Method of endoprosthetics of proximal end of femur

Gennady Evtikhievich Dudko

 

Abstract

Изобретение относится к медицине, а именно к ортопедии и травматологии, и используется при эндопротезировании проксимального конца бедренной кости. С целью профилактики смещения головки протеза и обеспечения движения в раннем послеоперационном периоде производят резекцию измененной части бедренной кости, устанавливают полимер-титановый эндопротез, формируют каналы в области дна вертлужной впадины, в головке и шейке эндопротеза, в большом вертеле, проводят через них ленту и фиксируют ее концы.

 

Description

In the lateral position, the hip joint area is opened. The proximal end of the femur is exposed. The head of the femur with the remains of the neck is removed. A bed for the endoprosthesis is formed in the medullary cavity of the femur. Two holes are made with an awl in the subtrochanteric region of the femur for the artificial tape. The polymer-titanium prosthesis is installed by inserting the endoprosthesis stem into the medullary cavity of the femur until it stops in the intertrochanteric region. The remains of the round ligament are removed in the area of ​​the bottom of the acetabulum. A channel with a diameter of 6-8 mm is formed at the place of its attachment with a drill, through which the end of the tape with a dumbbell-shaped stop is inserted into the pelvic cavity. The tape is pulled by the ends and it is made sure that the dumbbell-shaped stop rests against the bottom of the acetabulum. The free ends of the tape are passed through a pre-formed Y-shaped channel in the head and neck of the endoprosthesis and the corresponding holes in the greater trochanter using a wire loop. The head of the endoprosthesis is adjusted into the acetabulum, the hip is bent to an angle of 90° and moved outward as much as possible, the tape is pulled by the ends and tied or sutured in the subtrochanteric region. The damaged structures are sutured layer by layer: the joint capsule, muscles, fascia, subcutaneous tissue and skin. The limb is placed on an orthopedic pillow in a mid-physiological position. Movements in the joint are developed from the second day. After 5-7 days, patients learn to walk on crutches without support on the operated limb.

Example. Patient O., a pensioner, was hospitalized for a closed fracture of the right femoral neck. X-ray showed a subcapital fracture of the right femoral neck with displacement. He was treated with skeletal traction for 5 weeks. The treatment was ineffective. An endoprosthetic replacement surgery was performed using the traditional technique with a polymer-titanium endoprosthesis with the formation of a ligament between the head of the prosthesis and the bottom of the acetabulum using the described technique. The postoperative period was uneventful. Movements in the hip joint began on the second day, on the fifth day he was raised on crutches without support on the operated leg. The stitches were removed on the 12th day. He was examined two years later: he walks freely, over long distances without a cane. He fully cares for himself. There is no shortening of the limb. Range of motion in the operated joint: flexion 80°, extension 175°, abduction 35°, outward rotation 35°, inward rotation - 15°. Control radiographs of the right hip joint show no signs of arthrosis, the endoprosthesis stem is in the bone marrow cavity, oriented toward the center of the acetabulum. There are no signs of osteoporosis or subluxation. Five people were operated on using this technique with good results.

Thus, the proposed method prevents displacement of the endoprosthesis head during unipolar endoprosthetics and ensures patient activation in the early postoperative period.

Human LCF intersection

HUMAN LCF INTERSECTION In the south of China, in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the archaeological Neolithic site of Dingsishan was investigated. Burials of 355 people were found in this place. The authors of the article (2024YeZ_LiFJ) identified 91 skeletons with traces of manipulations with the remains. They are attributed to burials of the Dingsishan III-IV phase, aged 8.0-4.5 thousand years. 13 notches were found on the proximal part of various femurs. « Cutmarks on the femoral head, neck and intertrochanteric line, as well as along the medial linea aspera of the femoral shaft, suggest that soft tissue around the hip, including the iliofemoral ligament and the iliacus and adductor muscles, was severed to disarticulate the joint.» This and other postmortem bone injuries «... suggests that corpse treatment at Dingsishan included disarticulation » (2024YeZ_LiFJ).  Figure 4 of the cited article shows the distribution and direction of cutmarks on human skeletons from Dingx...

The First Scientific Mention

  European science has known the LCF for about 2500 years. It is the most important functional connection of the hip joint. The first person to describe the LCF was Hippocrates (c. 460-370 BCE). A written mention of the LCF is found in §1 of his treatise "On the Instrument of redactions". In our opinion, a book created in the library of the Asclepeion of the island of Kos. Hippocrates did not dissection of the human body, did not operate on the hip joint, did not have a CT scan and MRI. How he could discover the LCF? In our view, it is possible that Hippocrates treated a patient with an open hip dislocation.

If the dislocated and displaced hip could not remain in place, then the physician [Hippocrates] would have clearly indicated the incurability of this case, so that we would not be led astray. Don't those who hold the opposite opinion know about the nature of joints, ligaments and the teachings about these things in general? After all, the physician considered the cause of the mild or, on the contrary, complex displacement and ...

1899ParsonsFG

  An excerpt from the article by Parsons FG. The joints of mammals compared with those of man: a course of lectures delivered at the Royal College of Surgeons of England (1899, pp. 301-306). The paper discusses the anatomy and presence of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) in different animals. The author found in an experiment that in kangaroos, the LCF was stretched during hip extension. Below we publish an excerpt from the abstract and a critique of the lecture in the Lancet.   THEJOINTS OF MAMMALS COMPARED WITH THOSE OF MAN: A COUBSE OF LECTURES DELIVERED AT THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS OF ENGLAND.

SOME of the chief points which attract attention in the hip joint of man are the three thickened parts of the capsule called the ilio-femoral, ischio-femoral, and pubo-femoral ligaments, as well as the intra-articular ligamentum teres running from the bottom of the ac...

Homo antecessor. Hip disarticulation

  HOMO ANTECESSOR. Hip disarticulation Postmortem separation of the leg from the pelvis in individuals of own species was performed by our evolutionary predecessors. In particular, this was done in the Homo antecessor community, which practiced cannibalism (2003TuttC). Ferna Y. et al. (1999) described evidence of intentional crushing of the femur diaphysis in a young individual (ATD6-76), presumably to extract bone marrow. The bone retained traces of not only several impacts by a striker, but also of an anvil on which the bone lay. The age of the said find in the Gran Dolina cave (Spain) is estimated at about 780 thousand years (1999FernaY_RosellJ). The above features indicate that the femur was initially separated from the soft tissues. In the second stage, the butcher had to use a stone tool to cut the muscles and strong external ligaments of the hip joint. In the next stage, he tore, or perhaps cut off, the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) to mobilize the hip and further manipul...

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).
