Definitions
- the invention relates to a mechanical protective device for an implant or graft for protection when being introduced into and / or remaining in a living body, an implant having the protective device and its use, preferably for bone replacement or for bone stabilization.
- Such implants are either anchored with a self-curing plastic, the so-called bone cement, or directly press-fit.
- a self-curing plastic the so-called bone cement
- directly press-fit By enlarging the surface, by hollowing out the solid implant body and / or perforating the mostly metal implant surface, a direct anchoring in the bone and subsequent bone ingrowth should be achieved.
- the pure metal surfaces have the disadvantage that the bone does not adhere to these surfaces. This was shown in the scientific work “Research and further training in the surgery of the musculoskeletal system 3" (Draenert and Draenert, Art and Scierce, Kunststoff, 1992).
- By roughening the surfaces with roughnesses of 50-100 ⁇ m it is possible to considerably improve the transfer of the deformation energy from the implant to the bones and to convert these deformations.
- surfaces other than metal surfaces interfere with the bone far more favorably.
- surfaces other than metal surfaces interfere with the bone far more favorably.
- These are, for example, ceramic surfaces and, above all, the hydroxylapatite in its dense form or as a dense coating, as can be achieved with the so-called "HIP process" (hot isostatic pressing) on implants.
- HIP process hot isostatic pressing
- the HIP-coated surfaces showed tangential adherence of the bone around the implant, which made it possible to completely avoid relative movements in the interface between the implant and the bone.
- porous materials for implants which consist, for example, of ceramic.
- these materials consist of a three-dimensional framework made up of trellis-like or shell-like structures which enclose interconnectable and predeterminable adjustable cavities which form an interconnecting pore system.
- This Positive material can be produced, inter alia, by the shell-like structures being formed around shaped bodies which serve as placeholders for the cavities.
- negative structure the materials consist of a conglomerate of molded bodies which are firmly connected to one another via webs. The shape of the negative material essentially corresponds to the pore system of the positive material.
- the object of the invention is to provide a device which mechanically protects an implant or transplant and in particular absorbs laterally acting forces, such as bending or shear forces.
- Another object of the invention is to improve a porous and brittle implant in such a way that satisfactory bending strengths are achieved.
- the invention is based on the basic idea of at least partially surrounding an implant with a jacket or a sleeve, which absorbs the bending stresses acting on the implant.
- the jacket protects the implant both when it is introduced into the bone and also in the bone itself when bending stresses act on the implant.
- This jacket is preferably cylindrical and has an upper and lower open or closed end surface.
- the protective device for implants according to the invention is manufactured with a precise fit around the implant, in the simplest case in the form of a cylindrical sleeve around a cylindrical implant.
- the modulus of elasticity of the protective device as an overall construction can be adjusted by either perforating it in various ways or by manufacturing it from a corresponding material with suitable elasticity.
- the perforations can be designed, for example, as round windows with a diameter of approximately 0.8 to 15 mm, preferably approximately 1 to 2.5 mm.
- the stiffness of the casing and thus also of the entire implant to be inserted into the body can be specifically adjusted for a given casing material by suitable choice of the size, number and arrangement of the windows.
- the sheath as mechanical protection, which has to absorb the bending and shear forces on the implant, is preferably made from a high-strength material, for example from plastic, a high-strength ceramic material, a composite material or from metals; particularly stressed titanium is preferred.
- the modulus of elasticity can be influenced by adjusting the alloy, but also by the overall construction of the jacket, for example in the form of perforated, closed or open cylinders, or slotted cylinders with slots in the transverse, axial or diagonal direction , or a combination of these measures.
- the implant itself forms a kind of inlet in the jacket. If the implant consists of a ceramic material in the described positive or negative structure, for example of tricalcium phosphate or hydroxyapatite, but also of another calcium phosphate or calcium carbonate compound, it has very high compressive strength and can therefore exert pressure on the implant take up very well.
- the jacket surrounding the implant insert makes it possible to permanently protect the brittle inlet against bending and shear stresses.
- the pressure loads should be absorbed by the implantletlet itself, because bony growth of the implants preferably takes place where there is mechanical stress on the implant. Since the mechanical stress is identical to the mechanical resistance of the implant, the ceramic implants can only be stressed optimally under pressure.
- the implant insert preferably projects beyond the jacket or the mechanical protection on its end face, so that compressive forces are absorbed by the implant itself, while the bending forces are absorbed by the jacket of the composite implant consisting of implant and jacket.
- the jacket of the implant can have stiffeners, for example in the form of transverse, longitudinal or diagonal stiffeners, it also being possible to combine different types of stiffeners with one another.
- the stiffeners are preferably in the form of struts on the outer surface of the Coat trained. If the jacket has the shape of a hollow cylinder, the struts can run, for example, along the circumference, in the axial direction or at an angle over the jacket surface.
- the mechanical protective device according to the invention can ideally also be used temporarily, namely around brittle implants, e.g. to protect pure ceramic implants in their positive or negative structure, mechanically against bending and shear forces.
- This temporary mechanical protection can be used as an applicator for brittle implants.
- the applicator consists of a mechanical protective sleeve or jacket, a lid and a plunger.
- the applicator is a packaging required according to the GMP standard, in which the implant can be delivered to the clinics in a single or double welded manner.
- the implant can also be sterilized in this applicator.
- the plunger or stamp has a continuous cannula, so that after removal of the cover by suction through the stamp or plunger, blood and bone marrow can be sucked into the porous implant. In this way, bone ingrowth into the implant can be accelerated.
- the protective device for brittle implants according to the invention is very simple to construct and very efficient in its effect on the implant.
- implants can be produced which, due to the lack of strength, could not previously be produced technically for clinical use, for example implants for connecting two vertebral bodies to one another, as described in the article "Help for the lumbar spine" (newspaper “Die Welt") dated 01/21/94).
- femoral shafts and socket components can also be constructed in a similar way by using hollow shafts or hollow implants or channel-shaped implants with a suitable positive or negative tiv-ceramic implant are connected and thus lead to permanent bony anchoring of the implant in the bone.
- implants can also be temporarily provided with mechanical protection according to the invention.
- the implant jacket must be constructed in such a way that the cuff around the implant can be removed again after the implant has grown through and the bony connection between two vertebral bodies.
- the implant consists, for example, of a ceramic implant made of highly porous tricalcium phosphate in its negative structure, this can also be absorbed so that a restititio ad integrum with respect to the bone is produced.
- the cuff can be removed in a simple manner by connecting a cuff ring in the form of a blind with pins or a hinge. This hinge is then opened and the metal sleeve can be pulled out again via a slit opening.
- the sheath with an external screw thread or to form a spiral, so that after the implant has been waxed in, it can be removed from the bone again by screwing it out without the Bone bridge between the implant and the surrounding bone is lost. Even if the implant with the jacket remains permanently in the bone, bone can grow in through the perforations which are preferably provided in the jacket of the implant and establish a connection between the implant and the surrounding bone.
- the mechanical protection for an at least partially porous implant is produced in that the cavities of the implant are at least partially filled with a reinforcing material in the vicinity of the outer surfaces of the implant; this reinforcing material forms a thin layer in the form of a jacket on the implant surface.
- Such reinforcement can be produced both for a porous implant, which consists of a three-dimensional framework made of shell-like structures, and for an implant made of interconnected molded bodies. In the "positive structure" of the three-dimensional framework, the reinforcing material occupies the cavities of the interconnecting pore system, while in the "negative structure” it is in the form of shell-like structures between the molded bodies.
- the thickness of the layer of the reinforcing material on the surface of the implant preferably corresponds to approximately one to two layers of the shaped bodies in the case of the negative structure or the pores in the case of the positive structure.
- the layer thickness is between approximately 200 and 3000 ⁇ m, preferably between approximately 500 to 2000 ⁇ m, particularly preferably between approximately 1000 to 1200 ⁇ m.
