Endoprosthesis of proximal epimethaphysis of femur bone

Valentin Dmitrievich Perepichka

Abstract

The invention relates to medical equipment, namely to traumatology, and can be used for hip joint replacement. The purpose of the invention is to prevent dislocation of the endoprosthesis from the acetabulum. The invention consists of a metal-polymer curved stem 2, placed in the medullary canal of the femur. Several holes are made on its surface in two mutually perpendicular planes, which are filled with plastic. A spherical head 3 is attached to the stem 2 using a thread, the position of which is fixed with additional screws. The head of the prosthesis contains a through channel 6, which then passes through the stem and ends on the femur. A continuous large-mesh lavsan tape 8 is passed through this channel, one end of which is fixed to the bottom of the acetabulum using a washer 10, and the other end, after exiting the channel, is disconnected and passed through additionally drilled holes in the prosthesis stem and bone and ends with wrapping the femur and tying it with a taut knot. The endoprosthesis allows for stable and constant fixation of the prosthesis stem in the medullary canal and prevents possible dislocations of the head from the acetabulum.

Description

The invention relates to medicine, more specifically to traumatology, and can be used for hip replacement in case of femur fractures or joint diseases.

The purpose of the invention is to prevent dislocation of the endoprosthesis from the acetabulum.

Fig. 1 shows the prosthesis after surgery, general view; Fig. 2 - metal-polymer stem and head, general view; 10 in Fig. 3 - acetabulum, front view; in Fig. 4 - section A - A in Fig. 3; in Fig. 5 - washer with holes for fixing lavsan tape in the acetabulum, front view; in Fig. 6 - washer with holes for fixing lavsan tape in the acetabulum, side view.

The endoprosthesis of the proximal epimetaphysis of the femur 1 (Fig. 1) contains a metal-polymer stem 2, to which a spherical head 3 is screwed (Figs. 1 20 and 2). On the surface of the stem 2 a row of holes 4 are made in two mutually perpendicular planes, filled with plastic. The head 3 is fixed in its final position with screws 5. A through channel 6 is made through the head 3, the threaded shank and the metal stem 2, and holes 7 are made in all the holes 4 (Figs. 1 and 2). A double large-mesh lavsan tape 8 with a width of 6 - 7 mm is pulled through the channel 6 and the holes 7, and the tape is tightly fixed on the surface of the acetabulum 9 with the help of a washer 10 (Figs. 5 and 6) with two holes for passing the lavsan tape 8 (Figs. 5 and 6). To do this, a hole 11 is made in the acetabulum 9, where the round ligament itself was located, and a gap 2 is cut (Figs. 3 and 4). The washer 10 is pushed through the hole 11, and the lavsan tape together with the washer O is advanced into the gap 12. Thus, the lavsan tape is tightly fixed in the acetabulum. The hole 11 is closed with a transplant. Through the opening of the channel 6, a through hole 13 is drilled through the bone 1, after which the lavsan tape, fixed on the bottom of the acetabulum, is passed through the channel 6 onto the surface of the bone 1, where it is fixed with a knot 14, through the bone 1 and the leg of the prosthesis in places where it is filled with polymer, holes 7 are drilled in two mutually perpendicular planes, the tape 8 is separated into two parts and passed through the holes 7. At the end, the bone is braided with the tape 8 (Fig. 1) and fixed with a weaver's knot 15 (Fig. 1). The section of the double tape 8 between the head 3 and the acetabulum 9 forms an artificial ligament 16 (Fig. 1). The bone is braided with maximum tension. After 12-14 days, the lavsan tape, as a foreign body of the body, begins to be covered with a connective tissue capsule, which increases the strength of fixation of the prosthesis leg.

The endoprosthesis creates a positive effect, consisting in stable fixation of the prosthesis leg in the medullary canal of the femur, and this is achieved for the first time by fixing it with the help of lavsan tape by tying. Fixation is carried out with a material soft compared to bone, which eliminates the effect of this material on the bone during the life of the patient and does not allow the prosthesis leg to loosen. An important feature of the semi-prosthesis is the creation of an artificial round ligament, which prevents the likelihood of dislocation of the prosthesis and relieves the patient from operations aimed at eliminating these dislocations.

Claims

An endoprosthesis for the proximal epimetaphysis of the femur, comprising a curved metal-polymer stem, on the surface of which, in two mutually perpendicular planes, openings are made, filled with plastic, a spherical head, connected to the stem by means of a thread, characterized in that, in order to prevent dislocation of the endoprosthesis from the acetabulum, a large-mesh tape with a washer is inserted into it for fastening to the bottom of the acetabulum, and a through channel is made in the spherical head for laying the large-mesh tape.

Catalog. Classifications of LCF Pathology

The classifications are intended to systematize of ligamentum capitis femoris pathology and assist in the development of general approaches to its description, registration, analysis and treatment. Keywords ligamentum capitis femoris, ligamentum teres, ligament of head of femur, hip joint, histology, pathological anatomy, pathology, trauma INTRODUCTION In Russia, the initial attempts to classify pathology of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) were made by morphologists. The development of arthroscopic surgery has made it possible to identify various, previously undescribed types of LCF pathology, which prompted the development of various modern classifications based on intraoperative observations. Analysis of literature data and our own morphological observations allowed us to propose a General Classification of the Ligamentum Teres Pathology, which has the form of a collection of classifiers, as well as a Classification of Functions of the Ligamentum Teres.

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.

LCF in English Bibles

The primary source for translating the Bible into English is the Hebrew literary monument Torah. In its first part, the Book of Bereshit (32:33 ) , there is a mention of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), which in Hebrew is called « גיד » (gheed, gid) (1923, 2004PreussJ; 2019ArkhipovSV_SkvortsovDV; 2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV). Probably one of the earliest written translations of the Bible into Old English was made by Ælfric of Eynsham, who worked approximately between 955–1010 CE (1050Aelfric’s). In Aelfric's Anglo-Saxon Paraphrase, the Hebrew concept of « גיד » [gheed], that is, LCF, is mentioned twice in the 25th and 32nd verses of the XXXII Chapter of the Book of Genesis and is called «sine» ( Figure 1, 2 ). In Middle English, translators Nicholas of Hereford and John Wycliffe named LCF as «synwe», and in John Purvey's Bible edition - «senewe» (1850ForshallJ_MaddenF). In Bibles in Early Modern English, LCF is designated as «senow» and «senowe» (1530TyndaleW; 1535CoverdaleM; 1...

The Shortest Comments on Genesis, Chap. XXXII-XXXIII

The chosen fragment records ancient views on the symptoms, mechanism, and differential diagnosis of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) injury. The author describes the emotional status, work capacity of the patient, circumstances, time, and place of the injury, as a physician in the modern medical record (Genesis 32:8-33:20). Further in the text, apparently, a pathoanatomical investigation is mentioned, confirming the antemortem diagnosis, place of dissection (Genesis 50:2-3), as well as the location of the burial of embalmed remains (Genesis 50:13). Our comments on chapters 32-33 are presented in the table. The quotes are based on the translation of the Book of Bereshit (Genesis) from Hebrew by Isaac Leeser (1922). The shortest comments Quotes from the original source Emotional status and the name of injured person. 32:8 Then Jacob was greatly afraid, and he felt distress...
