[0031] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cervical vertebrae prosthesis, which includes a solid layer 10 and a porous layer 20. The solid layer 10 includes an interconnected front plate 11 and a rear plate 12. The front plate 11 and the rear plate 12 together form a receiving cavity. The front plate 11 is an arc-shaped structure 111, and the axis of the front plate 11 extends in the vertical direction. The porous layer 20 fills the receiving cavity. The cervical vertebrae prosthesis has a first bone graft hole 30, which extends in the vertical direction and passes through the upper and lower end surfaces of the porous layer 20. The cervical vertebrae prosthesis also has a second bone graft hole 40, which passes through the front plate 11 and extends into the porous layer 20.

[0033] According to the technical solution of the present invention, the cervical vertebrae prosthesis includes a solid layer 10 and a porous layer 20. The solid layer 10 includes an anterior plate 11 and a posterior plate 12 connected to each other. The anterior plate 11 and the posterior plate 12 together form a receiving cavity, and the porous layer 20 fills the receiving cavity. The cervical vertebrae prosthesis has a first bone grafting hole 30 and a second bone grafting hole 40. The first bone grafting hole 30 extends in the up-down direction and passes through the upper end face and the lower end face of the porous layer 20. The second bone grafting hole 40 passes through the anterior plate 11 and extends into the porous layer 20. The cervical vertebrae prosthesis adopting the above structure has enhanced structural strength compared to the titanium cage design because the cervical vertebrae prosthesis includes a solid structure composed of the anterior plate 11 and the posterior plate 12. In addition, the cervical vertebrae prosthesis is provided with the first bone grafting hole 30 and the second bone grafting hole 40. On the premise of enhancing the structural strength of the cervical vertebrae prosthesis, the use of the two bone grafting holes to simultaneously graft bones at different positions can increase the amount of bone grafting. Specifically, the solid structure composed of the front plate 11 and the rear plate 12 can ensure that after the cervical vertebrae prosthesis is implanted in the human body, sufficient compression stiffness is formed between the upper and lower vertebrae, thereby preventing the cervical vertebrae prosthesis from collapsing and enhancing axial stability.

[0034] It should be noted that the front side panel 11 is an arc-shaped structure 111, which means that the front side panel 11 is an arc-shaped panel, the two ends of the arc-shaped panel are bent toward the direction close to the rear side panel 12, the middle part of the arc-shaped panel is bent toward the direction away from the rear side panel 12, and the axis of the arc-shaped panel extends in the up and down directions.

[0035] In this embodiment, the rear side plate is a solid structure, which can prevent the bone graft from shifting toward the rear side of the human body after being implanted into the human body.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the second bone graft hole 40 is a strip hole extending in the vertical direction. The above structure is used to increase the volume of the bone graft and accelerate the fusion of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and the human skeleton.

[0037] The strip-shaped holes include strip-shaped holes whose side walls are vertical surfaces, and the strip-shaped holes also include strip-shaped holes whose side walls are curved surfaces.

[0038] like Figure 1As shown, the sidewall of the second bone graft hole 40 is a curved surface 41, and the middle portion of the second bone graft hole 40 is bent forward. With the above structure, the lateral bone graft space can be increased without affecting the strength of the cervical vertebra prosthesis.

[0039] In this embodiment, the curvature radius of the arc surface 41 is between 20 mm and 50 mm.

[0040] Specifically, the distance between the upper end of the second bone graft hole 40 and the upper end of the front side plate 11, and the distance between the lower end of the second bone graft hole 40 and the lower end of the front side plate 11 are both A, wherein 2mm≤A≤4mm. By setting the distance A between the upper end of the second bone graft hole 40 and the upper end of the front side plate 11, and the distance A between the lower end of the second bone graft hole 40 and the lower end of the front side plate 11 within the above-mentioned size range, the front side plate 11 can have a higher structural strength, and the volume of the bone graft can be not too small. If the distance A between the upper end of the second bone grafting hole 40 and the upper end of the front side plate 11 and the distance A between the lower end of the second bone grafting hole 40 and the lower end of the front side plate 11 are less than 2 mm, the structural strength of the front side plate 11 will be affected. If the distance A between the upper end of the second bone grafting hole 40 and the upper end of the front side plate 11 and the distance A between the lower end of the second bone grafting hole 40 and the lower end of the front side plate 11 are greater than 4 mm, the volume of the bone graft will be reduced, thereby affecting the fusion speed of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and the human skeleton.

[0041] Among them, the distance between the upper end of the second bone graft hole 40 and the upper end of the front side plate 11 and the distance A between the lower end of the second bone graft hole 40 and the lower end of the front side plate 11 can be 2mm, 2.2mm, 2.4mm, 2.6mm, 2.8mm, 3mm, 3.2mm, 3.4mm, 3.6mm, 3.8mm, 4mm and any value between 2mm-4mm.

[0042] Furthermore, the minimum distance between the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 is B, where 2mm≤B≤4mm. The above-described dimensioning allows the bone grafts in the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 to penetrate and fuse through the porous layer 20, while also providing the porous layer 20 with a relatively high strength. If the minimum distance B between the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 is less than 2mm, the strength of the porous layer 20 will be affected. If the minimum distance B between the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 is greater than 4mm, the porous layer 20 will affect the speed at which the bone grafts in the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 form a through-fusion, thereby affecting the fusion speed between the cervical vertebrae prosthesis and the human skeleton.

[0043] The minimum distance B between the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 may be 2 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.6 mm, 2.8 mm, 3 mm, 3.2 mm, 3.4 mm, 3.6 mm, 3.8 mm, 4 mm, or any value between 2 mm and 4 mm.

[0044] Specifically, the first bone grafting hole 30 is a circular hole, the aperture of the first bone grafting hole 30 is D, and the area of ​​the end surface of the cervical vertebra prosthesis is S1, wherein the ratio of D to S1 is between 0.2 and 0.4. The above ratio range is adopted to ensure that the first bone grafting hole 30 has sufficient bone grafting space and will not reduce the porous layer 20, thereby affecting the fusion speed of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and the human skeleton.

[0045] Specifically, the area of ​​the second bone grafting hole 40 is S2, and the area of ​​the front side plate 11 is S3, wherein the ratio of S2 to S3 is between 0.35 and 0.45. Using the above ratio range, the second bone grafting hole 40 will not affect the structural strength of the front side plate 11, and the second bone grafting hole 40 has sufficient bone grafting space.

[0046] In this embodiment, the diameter of the first bone graft hole 30 is between 2.5 mm and 4.5 mm, and the diameter of the second bone graft hole 40 is between 2 mm and 2.5 mm.

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the front plate 11 includes a plate body 112, four connecting sections 113, and two transition sections 114, which are connected in sequence from front to back. The two transition sections 114 are located on the left and right sides of the plate body 112, respectively. The upper and lower ends of the transition sections 114 are connected to the upper and lower ends of the plate body 112 through the two connecting sections 113, respectively. The two transition sections 114 are connected to the left and right sides of the rear plate 12, respectively. The plate body 112, the connecting sections 113, and the transition sections 114 together form a window 13, and the porous layer 20 extends into the window 13. By filling the window 13 with the porous layer 20, the bone grafts in the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 can be integrated with the human skeleton through the porous layer 20 in the window 13, thereby accelerating the integration of the cervical vertebrae prosthesis with the human skeleton and achieving long-term fixation of the cervical vertebrae prosthesis. In addition, the porous layer 20 in the window 13 can form blood supply for bone growth, promoting bone growth.

[0048] In this embodiment, the bone grafts in the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 can form a penetrating fusion of the bone graft through the porous layer 20 between the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40, and can also form bony fusion with the human skeleton through the porous layer 20 in the window 13, thereby accelerating the fusion speed of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and the human skeleton, and realizing long-term fixation of the cervical vertebra prosthesis.

[0049] Specifically, the ratio of the area of ​​the window 13 to the area of ​​the front plate 11 is between 0.6 and 0.75. Adopting the above ratio range can substantially accelerate the fusion speed of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and the human skeleton.

[0050] like Figure 3As shown, a plurality of through holes 14 are provided at the connection between the rear side plate 12 and the transition section 114. The plurality of through holes 14 are spaced apart in the vertical direction. The through holes 14 can provide blood supply to the bone grafts in the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40, thereby accelerating the bone fusion between the bone grafts and between the bone grafts and the human skeleton.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, the porous layer 20 comprises a trabecular structure, and both the upper and lower surfaces of the porous layer 20 are of a high-middle, low-side structure. The upper surface of the porous layer 20 protrudes from the upper surface of the solid layer 10, and the lower surface of the porous layer 20 protrudes from the lower surface of the solid layer 10. This structure facilitates a good fit between the cervical prosthesis and the upper and lower vertebral bodies after implantation.

[0052] In this embodiment, the upper end surface of the porous layer 20 protrudes from the upper end surface of the solid layer 10 , and the lower end surface of the porous layer 20 protrudes from the lower end surface of the solid layer 10 . The protruding portion is designed with various angles and diameters for selection.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the upper and lower end surfaces of the porous layer 20 have multiple outwardly protruding protrusions 21. The cervical prosthesis contacts the upper and lower vertebral bodies through the protrusions 21, which facilitates positioning of the cervical prosthesis and achieves fixation of the cervical prosthesis.

[0054] Specifically, the pore diameter of the trabecular structure is between 600 μm and 800 μm. Setting the pore diameter of the trabecular structure within this size range not only enables good blood flow within the trabecular structure, but also promotes bone tissue growth. If the pore diameter of the trabecular structure is less than 600 μm, it is not conducive to good blood flow within the trabecular structure. If the pore diameter of the trabecular structure is greater than 800 μm, it is not conducive to bone tissue growth.

[0055] The pore diameter of the trabecular structure may be 600 μm, 620 μm, 640 μm, 660 μm, 680 μm, 700 μm, 720 μm, 740 μm, 760 μm, 780 μm, 800 μm, or any value between 600 μm and 800 μm.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, the cervical vertebra prosthesis has an observation hole 50, which passes through the front plate 11, the porous layer 20 and the back plate 12 from front to back. The observation hole 50 is convenient for observing the growth of bone tissue, and drugs or growth factors can also be implanted in the observation hole 50, which has the advantage of multiple uses.

[0057] In this embodiment, second bone grafting holes 40 are provided on both the left and right sides of the cervical vertebra prosthesis, and the observation hole 50 is located between the two second bone grafting holes 40. By providing second bone grafting holes 40 on both the left and right sides of the cervical vertebra prosthesis, the amount of bone grafting can be further increased, thereby accelerating the bone fusion speed of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and realizing long-term fixation of the cervical vertebra prosthesis.

[0058] Specifically, both the upper and lower ends of the cervical vertebra prosthesis are provided with observation holes 50. The above arrangement facilitates observation of the growth of bone tissue from multiple angles and further understanding of the patient's recovery.

[0059] The outer surface of the posterior plate 12 is polished to prevent soft tissue from adhering to the posterior plate 12 , thereby reducing the risk of secondary spinal cord compression.

[0060] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rear side plate 12 is an arc-shaped plate, and the radius of the arc-shaped plate is between 30 mm and 50 mm.

[0061] In this embodiment, the cervical vertebra prosthesis is made by 3D printing, which has the advantage of being easy to process. The cervical vertebra prosthesis is made of medical metals, including but not limited to titanium and titanium alloys, cobalt alloys, stainless steel, tantalum metal, and magnesium alloys.

[0062] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the front and back directions correspond to the front and back sides of the human body, and the top and bottom directions correspond to the upper vertebral body 60 and the lower vertebral body 61. After the cervical vertebra prosthesis is installed, the front side of the cervical vertebra prosthesis is shielded by an auxiliary steel plate 62.

[0063] The cervical vertebra prosthesis provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0064] 1) Because the cervical vertebrae prosthesis includes a solid structure consisting of the front plate 11 and the back plate 12, the structural strength is enhanced compared to a titanium cage design. In addition, the cervical vertebrae prosthesis is provided with a first bone grafting hole 30 and a second bone grafting hole 40. While enhancing the structural strength of the cervical vertebrae prosthesis, simultaneous bone grafting at different locations using the two bone grafting holes can increase the amount of bone grafted.

[0065] 2) The solid structure composed of the front plate 11 and the rear plate 12 can ensure that after the cervical vertebrae prosthesis is implanted in the human body, sufficient compression stiffness is formed between the upper and lower vertebrae, thereby preventing the cervical vertebrae prosthesis from collapsing and enhancing axial stability;

[0066] 3) The bone grafts in the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40 can not only form a through-fusion of the bone grafts through the porous layer 20 between the first bone graft hole 30 and the second bone graft hole 40, but can also form bony fusion with the human skeleton through the porous layer 20 in the window 13, thereby accelerating the fusion speed of the cervical vertebrae prosthesis and the human skeleton, and achieving long-term fixation of the cervical vertebrae prosthesis;

[0067] 4) The upper and lower end surfaces of the porous layer 20 are both high in the middle and low on both sides. The upper end surface of the porous layer 20 protrudes from the upper end surface of the solid layer 10, and the lower end surface of the porous layer 20 protrudes from the lower end surface of the solid layer 10. This is conducive to forming a good fit between the cervical prosthesis and the upper and lower vertebral bodies after implantation;

[0068] 5) The cervical vertebra prosthesis contacts the upper and lower vertebral bodies through the protrusions 21, which facilitates positioning of the cervical vertebra prosthesis and achieves fixation of the cervical vertebra prosthesis.
