Definitions
- the present invention relates to hip bone support, for example, using minimally invasive techniques.
- Hip plate-screw systems have become one of the treatments of choice for management of unstable and stable intertrochanteric-, pertrochanteric- and base-of-femoral-neck fractures.
- Such systems are generally composed of a plate and screw(s) inserted into the femoral head ("lag screw"), as well as screws locking the plate to the femoral shaft.
- Implantation of hip plate-screw systems are usually performed using an open surgical approach, however, a less invasive approach has been described (e.g., U.S. Patents 4,465,065 and 5,429,641, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference).
- the plate of a device implanted in an open approach typically has attached to the plate, an angled integral barrel for lag screw guiding, and distal holes formed in the plate for screws intended to lock the plate to the bone.
- the plate and barrel which is connected to the lag screw
- the plate and barrel are provided as separate components, and assembled during surgery after the plate is positioned on the lateral cortex of the femoral bone.
- the barrel (with the lag screw) is connected to the plate intra-operatively, within the patient body, by screwing it into a threaded hole in the plate.
- a plate device for example a hip plate-peg device in which a barrel guiding the peg is rotationally locked to the plate.
- the device comprises a plate body, vertically placed and which contacts the external femoral lateral cortex; a plate barrel ("barrel"), for guiding a lag screw ("hip peg"), connected at an angle to plate body; a lag screw (“hip peg”), inserted through barrel into the femoral head; one or more cortical screws, that distally lock plate body to the bone; and a hip pin, optionally inserted in cases of comminuted fractures.
- the plate is attached to an upper arm bone and the lag screw is attached the head of the bone (e.g., humerus head), which fits in the shoulder socket.
- plate barrel is connected to plate body by a thread, and locked to it by rotating a bolt in the plate body, for example with a designated screwdriver, until bolt penetrates a matching slot in barrel.
- barrel is connected to plate body by a spiral thread, and their locking is achieved automatically at the end of barrel rotational introduction/connection, by the insertion of a clamping snap in barrel into a designated slot in plate body.
- hip peg only one lag screw
- a potential advantage of inserting a single hip peg is reducing the possibility of damaging the femoral neck bone and complications thereof.
- a locking hip pin may be inserted as well.
- hip peg has an expandable distal portion, which - expands within the femoral head following hip peg insertion.
- the peg has an oval or other non-circular cross-section.
- a protrusion with a matching slot are used to prevent rotation.
- expandable distal section of hip peg is constructed from an expanding, metal thin membrane with protrusions, which is folded to gain a reduced configuration. Upon expansion, said section is unfolded to gain its expanded configuration.
- said protrusions of expandable distal section are constructed as longitudinal bars, for example three bars.
- the hip peg is expanded by pressurized liquid, for example sterile saline, using a manual pump.
- the hip peg includes a one-way valve, assuring pressurized liquid remains within hip peg distal section. Alternatively, the hip peg does not contain such a valve, and hip peg remains in its expanded configuration due to plastic deformation of the inflated area.
- the axial sliding motion potential of hip peg is limited. Potential advantages of such limited sliding are enhancement of callus formation and reduction the risk of bone shortening and limited joint movement as well as of hip peg migration into acetabulum.
- hip peg the sliding motion of hip peg is limited by rotating a bolt in plate body, until it penetrates, through plate barrel, a matching slot in hip peg shaft.
- such an axial motion limitation is used in other implantable sliding peg systems.
- axial motion of the peg is limited by the barrel and rotational motion of the peg is also limited by the barrel. Both axial and rotational motion of the barrel are limited its connection to the plate.

- hip plate-screw device- in which a plate body and a barrel are connected and locked to each other intra-operatively (within the patient body).
- only a single hip peg is used.

- an aperture (not shown) is provided in aiming device 29, for access to bolt 14.
- FIG. 8 illustrates a hydraulic removal device 37 for extraction of hip peg 2, if required, in accordance with some exemplary embodiments of the invention.
- Hip peg removal device 37 comprises a rod 38 that is connected to hip peg 2; a cylinder 39, containing a piston 40 that is connected to rod 38; and a tube 41 into which hip peg 2 is pulled.
- hip peg 2 and rod 38 are connected to each other by a threading.
- cylinder 39 may be sealed with, for example, one or more o-rings 42-43.
- two o-rings are used.
- tube 41 may have a smaller diameter than the diameter of expanded section 23 of hip peg 2.
- hip peg removal device 37 in order to extract hip peg 2 from patient body hip peg removal device 37 may be connected via a quick connector 44 to a manual pump, which delivers pressurized liquid, for example sterile saline, into cylinder chamber 39.
- a manual pump which delivers pressurized liquid, for example sterile saline, into cylinder chamber 39.
- piston 40 moves backwards and exerts axial force to extract (pull) rod 38 and hip peg 2 into said tube 41.
- Other mechanism can be used for pulling back, for example, a knob that turns a screw thereby pulling back piston 40.
- a high mechanical gain is provided, to avoid the user from applying high forces which can cause inadvertent movement.
- the diameter of expanded distal section 23 of hip peg 2 may be reduced during extraction, by mechanical forces exerted on hip peg 2 while hip peg 2 is pulled through tube 41 that has a smaller diameter than the diameter of an expanded hip peg portion 23.
- reduction in diameter of expanded hip peg portion 23 may be achieved by piercing a one-way valve in hip peg 2, intended to maintain pressurized liquid inside expanded portion 23, to allow pressure decrease and easier removal. Piercing may be performed, for example, while connecting hip peg 2 to removal device rod 38, by a sharp extension of rod 38.
- the one-way valve of hip peg 2 is positioned so that threading rod 38 into peg 2 pushes a distal end of rod 38 against the valve and releases the pressure in hip peg 2.
- removal device 37 is not limited to extraction of hip peg 2 component of hip plate-screw system, but is suitable for extraction of other types of implanted hip pegs, such as hip peg component of intramedullary nailing system.
- the removal device may be used to extract an intramedullary nail from the bone.
- barrel 11 is removed by opening bolt 14
- the tool comprises a tube with a projecting tooth that is oriented outwards and backwards. In use, the tube is advanced past snap 20 and retracted so that tooth engages snap 20 and allows barrel 11 to be rotated and/or otherwise removed.
- the piston also rotates while moving backwards, enabling rotation of implant during extraction.
- the piston rod is hollow and a spiral is located inside it. Rotational movement of piston is simultaneously achieved with its backwards movement, hi an alternative embodiment, piston 40 has a threading matching a protrusion or threading in chamber 39.
