Description
L'invention concerne un implant de réparation tendineuse et capsulo-The invention relates to a tendon and capsular repair implant.
ligamentaire applicable, par exemple, à la réparation de la coiffe des rotateurs de l'épaule et à la réparation des lésions capsuloligamentaires de l'épaule. Ce type de réparation nécessite de replacer, en les fixant en bonne positon, les tendons rompus et les ligaments désinsérés au niveau de l'épaule. A cette fin, tendons et ligaments sont mis en traction à l'aide de ligament applicable, for example, to the repair of the rotator cuff of the shoulder and to the repair of capsuloligamentary lesions of the shoulder. This type of repair requires replacing, by fixing them in the correct position, the ruptured tendons and the ligaments disinserted at the level of the shoulder. To this end, tendons and ligaments are put in traction using
fils de suture, afin de les amener en bonne situation anatomique. sutures, to bring them in good anatomical position.
Dans la technique actuelle, le maintien de la tension nécessite de nouer les fils de suture, ce qui est très difficile à réaliser dans le cadre d'une intervention par arthroscopie. De plus, il s'avère que les noeuds ont tendance à se relâcher en réduisant la mise en traction et en affectant ainsi In the current technique, maintaining tension requires tying the sutures, which is very difficult to perform in the context of an arthroscopic intervention. In addition, it turns out that the nodes tend to loosen, reducing the pull and thereby affecting
la réparation.the repair.
La présente invention a pour objet de remédier à ces inconvénients opératoires et postopératoires en fournissant un implant de réparation améliorant le maintien des fils de suture tout en supprimant la réalisation de noeuds et cela aussi bien pour des interventions par The object of the present invention is to remedy these operational and postoperative drawbacks by providing a repair implant improving the maintenance of the sutures while eliminating the creation of knots and this as well for interventions by
arthrotomie que par arthroscopie.arthrotomy only by arthroscopy.
A cet effet, I'implant selon l'invention est constitué par un clou impactable dans un logement cylindrique foré dans une partie osseuse et dont le corps cylindrique est traversé, d'une part et longitudinalement, par un canal axial et, d'autre part et transversalement, par au moins un canal radial traversable par au moins l'un des brins d'un fil de suture ou permettant d'introduire ce brin dans le canal axial, tandis que sa tête est munie d'une rainure diamétrale de protection des extrémités des brins des fils de suture, ledit corps comportant, extérieurement et entre le canal radial et la tête, des bourrelets annulaires superposés aptes à coincer les brins de fil de suture contre la paroi du logement après impaction complète du corps To this end, the implant according to the invention consists of an impactable nail in a cylindrical housing drilled in a bone part and whose cylindrical body is traversed, on the one hand and longitudinally, by an axial channel and, on the other share and transversely, by at least one radial channel traversable by at least one of the strands of a suture thread or making it possible to introduce this strand into the axial channel, while its head is provided with a diametrical protective groove of the ends of the strands of the sutures, said body comprising, externally and between the radial channel and the head, superimposed annular beads capable of wedging the strands of suture against the wall of the housing after complete impaction of the body
du clou dans ce logement.of the nail in this housing.
Après réalisation du logement dans la partie osseuse, jouxtant la structure ligamentaire ou tendineuse défaillante, et mise en place, dans cette structure, d'au moins un fil de suture, I'une ou les extrémités des deux brins du fil sont engagées dans le canal radial, ou par ce canal dans le canal axial de l'implant. Après engagement par impaction de cet implant dans le logement osseux, jusqu'à sensiblement le canal radial du corps, il est procédé à la mise en tension des deux brins du fil de suture, puis au blocage de ces brins. Cette dernière opération s'effectue lors de l'impaction complète du corps de l'implant par coincement des brins de ce fil entre la paroi du logement et les bourrelets annulaires du corps. Ce coincement, qui est instantané, est très efficace puisqu'il s'effectue en plusieurs points de chaque brin de fil. After completion of the housing in the bone part, adjoining the failing ligament or tendon structure, and placement, in this structure, of at least one suture thread, one or the ends of the two strands of the thread are engaged in the radial channel, or through this channel in the axial channel of the implant. After engagement by impaction of this implant in the bone housing, up to substantially the radial channel of the body, the two strands of the suture are tensioned, then these strands are locked. This last operation is carried out during the complete impaction of the body of the implant by wedging the strands of this wire between the wall of the housing and the annular beads of the body. This jamming, which is instantaneous, is very effective since it takes place at several points on each strand of wire.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description qui The invention will be better understood using the description which
suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé, représentant une forme follows, with reference to the attached schematic drawing, representing a form
d'exécution de cet implant.of this implant.
Figures 1 et 2 sont des vues, respectivement de côté et en élévation et en coupe transversale suivant 11-11 de figure 1, d'une forme d'exécution du clou, Figures 3 à 8 sont des vues en coupe partielle montrant, à échelle réduite quelques unes des phases de la réparation ligamentaire de la Figures 1 and 2 are views, respectively from the side and in elevation and in cross section along 11-11 of Figure 1, of an embodiment of the nail, Figures 3 to 8 are views in partial section showing, on a scale reduced some of the phases of ligament repair
coiffe des rotateurs de l'épaule.rotator cuff of the shoulder.
Comme montré sur les figures 1 et 2, cet implant est constitué par un clou impactable 1 comportant, de facçon générale, un corps cylindrique 2 et une tête 3. Le corps est traversé longitudinalement et de part en part par un canal axial 4. Il est traversé transversalement par un canal radial 5, disposé sensiblement à mi longueur, et par une fente diamétrale 6 s'étendant depuis son extrémité libre opposée à la tête 3 jusqu'au dessous du canal radial 5, c'est-à-dire sans déboucher dans ce canal. La zone de matière 7, disposée entre le canal radial 5 et la fente 6, est munie d'un arrondi de grand rayon 8. La figure 1 montre que, en section transversale, le canal radial 5 présente une forme oblongue orientée longitudinalement et composée d'une partie supérieure 5a de plus grand diamètre que la partie inférieure 5b. Toutes les arêtes du canal 5 respectivement, intérieures 9 avec le canal 4 et extérieures 10 avec le As shown in Figures 1 and 2, this implant is constituted by an impactable nail 1 comprising, generally, a cylindrical body 2 and a head 3. The body is traversed longitudinally and right through by an axial channel 4. It is crossed transversely by a radial channel 5, disposed substantially at mid-length, and by a diametrical slot 6 extending from its free end opposite the head 3 to the underside of the radial channel 5, that is to say without lead into this channel. The area of material 7, disposed between the radial channel 5 and the slot 6, is provided with a rounded large radius 8. FIG. 1 shows that, in cross section, the radial channel 5 has an oblong shape oriented longitudinally and composed an upper part 5a of larger diameter than the lower part 5b. All edges of channel 5 respectively, interior 9 with channel 4 and exterior 10 with the
corps sont arrondies ou cassées pour ne pas présenter d'angle vif. bodies are rounded or broken so as not to have a sharp angle.
Le corps cylindrique 2 comporte, au-delà du débouché du canal radial 5 et plus précisément au-delà de la zone de matière 7 et jusqu'à son extrémité libre, des crans périphériques d'ancrage 12. Entre la base du The cylindrical body 2 comprises, beyond the outlet of the radial channel 5 and more precisely beyond the area of material 7 and up to its free end, peripheral anchoring notches 12. Between the base of the
canal radial et la tête 3, le corps 2 est muni de bourrelets périphériques 1 3. radial channel and the head 3, the body 2 is provided with peripheral beads 1 3.
Sa tête 3 est traversée par une fente diamétrale 14 qui communique avec Its head 3 is crossed by a diametrical slot 14 which communicates with
le canal axial 4 du corps.the axial channel 4 of the body.
Il est précisé que le canal axial 4 a un diamètre intérieur qui est supérieur à celui d'une broche-guide 15 associée à une tarière 16 utilisée pour forer un logement 17 (figures 4 et 6) dans la structure osseuse 18 juxtaposée à la structure ligamentaire défaillante 1 9. A titre d'exemple, le diamètre du canal axial 4 est de l'ordre de 2 mm pour une broche 15 ayant It is specified that the axial channel 4 has an internal diameter which is greater than that of a guide pin 15 associated with an auger 16 used to drill a housing 17 (Figures 4 and 6) in the bone structure 18 juxtaposed with the structure failing ligament 1 9. As an example, the diameter of the axial channel 4 is of the order of 2 mm for a spindle 15 having
un diamètre extérieur de 0,6 ou 0,8 mm. an outside diameter of 0.6 or 0.8 mm.
La réparation de la coiffe 19 des rotateurs de l'épaule s'effectue de la façon représentée figures 3 à 8. L'humérus 18 est d'abord foré au moyen de la tarière 16 associée à sa broche guide 15, pour réaliser le The repair of the cap 19 of the shoulder rotators is carried out as shown in Figures 3 to 8. The humerus 18 is first drilled by means of the auger 16 associated with its guide pin 15, to achieve the
logement 17 d'ancrage osseux (figure 3). housing 17 for bone anchoring (FIG. 3).
Lors du retrait de la tarière 16, la broche est laissée dans le logement 17 (figure 4), puis, comme montré figure 5, le fil de ligature 20 est mis en place dans la coiffe 19. Dans la forme d'exécution représentée, les deux brins 20a, 20b du fil sont passés, par le canal radial 5, dans le canal axial 4, puis tirés, de manière à sortir par la tête 3 (figure 6). Dans une variante non représentée et dépendant des conditions opératoires, les brins 20a, 20b sont seulement engagés dans le canal radial 15 qu'ils traversent. L'implant 1 est alors mis en place dans le logement d'ancrage 1 7, en étant guidé par la broche 15. Comme montré figure 7, il est impacté jusqu'à mi longueur, c'est-à-dire de manière que le canal radial 5 reste hors When removing the auger 16, the pin is left in the housing 17 (FIG. 4), then, as shown in FIG. 5, the ligature wire 20 is put in place in the cap 19. In the embodiment shown, the two strands 20a, 20b of the wire are passed, through the radial channel 5, into the axial channel 4, then pulled, so as to exit through the head 3 (FIG. 6). In a variant not shown and depending on the operating conditions, the strands 20a, 20b are only engaged in the radial channel 15 which they pass through. The implant 1 is then placed in the anchoring housing 1 7, being guided by the spindle 15. As shown in FIG. 7, it is impacted to mid-length, that is to say so that the radial channel 5 remains out
du logement.housing.
Lors de cette impaction, la fente 6 permet aux deux parties crantées du corps 2 de reculer pour s'insérer dans le logement 17 avant de revenir élastiquement et radialement pour engager les crans 12 dans la During this impaction, the slot 6 allows the two notched parts of the body 2 to move back to be inserted in the housing 17 before returning elastically and radially to engage the notches 12 in the
paroi du logement.housing wall.
Ensuite les deux brins 20a, 20b du fil de suture sont tendus, puis, comme montré figure 8, I'implant est enfoncé par impaction jusqu'à l'appui de sa tête 3 sur l'humérus.Cette impaction est réalisée à l'aide d'un poussoir tubulaire avec un alésage axial dont le diamètre est plus grand que celui de la broche. Elle assure la mise en tension et le blocage des deux brins du fil de suture et la fixation des structures en bonne position. La Then the two strands 20a, 20b of the suture are stretched, then, as shown in FIG. 8, the implant is pressed by impaction until the support of its head 3 on the humerus. This impaction is carried out with using a tubular lifter with an axial bore whose diameter is larger than that of the spindle. It ensures the tensioning and blocking of the two strands of the suture and the fixing of structures in good position. The
broche est retirée et l'excédent de fil est alors sectionné. pin is removed and the excess wire is then cut.
Durant l'impaction finale, les arêtes arrondies du corps de During the final impaction, the rounded edges of the body of
l'implant ne tendent pas à sectionner les brins de suture. the implant does not tend to sever the suture strands.
Cet implant permet: - de réaliser l'intervention par arthroscopie (sans ouvrir l'articulation), mais aussi par arthrotomie, - de supprimer la réalisation de noeuds, difficiles à faire par arthroscopie et n'assurant pas, le plus souvent, une bonne fixation, (tendance au relâchement), This implant makes it possible: - to perform the intervention by arthroscopy (without opening the joint), but also by arthrotomy, - to eliminate the creation of knots, difficult to do by arthroscopy and most often not ensuring good fixation, (tendency to loosen),
- de raccourcir le temps d'intervention chirurgicale. - to shorten the surgical intervention time.
Il peut être utilisé pour d'autres réparations ligamentaires localisées à d'autres endroits que l'épaule. It can be used for other ligament repairs located in places other than the shoulder.
