Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of orthopedic research models, in particular to a rabbit patellar subluxation surgery auxiliary device. Background Art

[0002] In current research, there are few models of patellar subluxation in rabbits. In 1989, Bjarne first established an approximate CMP model by changing the patellar motion trajectory of rabbits. This model artificially changed the patellar motion trajectory, resulting in uneven force on the patellar cartilage, which led to performance similar to CMP. In 1993, Laberge published a model study on canine patellar chondromalacia and established an animal model close to human CMP. In 1997, Junnosuke established a rabbit patellar subluxation model through surgery. No patellar pressure massage was performed after surgery. Only after the 120th week of modeling did pathological changes in the patellar cartilage appear. Other patella-related models are mostly models of knee cartilage injury and osteoarthritis, or models of fibrocartilage injury at the patellar tendon junction and knee joint infection. There are very few models of patellar subluxation. Establishing a patella-related disease model can be better used to study diseases related to patellar softening caused by patellar subluxation, which is relatively difficult to treat in current medicine.

[0003] This patent uses a patellar subluxation surgical device to assist in patellar subluxation surgery. After the surgery, the animal is forced to exercise and a certain force is artificially applied to the patella to promote cartilage damage. It aims to establish a repeatable and standardized modeling method for a CMP rabbit model caused by patellar subluxation, and to establish an animal model that is close to the pathological manifestations of human patellar subluxation, which is of great significance for further research on the pathogenesis and treatment of CMP.

Small straps 5 are provided on the upper and lower ends of the support rod 21 and on the sides facing the supine platform 2. The two ends of the small strap 5 are fastened to the fixing blocks 40 bonded on both sides of the support rod 21, so as to tie the rabbit's thighs and calves tightly to prevent the rabbit from moving around.

[0033] When the rabbit patellar subluxation surgical auxiliary device of the present invention is used, the experimental rabbit after general anesthesia is placed supinely on the supine table 2, and its legs are leaned against the support rod 21, and then all the large straps 4 and small straps 5 are tightened to stabilize the rabbit, and the slider 34 is slid on the guide rail 22 to be located at the rabbit's knee, and the bolt in the positioning hole 341 is tightened to stabilize the slider 34, and then the swing frame 32 is rotated to make the connecting sleeve 33 located in front of the rabbit's knee, and the bolt in the rotating hole 320 is tightened to stabilize it. After disinfecting the epidermis, the skin and tissue above the patella of the rabbit's knee are cut with a scalpel to expose the patella, and then the telescopic rod 30 is horizontally moved to make the push head 311 close to the rabbit's patella, and the bolt in the fixing hole 331 is tightened to stabilize it, and finally the rotating handle 31 is slowly rotated to make the push head 311 press on the patella of the rabbit's knee to promote the subluxation injury of the cartilage.
