Problems solved by technology

After the bone plate is implanted in the body, it will cause a series of problems if it exists for a long time, such as the mismatch between the elastic modulus of the bone plate and the bone tissue at the implanted site, which will cause stress shielding and adversely affect the healing of bone tissue, or the length of the bone plate It is prone to loosening after being implanted in the human body for a long time
Due to the existence of these adverse symptoms, a second operation is usually required to remove the implanted bone plate, which further increases the pain and financial burden of the patient

Embodiment 1

[0042] Such as Figure 1-2Shown is a porous tantalum metal bone plate, which is a bone-like trabecular bone plate with osteoinductive properties produced by 3D printing with tantalum metal powder as the base material. The bone plate includes a bone plate body. The bone plate body is a porous structure 2, and also includes reinforcing ribs and fixing holes 3. The external reinforcing ribs 4 are located around the bone plate body, and the internal reinforcing ribs 4 are located inside the external reinforcing ribs 1 in a mesh structure. The porous structure 2 is provided with a fixing hole 3, the fixing hole 3 is a screw hole, the screw hole 3 is located on the centerline of the bone plate, and the screw hole 3 on the bone plate is a surface counterbore, which is convenient for screw fixation and will not Irritation of the surrounding tissue due to the protrusion of the screw. The reinforcing rib is a metal entity, the ratio of the porous part to the solid part is 5:1 to 3:1, t...

Abstract

The invention relates to a porous tantalum bone plate, which is a bone-like trabecular bone plate with osteoinductive properties produced by 3D printing with tantalum metal powder as a base material, and has a connected pore structure suitable for bone ingrowth. The preparation method is as follows: under the protection of argon gas, the porous bone plate is prepared by 3D printing using medical-grade spherical tantalum powder as the raw material; the excess metal powder sticking to the surface of the bone plate is removed by sandblasting; the residual stress is eliminated by heat treatment , and smooth the surface of the bone plate. The invention is used for preparing porous osteosynthetic plate with osteoinductive performance, which can form excellent osseointegration with bone tissue, so as to achieve permanent biological internal fixation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical implant, in particular to an osteoinductive porous tantalum metal bone plate for treating fractures. Background technique [0002] Fractures are clinically common bone trauma diseases, about one-third of which require implants to assist fracture healing. Among various bone fixation implant devices, bone plate is the most widely used, and the materials used for bone plate are usually stainless steel, titanium and titanium alloy. After the bone plate is implanted in the body, it will cause a series of problems if it exists for a long time, such as the mismatch between the elastic modulus of the bone plate and the bone tissue at the implanted site, which will cause stress shielding, which will adversely affect the healing of bone tissue, or the length of the bone plate. It is easy to loosen when implanted in the human body for a long time. Due to the existence of these adverse symptoms, a second operation is usually re...
