Definitions
- the object of the invention refers to the field of intervertebral implants as a complement to carry out the immobilization between two adjacent vertebrae, by means of the introduction between them of an intersomatic box.
- Intervertebral implants by means of an intersomatic cage are known in the state of the art, adopt various preferred forms and are an efficient method of achieving separation of the vertebrae when the intervertebral disc has degenerated.
- This type of operations provides for the removal of the necessary part of the intervertebral disc and its replacement by a piece that is called the intersomatic cage, which maintains the intervertebral separation, thereby preventing the compression of the spinal cord and the nerves that leave the same.
- said box is designed in such a way that it includes in its upper and lower faces, that is to say those that make contact with the vertebrae, a tooth that sticks on the vertebra itself and avoids the possible sliding between them and the intersomatic box.
- the present invention aims and achieves, to eliminate all the problems indicated in the state of the art, for which a first objective of the invention is an improved intersomatic case. It is also the object of the invention the insertion clamps of this interbody fusion cage in the intervertebral cavity which, on the one hand, allow the box to be firmly held and cause a rotational movement of intervertebral introduction less invasive than the traditional one.
- These holes or grooves are rounded or circular in shape and the prominent ends of the clamps fit into them. These holes or slits may have external frustoconical areas that facilitate movement between the arms of the clamp and the intersomatic box.
- the clamps will grip the intersomatic box in its introduction towards the vertebrae, thereby eliminating possible risks that the box can be released.
- the interbody frames have both straight and parallel curved teeth on their upper and lower faces that will achieve the grip of the box on the vertebrae, having that curved the mission that the teeth when the movement introduces the box into the intervertebral space occurs which is intended to be carried out, provided that this curved profile of the teeth facilitates the introduction by turning the interbody frames.
- the profile of the teeth is made without flattening the ridges of the teeth and defining tooth profiles in which on both sides they are similar on both flanks, since this will not prevent the recoil of the intersomatic box since turning the it follows the normal profile of the teeth, but it will prevent in a great way that there is displacement of the united vertebrae.
- a second object of the invention is found in the clamps for fastening and introducing the interbody fusion cages in the intervertebral space.
- These tweezers are constituted by two arms articulated together in a central point, a joint that has the possibility of relative sliding between both arms. This relative displacement between the arms of
- the clamp allows, when holding the intersomatic box with the movable ends of the clamp, the mentioned box rotates on the clamping axis of
- the rear ends of the clamp have a device for regulating the movement of the clamp arms.
- This device essentially consists of a threaded torm on one of the arms of the clamp, a drive control of said screw set in contrast and a lowered intermediate area where the other arm of the other clamp is introduced, which has the form of a channel that fits in the recessed portion of the drive device. Therefore, a turn in one direction or another of the regulating device would achieve a sliding of both arms of the caliper body.
- the clamp is completed with the inclusion of a copying element that reproduces the shape and holding position of the intersomatic box by the clamps.
- This copying element is attached in its central position and rotatably to one of the arms of the clip, while on the periphery of the copying element an arm is attached articulated to the other arm of the clip, reproducing in the element Copier a turn identical to that produced by the intersomatic box held by the ends of the clip.
- the arms of the clamp slide between them, the rotation of the intersomatic box is produced and therefore of the copying element, reproducing externally and so that the operating doctor sees it, the situation in which the intersomatic box is located between the vertebrae, which will be hidden from the view of the doctor who is operating.
- This device is extremely useful since it will not be necessary to perform multiple radiographs of the area to see the placement of the box with the danger of exposure to X-rays.
- the method of fastening the intersomatic box is also the subject of the invention and includes the following operations
- Figure 1 represents a perspective view from several angles of an interbody cage that includes the improvements of the invention
- Figure 2 represents four views of a top view of the clamps of the invention with the sequence of the operation. Between the arms of the clamp, the intersomatic box is taken and the arms of the clamp are squeezed until it clicks, at this moment the intersomatic box has been completely pinched so that, even leaving the clamp, it is still making the grip force on the intersomatic box. That is, it takes the intersomatic box and maintains it.
- Figure 3 represents three sequential views of the movement of the tip of
- Figure 4 represents a perspective view of the clip holding an intersomatic box.
- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of an intersomatic box (1) that includes the improvements of the invention.
- This box in this example, has a lobular shape with a central hollow (2) and both on the upper and lower face that are those that make contact with the vertebrae have straight or curved teeth (3) in the form of a tooth of saw that will be embedded in the vertebrae preventing the movement of the vertebrae with each other.
- a hole or recess (4) is made that can be through to the central hollow area (2), which can be limited externally by a conical frustoconical recess (5 ) as observed in the sequential figures of Figure 3 where the relative position occupied by the ends of the clamps and the intersomatic box makes this truncated cone (5) necessary to allow free movement of the intersomatic box.
- the front end (9) of the tips of the clip is adapted to be inserted in the holes or recesses (4).
- the rear end of the clamp arms are arched at a steep angle to define two ends
- the copying device (16) is incorporated on one of the arms of the clip (6) and rotatably held through the axis (17), while at the periphery of the copying device (16) it is attached to a cam ( 18) which is held on the other arm of the clip (7).
- the sliding between the arms of the clip will cause the copying device to rotate, which by having a representation similar to the placement of the intersomatic box between the ends of the clip, the operating doctor will at all times have exact information on the This position occupies that box between the vertebrae, avoiding the continuous exposure to X-rays that traditional interventions require since they do not know the placement of the intersomatic box at all times.
- the copying device (16) has regulation (not shown in the figures) by means of a screw, which allows the variation of this device to be placed in the same position in which the intersomatic box is held.
- the cam (18) is also constituted as a displacement element of the copying device in a spring opening and closing element of the clamp.
- the flexion of the tweezers causes the clamping to be maintained on the intersomatic box, although the pressure normally exerted on the arms of the clamp is released.
- the design of the clamp is such that it allows the total disassembly thereof, without the need for tools, in order to achieve a better cleaning thereof.
- Figure 3 shows three representations of how the sliding between the ends (9) of the arms of the clamp (6) (7), causes the rotation of the intersomatic box (1), for that such ends of the clamps will have some recesses (19) where the sides of the boxes fit and define extreme seating positions of the said interbody compartment.
- Figure 4 represents a perspective view of the clip (20) holding the intersomatic box (1).
- This figure allows the arms (6) and (7) to be observed, holding the intersomatic box through the ends (9) and how the joint axis between the arms (6) and (7) constitutes a sliding coupling (8) .
- the copying device (16) that carries the upper form (21) with the similar placement of the intersomatic box and how this copying device (16) is guided by the action of a cam (18).
