Description

This invention relates to orthopedics, and more particularly to prosthetic joints and may be used to replace a damaged hip joint.

Known full prosthetic hip joint, comprising acetabular and femoral components, the latter of which is provided with a cylindrical-conical shank with two blades and the cup acetabular component is provided with a five-beveled blades with through holes, providing biological binding it in the acetabulum without cement basin (1).

The disadvantage of this prosthesis is that the fixation of the stem in the medullary canal of the femur is not enough tough and eventually weakens. This leads to the need to replace the prosthesis shank or additional strengthening in the medullary canal.

The closest in technical essence and the achieved effect of the proposed hip joint prosthesis is a total hip prosthesis, adopted by the author for the prototype and the contents acetabular and femoral components acetabulum which is formed of two elements, namely a metal body, cemented or screwed, and the insert of polyethylene (2).

The disadvantage of a hip prosthesis is that the acetabulum is inserted into the pelvic bone with cement or screwed into it without additional fixation. It is therefore possible displacement of the acetabulum in the course of its operation from the originally installed position.

The aim of the invention is to reduce the operation time on total joint arthroplasty, increasing the reliability of fixation, joint prosthesis constraint from surrounding tissue and a reduction of possible complications.

The goal is achieved in that the complete prosthetic hip joint comprising a femoral and acetabular components, which are pivotally interconnected, the outer surface of the acetabular component is provided with threads and grooves having a through-hole, and the hinge itself is formed integrally by the fact that the joint socket head covers more than half of its surface, the head of the femoral component of the hinge is integral with its hollow shank formed as a collet which wedges diluted via element regulation, the threaded and screwed into the inner shank passage, the upper end of which is provided with a rim, into the holes of the acetabular component of grooves includes a head socket protrusions joint femoral component, and the grooves of the acetabular component inserted fastening elements made from memory metal, in addition, with socket joint head and the shank surface is connected a flexible sleeve filled with fluid bioinert and acetabular component is provided with a rim that prevents protrusion acetabular component and in the pelvis.

FIG. 1 a general view of a hip prosthesis assembly; FIG. 2 - regulating member divergence collet wedges; FIG. 3 the cross section of FIG. A 1 to A; FIG. 4 shows a section of FIG. B 1 to B; FIG. 5 perspective view of the femoral component with the integral hinge; FIG. 6 acetabular component; FIG. 7 perspective view of the acetabular component assembly; FIG. 8 fastening element acetabular component in the active state;  FIG. 9 fastening element acetabular inoperative.

Full hip prosthesis structure SV Arhipova femoral component 1 comprises a shank 2 which is a hollow shaped tube 3 with a threaded neck 4. 5 of the femoral component 1 is attached the head of the hinge 6, which is inserted into the socket 7, the outer surface of which is provided with projections 8.

The lower part of the shank 2 is in the form of the collet 9, the distance between the wedges 10, which varies the adjustment member 11 whose upper part is provided with threads 12 and hexagon head 13, and the bottom is formed as a cone 14. To increase the stability of the femoral component 1 into the medullary canal its upper end provided with a rim 15. With the hinge shaft 2 and the socket 7 is connected to a flexible hose 16 filled with liquid bioinert 17. Furthermore the shank 2 is provided with a derotation edges 18 and grooves 19.

Acetabular component 20 is provided with threaded recesses 21 and 22 in which the set of fastening elements 23 with locking hooks 24, 25 and 26 and the rim 27 and grooves 22 have openings 28.

This complete hip prosthesis set as follows. The shank 2 of the femoral component 1 with a pre-screwed into the adjusting element 11 it introducing into the medullary canal of the femur and the head 13 is rotated for the adjustment member 11. In this case, moving along the vertical axis, the latter with its conical part 14 spreads to the side wedges 10 of the collet 9 which are resting on the wall of the medullary canal bone, femoral component 1 is fixed.

Acetabular component prosthesis 20 is collected by inserting into the grooves 22 of fastening elements 23, are in working order. The assembled acetabular component 20 is cooled for fixing the transfer elements 23 in the inoperative condition, is screwed into the pretreated acetabular pelvic cavity and connected to the femoral component 1. In this case the projections 8 of seat 7 of the head 6 includes a hinge hole 28 grooves 22 of the acetabular component 20. The surrounding tissue prosthesis heated fastening elements 23 and transfer them to a working state wherein the latches 24, 25, and 26 are bent in accordance with a configuration of metal embedded in memory, from which they are made. Catches 25 and 26 are introduced additionally securing the acetabular component in the pelvic bone 20 and retainers 24 secured to the acetabular component 20, socket head 7 of the hinge 6 of the femoral component 1. After implantation, the prosthesis is sutured incision.

When loosening of the femoral component 1 during the operation of the proposed prosthetic hip after tissue dissection thigh spin up hexagonal head 13 for adjustment member 11 so that the wedges 10 of the collet 9 dispersed, reinforcing one femoral component in the medullary canal of the femur. Then the incision was sutured.

If necessary, retrieving the femoral component 1 of the acetabular component 20 is cooled, and then folded tabs 24 and release the femoral component 1 from the fixation of the acetabular component 20.

If it is necessary to remove the acetabular component 20 from the acetabulum of the pelvis after separation of the above parts of the prosthesis is cooled entire acetabular component 20 with fastening members 23 that needs to last deactivated and allows unimpeded twist acetabular component 20 from the bone.

A similar construction may be used after changing the sizes of its components for a shoulder joint prosthesis.

Among the discovered remains of a female Homo floresiensis  ( humanorigins . si . edu )  there is a relatively well-preserved left pelvic bone (LB1/7). It has a « typically human » acetabulum (2009JungersWL_DjubiantonoT:Fig.3). The acetabulum has a complete fusion of the three bones that form it and is not hypoplastic (2012BrownP:Fig.4). The acetabular fossa is rounded and deep, continuing downwards and forwards as a wide acetabular notch. This area is the site of attachment and func...

The First Animals

  THE FIRST ANIMALS According to molecular clock data, the separation of the Animal Kingdom from the Plant Kingdom occurred 1609±60 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). Molecular estimates indicate that the last common ancestor of multicellular representatives of the fauna (Metazoa) was Neoproterozoic, most likely younger than 800 million years (2015PisaniD_LiuAG). Biomarkers of metazoan living systems identified in sedimentary deposits indicate their presence in the seas since the Cryogenian period (2018ZumbergeJA_SummonsRE), which began around approximately 720 Ma (2023CohenKM_CarN). Multicellular animals were part of early Ediacaran ecosystems and are found below layers dated to 632.5 ± 0.5 Ma (2007Yin_LHuJ). The oldest fossil of a multicellular organism resembling a sponge (Porifera) is about 600 Ma (2015YinZ_TafforeauP). The last Neoproterozoic glaciation (about 582 Ma) coincides with the appearance of complex organisms in the fossil record (2007BowringSA_AllenPA). Ev...

To save his family and terrestrial animals, Noah builds an ark measuring "three hundred cubits" long, "fifty cubits" wide, and "thirty cubits" high, coated with pitch inside and out. The vessel has three decks, a pyramidal roof, a side door, and a window, likely at the top. Noah loads his wife, three sons with their wives, and representatives of birds, reptiles, and "clean and unclean cattle."
