Problems solved by technology

However, the above-mentioned works all use high-molecular polymer materials, so there are disadvantages such as poor bone conduction ability, easy degradation and degeneration, and unstable mechanical properties.
The use of sintered hydroxyapatite increases the risk of brittle fracture of the fusion cage

Abstract

The invention provides an interbody fusion cage for posterior lumbar spinal surgery and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the application field of biomedical composite materials. The rectangular interbody fusion cage has side surface drainage through-holes, end surface chamfers, and triangle toothed structures on the upper and the bottom surfaces. The preparation method comprises the following steps of profiling the interbody fusion cage with carbon / carbon composite material as target, and preparing hydroxyapatite coating layers on the upper and the bottom surfaces of the interbody fusion cage sequentially by sandblasting pretreatment, plasma spraying, vacuum heat treatment and simulated body fluid immersion. The interbody fusion cage prepared by the inventive method has the advantages of novel material, advanced preparation method, reasonable structural design and good osteoconductivity function.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the application field of biomedical composite materials, in particular to an intervertebral fusion device for posterior lumbar surgery and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Chronic low back pain caused by degenerative lumbar instability, lower extremity nerve compression symptoms, intermittent claudication, spinal slippage, lateral recess stenosis, and lumbar disc herniation in the same space are common diseases in orthopedics. Lumbar fusion is the most commonly used treatment. Cloward first proposed intervertebral body decompression and bone graft fusion in the 1950s, using the femoral ring as an autograft to form support and fusion between the upper and lower vertebral bodies. However, autografts have many disadvantages, such as delayed growth, absorption, collapse and easy displacement. Therefore, both at home and abroad have been devoting themselves to designing an intervertebral distraction fixa...
