Abstract

The invention relates to an artificial ligament and belongs to the technical field of replacement prostheses. The artificial ligament comprises a ligament body and a bone anchor module; the bone anchor module comprises a first anchor, a second anchor and a length adjusting mechanism, wherein the first anchor and the second anchor are arranged at both ends of the ligament body, the length adjustingmechanism is arranged between the first anchor and the ligament body, the first anchor is rotatingly connected with the ligament body through the length adjusting mechanism, and both the first anchorand the second anchor are provided with connecting threads for connecting a bone tunnel and driving flanges for driving rotation. According to the artificial ligament, by means of the bone anchor module, the ligament body can be fixed inside an articular cavity only simply by forming small sections of holes at both ends of a joint bone, so that a patient can achieve low surgical injury and quickrecovery; when being fixed, the artificial ligament can avoid rotating relative to the joint bone or increasing the length; meanwhile, the length of the ligament body can be adjusted through the length adjusting mechanism to reach an optimal state, so that the artificial ligament can functionally replace a natural ligament.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of replacement prostheses, in particular to an artificial ligament with firm bone ends, adjustable length and less surgical damage. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of material science and biomechanics, the properties of artificial ligaments are getting closer to natural ligaments. At present, artificial ligaments mainly produced by LARS are widely used in damaged joints. [0003] The firm combination between the artificial ligament and the host bone is the key to the effect and service life of ligament replacement. The existing artificial ligament fixation methods mainly include: axial screw extrusion type and transverse screw suspension type. The axial screw extrusion type uses metal screws to squeeze the artificial ligament in the bone canal to form fixation. This solution reduces the contact area between the ligament and the bone tunnel, and the internal space of the ligament is...
