapezoidal cross section and the bottom of which is provided with two tapped holes 12, while the upper end 8b of the plate 8, shaped as a tail, has a trapezoidal cross section complementary to that of the groove 11 allowing it to be engaged, by its free edge, in this groove. The upper end 8b of the plate 8 has, in addition, two perforations 8c intended to coincide with the perforations 12 of the bottom of the groove II to allow the immobilization of this end 8b in the groove 11 using screws 13 and, consequently, the removable attachment of the plate 8 to the base 3b of the cervico-cephalic element 3.

Cette disposition permet donc d'immobiliser en rotation l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 par rapport au fémur 3 et n'assure aucune immobilisation en rotation de l'élément diaphysaire 2. This arrangement therefore makes it possible to immobilize the cervico-cephalic element 3 in rotation relative to the femur 3 and does not ensure any immobilization in rotation of the diaphyseal element 2.

Il faut cependant noter que cet élément diaphysaire 2 ne subit, quant à lui, aucune contrainte tendant à le faire pivoter dans l'axe du canal médullaire du fémur 5 et que, par conséquent, une telle immobilisation en rotation de cet élément diaphysaire 2 par rapport au fémur 5 se trouve totalement inutile. However, it should be noted that this diaphyseal element 2 is not subjected to any constraint tending to make it pivot in the axis of the medullary canal of the femur 5 and that, consequently, such immobilization in rotation of this diaphyseal element 2 by compared to femur 5 is completely unnecessary.

La fixation amovible de la plaque 8 à l'élément cervico-céphalique 3 présente non seulement l'avantage de faciliter la fabrication de cet élément mais, en outre, celui de permettre de choisir au dernier moment la plaque 8 la mieux appropriée aux conditions rencontrées par le praticien lors d'une opération, plusieurs plaques 8 de longueurs différentes étant prévues, comme indiqué en traits mixtes sur la figure 1. The removable attachment of the plate 8 to the cervico-cephalic element 3 has not only the advantage of facilitating the manufacture of this element but, moreover, that of making it possible to choose at the last moment the plate 8 most suitable for the conditions encountered by the practitioner during an operation, several plates 8 of different lengths being provided, as indicated in dashed lines in FIG. 1.

La partie fémorale de prothèse de hanche conforme à l'invention peut également comporter un jeu de bagues 14 et 15 engageables et empilables sur la tige fasciculée 2a de l'élément diaphysaire 2, pour permettre de positionner correctement cet élément diaphysaire 2 en fonction de la position souhaitée de la tête sphérique 3a de l'élément cervico-céphalique 3, quelle que soit l'ampleur de la partie réséquée du fémur 5. The femoral part of hip prosthesis according to the invention may also include a set of rings 14 and 15 which can be engaged and stacked on the fasciculated rod 2a of the diaphyseal element 2, in order to allow this diaphyseal element 2 to be correctly positioned according to the desired position of the spherical head 3a of the cervico-cephalic element 3, whatever the size of the resected part of the femur 5.

En effet, selon les conditions et les raisons ayant conduit le praticien à effectuer cette opération, il peut être nécessaire de réséquerune partie importante du fémur 5. Dans ce cas, il ne serait plus possible d'utiliser l'élément diaphysaire 2 illustré sur la figure 1 et il faudrait disposer d'un élément diaphysaire 2 équivalent mais comportant un plateau 4 de longueur bien supérieure, apte à compenser la résection du fémur 5. Le fait de disposer des bagues 14 et 15 susceptibles de jouer le rôle d'entre- toises entre la face d'appui 4a du plateau 4 et la face réséquée 5b du fémur 5, permet d'adapter cette prothèse à toutes les conditions susceptibles d'être rencontrées lors d'une opération, sans avoir à disposer d'un jeu important d'éléments diaphysaires 2 de dimensions différentes.  Indeed, depending on the conditions and the reasons which led the practitioner to carry out this operation, it may be necessary to resect a significant part of the femur 5. In this case, it would no longer be possible to use the diaphyseal element 2 illustrated on the Figure 1 and it would be necessary to have an equivalent diaphyseal element 2 but comprising a plate 4 of much greater length, capable of compensating for the resection of the femur 5. The fact of having rings 14 and 15 capable of playing the role of rods between the bearing face 4a of the plate 4 and the resected face 5b of the femur 5, makes it possible to adapt this prosthesis to all the conditions likely to be encountered during an operation, without having to have a significant clearance diaphyseal elements 2 of different dimensions.
