Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of 3D printing, and in particular to a structure of a 3D titanium mesh prosthesis for a steel plate. Background Art

[0002] Prosthesis, also known as prosthetic in medicine, is a medical device that replaces a limb, organ, or tissue in the human body. Based on their intended use, they can be divided into in vitro prostheses and implantable prostheses. The former include artificial limbs, dentures, and glass eyeballs, while the latter are prostheses that are completely implanted inside the human body and replace organs or tissues, such as artificial tendons, artificial heart valves, and artificial joints. 3D titanium mesh prostheses are implantable prostheses used for the clinical treatment of large bone defects in long bones.

[0003] The prostheses currently on the market are complex to make and require individual mold opening and customization according to the patient's condition, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and increases production costs. At the same time, when large bone defects occur in long bones, it is difficult to source bone grafts. Moreover, after implantation, the joints between the prostheses and the long bones are prone to loosening and falling off, which reduces the firmness of the prosthesis installation. At the same time, there is a certain degree of rejection reaction between the prosthesis and the patient, and it is difficult for the prosthesis to grow together with the long bones, which reduces the support effect of the prosthesis.

A sliding rail is sleeved on the periphery of the slider, and the sliding rail is slidably connected to the slider. The sliding rails are symmetrically installed on both sides of the top of the connecting belt.

[0008] Preferably, two main body reinforcement ribs and a first mounting belt are evenly installed on the titanium mesh prosthesis body, and several first fixing heads are evenly installed on the edge of one side of the titanium mesh prosthesis body. A first center threaded hole is opened in the center of the first fixing head, and first side threaded holes are symmetrically opened on both sides of the first fixing head.

An annular mounting plate 705 is installed at the edge position on the opposite side of the connecting belt 18, and two threaded blocks 703 are symmetrically installed on the outer side wall of the annular mounting plate 705. The center of the threaded block 703 is movable through a screw 702, and the screw 702 is connected to the threaded block 703 by threaded cooperation. One end of the screw 702 is fixedly connected to the fixed block 701, and the other end of the screw 702 is rotatably connected to the rotating block 709. One side of the rotating block 709 is fixedly connected to a semi-arc The fastening net 704 is provided, and one side of the semi-arc fastening net 704 is respectively fitted with the bottom of the two sides of the outer wall of the titanium mesh end head 6. A connecting pin 707 is installed at the bottom center of the semi-arc fastening net 704, and a slider 706 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting pin 707. A sliding rail 708 is sleeved on the periphery of the slider 706, and the sliding rail 708 is slidably connected to the slider 706. The sliding rail 708 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the top of the connecting belt 18, which is conducive to limiting the movement direction of the semi-arc fastening net 704 by the sliding rail 708 and the slider 706. The titanium mesh end head 6 is respectively installed at the center of the opposite side of the connecting belt 18. The titanium mesh end head 6 is rolled into a cylindrical shape, and an end fixing belt 8 is installed in the center of the titanium mesh end head 6.

The 3D printing porosity range is 60-90%, the pore size range is 300-600 um, and the elastic modulus is 10.0-20.0 GPa.

[0027] Working principle: During use, the present invention uses 3D printing technology to print out the titanium mesh prosthesis body 1, the connecting belt 18 and the titanium mesh end head 6, which are integrally formed and customized in size according to the actual situation of the patient. There is no need for mold customization, low production cost, simple production, high production efficiency, and suitable for large-scale promotion. After printing is completed, the titanium mesh prosthesis body 1, the connecting belt 18 and the titanium mesh end head 6 are rolled into a cylindrical shape, and then the screws are respectively passed through the first center threaded hole 12, the first side threaded hole 13, the second side threaded hole 15 and the second center threaded hole 16, and the wound titanium mesh prosthesis body 1 and the titanium mesh end head 6 are fixed with screws, and then the fastening mechanism 7 is welded and fixed to the two ends of the connecting belt 18, and then the titanium mesh end heads 6 at both ends are inserted into the bone marrow cavity of the broken bone and the bone missing part, and then the fixing block 701 is rotated, which immediately drives the screw rod 702 to rotate. Since the screw rod 702 is connected to the threaded block 703 through threaded cooperation, the titanium mesh prosthesis body 1 and the titanium mesh end head 6 are fixed. The screw rod 702 rotates and moves in the center, which in turn drives the rotating block 709 to move in the center, and then drives the semi-arc fastening net 704 to move in the center, and then drives the connecting pin 707 to move in the center, and then drives the slider 706 to move in the center. The setting of the slider 706 and the slide rail 708 limits the movement direction of the semi-arc fastening net 704, and prevents the semi-arc fastening net 704 from rotating, so that the semi-arc fastening net 704 is used to clamp the titanium mesh prosthesis body 1 and the semi-arc fastening net 704 in the center. The joints of the long bones improve the stability of the fixation, and then the titanium mesh prosthesis main body 1 is clamped and fixed using double steel plates and bone screws, thereby completing the implantation and installation of the titanium mesh prosthesis main body 1. During the 3D printing process, the titanium mesh prosthesis main body 1 and the titanium mesh end 6 have a porosity range of 60-90% and a pore size range of 300-600um. The porosity is high, and the callus grows into the gap. The long bones and the titanium mesh prosthesis main body 1 become one, which improves the implantation effect of the titanium mesh prosthesis main body 1.
