Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Endoprothese mit einem Stiel zur Verankerung in einem menschlichen Knochen, und mit mindestens einem Distanzelement zur Festlegung des Zwi schenraums zwischen dem Stiel und dem Knochen.The invention is based on an endoprosthesis with a stem for anchoring in a human bone, and with at least one spacer element to determine the interme space between the stem and the bone.
Derartige Endoprothesen sind beispielsweise bekannt aus den US 48 27 919, US 47 18 909, US 45 49 319, US 44 04 692, DE 89 11 046, die einzementierbare Oberschenkelteile von Hüftprothesen betreffen. Die Distanzelemente sitzen auf dem Stiel der Endopro these und dienen zur Festlegung eines gleichmäßigen Zwischen raums zwischen Endoprothese und Knochen, um einen möglichst gleichmäßig dicken Zementmantel um die Endoprothese herum zu verwirklichen. Derartige bekann te Distanzelemente bestehen z. B. aus Polymethylmeta crylat (PMMA), sie werden zusammen mit der Endoprothese in den Knochen eingesetzt und verbleiben dort nach der Operation.Endoprostheses of this type are known, for example, from US Pat US 48 27 919, US 47 18 909, US 45 49 319, US 44 04 692, DE 89 11 046, the cementable thigh parts of hip prostheses affect. The spacer elements sit on the handle of the Endopro theses and serve to establish an even intermediate space between endoprosthesis and bone, um a uniformly thick cement jacket around the To realize endoprosthesis around. Such was known te spacers exist z. B. from polymethylmeta crylate (PMMA), they are used together with the endoprosthesis inserted in the bones and remain there after the Surgery.
Aus der DE 39 12 465 C1 ist es bekannt, Distanzelemente unterhalb des Kragens eines Oberschenkelteils einer Hüftgelenkendoprothese vorzusehen, wobei die Distanz elemente an eines Ring aus Kunststoffmaterial angeformt sind, der beim Einzementieren entfernt werden kann, so daß der Zement schließlich auch den ursprünglich von den Distanzelementen eingenommenen Raum ausfüllen kann. Beim Entfernen der Distanzelemente und dem anschließen den Befüllen dieses Restvolumens mit Knochenzement läßt sich jedoch eine unerwünschte Positionsänderung der Endoprothese im Knochenhohlraum nicht zuverlässig aus schließen, so daß der erwünschte gleichmäßige Zement mantel nicht in allen Fällen sicher gewährleistet ist.DE 39 12 465 C1 discloses spacer elements one below the collar of a thigh part Hip joint prosthesis to be provided, the distance elements molded onto a ring made of plastic material that can be removed when cementing, so that the cement was also originally from can fill the space occupied by the spacer elements. When removing the spacers and connect them the filling of this residual volume with bone cement an undesirable change in position of the Endoprosthesis in the bone cavity is not reliable close so that the desired even cement coat is not guaranteed in all cases.
Aus der DE 28 50 586 C2 ist weiterhin eine Einlage bekannt, die zur Endoprothesenverankerung mittels eines Knochenzements in einem Knochenhohlraum dient und eine der Form des Knochenhohlraums angepaßte, für den noch nicht ausgehärteten Knochenzement un durchlässige Folie aus resorbierbaren Substanzen enthält. Die Einlage wird nach dem Aushärten des Knochenzements durch Resor bierung der eingelagerten Substanzen teilweise durch das einge wachsene neue Knochengewebe durchdrungen.From DE 28 50 586 C2 an insert is also known which Endoprosthesis anchoring using a bone cement in one Bone cavity serves and one of the shape of the bone cavity adapted, for the not yet hardened bone cement un contains permeable film of resorbable substances. The After the bone cement has hardened, the insert becomes resor The storage of the substances in part by the penetrated growing new bone tissue.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Endoprothese der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, daß die Distanzelemente den gewünschten Abstand zwischen Pro these und Knochen während und nach der Operation zu verlässig festlegen, ohne daß die metallische Prothese direkt in Berührung mit dem Knochen kommt oder die Distanzelemente als Fremdkörper im Körper verbleiben.The object of the invention is an endoprosthesis type mentioned in such a way that the Distance elements the desired distance between Pro thesis and bones during and after surgery set reliably without the metallic prosthesis comes into direct contact with the bone or that Spacers remain in the body as foreign bodies.
Diese Aufgabe wird bei der Endoprothese der eingangs genannten Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das bzw. die Distanzelemente aus bioresorbierbarem Materi al bestehen. This task is the beginning of the endoprosthesis mentioned type according to the invention solved in that the or the spacer elements made of bioabsorbable material al exist.
Die Vorteile der Erfindung liegen insbesondere darin, daß die Distanzelemente aus einem Material bestehen, welches - in an sich bekannter Weise - bioresorbier bar ist und daher im menschlichen Körper, z. B. durch Hydrolyse, allmählich vollständig abgebaut wird. Es ist dadurch gewährleistet, daß die Distanzelemente während und unmittelbar nach der Operation ihre Funk tion zuverlässig erfüllen und erst allmählich nach dem Festwerden des Knochenzements abgebaut werden, wobei dann nachwachsendes Knochengewebe die ursprüng lich von den Distanzelementen besetzten Volumina aus füllt. Auf die bekannten, an der metallischen Endo prothese angeformten Distanzelemente, die zu uner wünschten Metall/Knochenkontakt führen, sowie auf die bekannten Distanzelemente aus Kunststoffmaterial, die als Fremdkörper im Knochen verbleiben und dort stören können, braucht daher nicht zurückgegriffen zu werden.The advantages of the invention are in particular that the spacer elements consist of a material, which - in a manner known per se - bioresorbier is bar and therefore in the human body, e.g. B. by Hydrolysis, gradually degrading completely. It is ensured that the spacer elements their radio during and immediately after the operation tion reliably and only gradually the setting of the bone cement is broken down, where then renewable bone tissue the original volumes occupied by the spacer elements fills. On the well-known, on the metallic endo prosthetic molded spacers that are too un desired metal / bone contact, as well as on the known spacers made of plastic material, the remain as a foreign body in the bone and interfere there need not be resorted to.
Besonders bevorzugt sind die Distanzelemente an dem Stiel befestigt, z. B. aufgesteckt. Alternativ lassen sich die Distanzelemente auch als Ring ausbilden oder auf einem Ring ausformen, der auf den Stiel auf gesteckt wird, um den Zwischenraum zwischen Stiel und Knochen für den Zementmantel zu realisieren.The spacer elements on the Stem attached, e.g. B. attached. Alternatively, leave the spacer elements also form as a ring or form on a ring that is on the stem is stuck to the space between stem and realizing bones for the cement mantle.
Am distalen Ende des Stiels läßt sich das Distanzele ment auch als Haube ausbilden, welches auf das freie Stielende aufgesteckt wird.The spacer element can be found at the distal end of the stem ment as a hood, which on the free Stem end is plugged on.
Als bioresorbierbares Material lassen sich z. B. be kannte Polymere auf der Basis organischer Säuren, z. B. Derivate der Milchsäure, Glykolsäure sowie deren Copolymere etc. einsetzen, vgl. z. B. die Buchveröffent lichung "Macromoleculare Biomaterials", CRC Press 1984, S. 119 bis 142, "Bioresorbable Plastic Materials for Bone Surgery" oder "Clinical Materials" 1986, 1, S. 233 bis 257.As a bioabsorbable material such.
