Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the medical field, and particularly to a class of adjustable male genital implants. Background Art

[0002] A normal male genital organ can become erect after being stimulated by corresponding external stimuli and maintain the erect state with reasonable hardness for a certain period of time. For some male patients, due to physical or psychological traumas, their genital organs cannot become erect or cannot meet the corresponding requirements after erection.

[0003] Drug treatment is a commonly used method. Sildenafil is a common drug used to treat male erectile dysfunction. However, drug treatment has many deficiencies. On the one hand, drug treatment has side effects. As the number of uses increases, it may cause too much burden on the body, especially for some elderly people. On the other hand, drug treatment itself cannot treat all male erectile dysfunctions. Some causes of male erectile dysfunctions lie in organic lesions in some positions of the patient himself.

[0004] Surgical treatment is another treatment method. Currently, there are mainly two surgical treatment methods. The first is the three-piece implant type, and the second is the single-piece implant type. The former mainly includes three parts, an inflatable column, a fluid-filled sac, and a control pump. By controlling the control pump, the fluid-filled sac inflates the inflatable column. Since the inflatable column is soft in the non-use state and can be inflated to become hard in the use state, the concealment is relatively good. The latter single-piece implant type is a columnar body with a fixed shape. After being implanted, it changes between the non-use state and the use state by bending. Compared with the former, the concealment is relatively poor, but the operation and implantation are relatively simple.

[0005] In addition, the three-piece type is a relatively complex mechanical device. When a doctor operates, he needs to place each component in the correct position, which poses a relatively high requirement for the doctor. And the patient needs to learn how to operate correctly after the operation and may need some time to be able to use it normally, and during this stage, professional medical staff's guidance is also required. All these factors make it difficult to promote the three-piece type. The advantage of the single-piece implant type is that its structure is relatively simple, the surgical operation is convenient, and the use operation is also convenient, which is easy to promote and use. Currently, the number of male erectile dysfunctions in China is quite large, and some of them require surgical treatment. The single-piece implant type has advantages compared with the three-piece type. However, one of the problems of the single-piece implant type is that it cannot be adaptively adjusted to match different patients.

[0006] If the size of a single-piece implant is too large, it may cause perforation of the glans of the male genital organ during subsequent use, leading to serious consequences. If the size of a single-piece implant is too small, especially in the glans position, it will result in extremely poor overall aesthetics. For the inflatable kit, the size can be appropriately adjusted by adjusting the liquid filling volume. For a single-piece implant, once the implantation is completed, it cannot be adjusted. That is to say, the doctor needs to select an implant of a matching size during the operation. Currently, manufacturers generally provide implants of various specifications. During the operation, the doctor can use tools to measure the internal space of the penis first and then select a suitable specification for implantation.

[0007] However, patients have significant individual differences. For example, for genitals of the same length, some patients have larger glans, some have smaller glans, and some patients have larger cross-sectional dimensions at certain positions and smaller cross-sectional dimensions at certain positions. These individual differences are difficult to meet with implants of different specifications prepared in batches, ultimately resulting in difficulty in achieving an ideal implantation effect.

[0046] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments in the following description are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious variations. The basic principles defined in the following description of the present invention can be applied to other implementation schemes, variant schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes that do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0047] It can be understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more". That is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in other embodiments, the number of the element can be multiple. The term "a" cannot be understood as a limitation on the quantity.

[0048] Refer to the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 3 As shown, an adjustable male genital implant according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention is schematically shown. For the convenience of description, the adjustable male genital implant will be briefly described as the implant below.

[0049] The implant can be conveniently adjusted during the surgical process to adapt to different patients, such as in terms of length dimensions or cross-sectional dimensions. It is worth mentioning that the dimensions of the implant in the transverse direction or the longitudinal direction can not only be adjusted, but also be adjusted independently respectively, so that the entire implant can match the original corpus cavernosum of the genital organ. Further, the implant can be adjusted to non-uniform dimensions. For example, the maximum width at position A is 3 cm, and the maximum width at position B is 4 cm. On the basis of matching the original corpus cavernosum, it can even play an optimizing role.

[0050] Specifically, the implant includes an implant main body 10, wherein the implant main body 10 is a relatively rigid structure, and the entire genital organ of the patient is supported by the structure of the implant main body 10 into a column with a certain hardness.

[0051] The implant main body 10 may include a core 11 and a peelable layer 12, wherein the peelable layer 12 is disposed outside the core 11. The peelable layer 12 may completely cover the core 11 or may partially cover the core 11. The peelable layer 12 may be arranged on the circumferential side or the axial end of the core 11 to adjust the thickness or the length of the core 11 by adjusting the peelable layer 12 respectively.

[0052] The inner core 11 can have a certain degree of flexibility and hardness. In a normal use state, the inner core 11 can maintain an upright state and retain its shape under the action of an external force within a certain range. In a non-use state, the inner core 11 can be bent by a certain angle to shorten its length dimension. The inner core 11 can be transformed between the normal use state and the non-use state.

[0053] The implant body 10 realizes the support for the patient's genital organ through the inner core 11. Therefore, the peelable cortex 12 can be arranged to be soft, such as made of silicone material, relative to the inner core 11, so as to improve the comfort of the entire implant.

[0054] The peelable cortex 12 can be a double-layer or a multi-layer structure, such as three layers, four layers or more. The peelable cortex 12 includes a surface layer 121 and at least one inner layer 122. The surface layer 121 is stacked on the inner layer 122. The surface of the surface layer 121 forms at least part of the surface of the implant body 10. The inner layer 122 is located between the surface layer 121 and the inner core 11. When the surface of the surface layer 121 is damaged, the operator can lift at least part of the surface layer 121 to peel the surface layer 121 off the inner layer 122.

[0055] Specifically, the surface layer 121 is stacked on the inner layer 122 in such a way that an inner surface of the surface layer 121 is stacked on an outer surface of the inner layer 122. That is to say, the surface layer 121 and the inner layer 122 can be in face-to-face contact, or there can be at least one gap 120 between the surface layer 121 and the inner layer 122, such as being filled with gas, as shown in the attached figure. In this embodiment, taking the peelable cortex 12 having three layers, that is, the inner layer 122 having two layers as an example for illustration, the adjacent inner layers 122 can be inflated, so that the implant has a certain space for self-adaptive adjustment during use. In the current surgical process, usually the patient's penis is incised, then the cavernous body is measured, and then the implant is placed. There must be an error between the measured data and the actual size. The peelable cortex 12 formed with at least one fluid-filled layer can reduce the discomfort caused by this error. The fluid-filled layer can be pre-filled with gas, liquid or other fluids. Figure 4 Shown. In this embodiment, taking the peelable cortex 12 having three layers, that is, the inner layer 122 having two layers as an example for illustration, the adjacent inner layers 122 can be inflated, so that the implant has a certain space for self-adaptive adjustment during use. In the current surgical process, usually the patient's penis is incised, then the cavernous body is measured, and then the implant is placed. There must be an error between the measured data and the actual size. The peelable cortex 12 formed with at least one fluid-filled layer can reduce the discomfort caused by this error. The fluid-filled layer can be pre-filled with gas, liquid or other fluids.

[0056] It is worth mentioning that the current-carrying layer can be filled with current during the manufacturing process or after manufacturing. For example, the implant further includes an auxiliary material 13, and the auxiliary material 13 is suitable for being injected into the gap 120 formed between two adjacent layers so that the position bulges, thereby adjusting the shape of the implant in this way. The auxiliary material 13 can be a gas, a liquid, a solid-liquid mixture or other materials. After injection, there can be two situations. One is that the injected form remains unchanged, for example, the gas still remains in the gas state. The other is that a state change occurs, for example, changing from a fluid to a solid. The advantage of the latter may be that holes will be generated in the peelable layer during the injection process, and after forming a solid, it can prevent the injected material from flowing out of the injection position to cause a change in the shape of the implant. Of course, it can be understood that the auxiliary material 13 can be supplemented and injected. For example, after a period of time after the operation, the patient is not satisfied with the operation result and believes that the size of the implant can be larger. Then, after the doctor evaluates the risk, the auxiliary material 13 can be directly injected into the gap 120 of the implant outside the body without surgery.

[0057] The auxiliary material 13 can be a biohydrogel material, which will solidify after a certain period of time to maintain its shape. It is worth mentioning that the holes formed in the peelable layer 12 during the injection process can be blocked. For example, other materials can be filled at the hole position to keep the gap 120 in a closed space.

[0058] It should be noted that the gap 120 can be formed not only between adjacent layers of the peelable layer 12, but also in one of the inner layers 122 or the outer layer 121 of the peelable layer 12. In other words, a sandwich layer can be formed in the inner layer 122 or the outer layer 121.

[0059] Positioning marks are provided on the surface of the implant to indicate the position of the gap 120, so as to facilitate the injection by medical staff. It should be noted that the number of the gaps 120 can be multiple and are arranged in a grid pattern. The adjacent gaps 120 are independent of each other and are not connected. By arranging multiple independent gaps 120, fine adjustment of the shape of the implant can be achieved.

[0060] More specifically, referring to the attached Figure 5As shown, the peelable cortex 12 further includes a separation layer 14, which is disposed between the inner layer 122 and the outer layer 121 or between the inner layer 122 and the inner layer 122. A plurality of the gaps 120 are formed between the adjacent layers by means of the separation layer 14. The separation layer 14 may include a plurality of intersecting connecting strips, for example, the connecting strips intersecting horizontally and vertically to form the gaps 120. The separation strips may be separately manufactured from the inner layer 122 or the outer layer 121, or may be integrally manufactured with the inner layer 122 or the outer layer 121.

[0061] In addition, the implant body 10 has a head end 101 and a tail end 102. When the implant body 10 is installed on the patient's genital organ, the head end 101 of the implant body 10 is adapted to be installed at the glans position of the genital organ, and the tail end 102 of the implant body 10 is adapted to be installed at the position close to the body of the genital organ. The arrangement of the gaps 120 of the implant body 10 may be non-uniform. For example, at the head end 101 position of the implant body 10, the gaps 120 may be arranged to be larger to match the patient's needs for this position. For example, one of the plurality of gaps 120 is arranged to cover the head end 101 of the implant body 10 to form a complete flexible support corresponding to the glans position of the patient's genital organ.

[0062] Of course, those skilled in the art can understand that the above is only an example, and the arrangement of the gaps 120 and the arrangement of the separation layer 14 are not limited to the above examples.

[0063] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the layers of the peelable cortex 12 are designed to be closely stacked. It can be understood that the layers of the peelable cortex 12 may be arranged by pressing, or may be arranged by bonding or other means. In addition, the layers of the peelable cortex 12 may be made of different materials or the same material, and there are obvious but not necessarily visible boundaries between the layers so that the outer layer can be peeled off from the inner layer.

[0064] Refer to the attached Figure 6 As shown, the peelable cortex 12 is designed with at least one peeling line 15, wherein the peeling line 15 is pre-arranged, and along the peeling line 15, at least part of the outer layer 121 can be peeled off. By means of the pre-arranged peeling line 15, each layer of the peelable cortex 12 can be separated into at least two parts or more parts.

[0065] Based on different requirements, the separable parts of the respective layers of the peelable layer 12 can be arranged differently. Correspondingly, the arrangement and shape of the peeling line 15 can be diverse. Taking the surface layer 121 of the peelable layer 12 as an example for illustration. The surface layer 121 of the peelable layer 12 includes a first partial surface layer 1211 and a second partial surface layer 1212, wherein the first partial surface layer 1211 and the second partial surface layer 1212 can be divided by a section of the peeling line 15. Refer to the attached Figure X As shown, the peeling line 15 is arranged along the axial direction of the implant body 10. Along the peeling line 15, the first partial surface layer 1211 and the second partial surface layer 1212 can be separated, so that the surface layer 121 can be separated from the inner layer 122.

[0066] Optionally, the number of the peeling lines 15 is multiple and they are respectively arranged along the axial direction of the implant body 10. It can be understood that the shape of the genital organ may not be a perfect circular shape, but may be an elliptical shape or a shape with some parts swollen. By arranging multiple peeling lines 15, at least part of the surface layer 121 of the peelable layer 12 is peeled off, so that the implant body 10 can be arranged with different circumferential positions and different thicknesses.

[0067] Optionally, the peeling line 15 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the implant body 10, for example, continuously wound in the circumferential direction. Along the peeling line 15, the entire surface layer 121 can be peeled out similar to peeling an apple. Optionally, the number of the peeling lines 15 is multiple to allow the surface layer 121 to be separated into multiple independent parts, which means that the thickness of the implant body 10 can be adjusted differently at each length position. For example, the head end 101 of the implant body 10 may need to be arranged larger. Compared with the tail end 102, then the part of the surface layer 121 arranged at the tail end 102 position can be peeled off to reduce the size at this position.

[0068] Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that particular reference can be made to the attached Figure 8 As shown, the first partial surface layer 1211 has a connecting side surface 12111, and the second partial surface layer 1212 has a joint side surface 12121. The connecting side surface 12111 of the first partial surface layer 1211 and the joint side surface 12121 of the second partial surface layer 1212 are arranged face to face, and they can be directly joined or joined through a medium. The peeling line 15 is formed between the connecting side surface 12111 of the first partial surface layer 1211 and the joint side surface 12121 of the second partial surface layer 1212.

[0069] The connecting side surface 12111 of the first part surface layer 1211 is connected to the surface and the bottom surface of the first part surface layer 1211, and the joining side surface 12121 of the second part surface layer 1212 is connected to the surface and the bottom surface of the second part surface layer 1212. In this embodiment, the connecting side surface 12111 and the joining side surface 12121 are arranged as inclined surfaces, and the connection between the connecting side surface 12111 and the surface of the first part surface layer 1211 is arranged in an arc shape, and the connection between the connecting side surface 12111 and the bottom surface of the first part surface layer 1211 is arranged in an arc shape. Similarly, the connection between the joining side surface 12121 and the surface of the second part surface layer 1212 is arranged in an arc shape, and the connection with the bottom surface of the second part surface layer 1212 is arranged in an arc shape.

[0070] For the surface layer 121 of the peelable skin layer 12, it may be that the first part surface layer 1211 is peeled off, or the second part surface layer 1212 is peeled off, or the first part surface layer 1211 and the second part surface layer 1212 are peeled off together. When the second part surface layer 1212 is peeled off, the connecting side surface 12111 of the first part surface layer 1211 is in direct contact with the patient's body tissue. Considering the comfort level, on the one hand, the peelable skin layer 12 is set to be relatively soft, and on the other hand, the connecting side surface 12111 of the first part surface layer 1211 is set to be inclined to reduce the irritation to the body tissue. The angle between the connecting side surface 12111 and the bottom surface can be in the range of 10 degrees to 70 degrees, such as 45 degrees, or in the range of 110 degrees to 170 degrees, such as 135 degrees.

[0071] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cross-sectional dimensions of the implant body 10 can be arranged to be uniform in the length direction, and the user can adjust the peelable skin layer 12 according to the needs, so as to adjust the dimensions of the implant body 10 at various positions.

[0072] It should be noted that the implant body 10 is generally in a smooth structure, and it is also generally in a smooth structure after part of the material is peeled off to reduce the irritation to the body tissue. When the operator wants to separate the peelable skin layer 12, a sharp scalpel can be used to cut open a part along the peelable line 15, and then peeled off by hand or forceps. In other words, there is no need to provide additional elements protruding from the smooth surface on the surface of the implant body 10 to achieve the peeling of the peelable skin layer 12.

[0073] Furthermore, referring to the attached Figure 7As shown, the peeling lines 15 are multiple and arranged in an interleaved manner so that the surface layer 121 can be separated in blocks. Of course, it can be understood that the user can select the shape of the part to be peeled along the peeling lines 15, which can be block-shaped, strip-shaped, or other shapes. It should be noted that the separation layer 14 can also be arranged in a similar block shape, and the gap 120 does not necessarily need to be completely closed to prevent the filling material from overflowing. The gap 120 can be filled with drugs, and the drugs are slowly released from the gap 120 to achieve a therapeutic effect.

[0074] It can be understood that the implant body 10 is not required to be similar at each position. For example, at the head end 101 position and the tail end 102 position, the implant body 10 can be arranged differently according to requirements at different positions. It can even be, referring to the attached Figure 9 As shown, the implant body 10 is arranged in a two-section type, a first part implant body 10A and a second part implant body 10B. The first part implant body 10A extends forward from the second part implant body 10B. The inner core 11 and at least part of the peelable layer 12 form the first part implant body 10A, and the remaining part of the peelable layer 12 forms the second part implant body 10B. In other words, the flexible inner core 11 can be only arranged at the position of the first part implant body 10A. The second part implant body 10B is close to the patient's body position, so it can be without the flexible inner core 11. In addition, in order to prevent accidental injury caused by the implant twisting in the body, the surface of the second part implant body 10B can be made to have undulations, such as a threaded surface, to reduce the rotation of the implant in the corpus spongiosum.

[0075] Referring to the attached Figure 10 As shown, the implant according to another embodiment of the present invention is schematically shown. In this embodiment, the implant includes the implant body 10 and an attachment layer 16, wherein the attachment layer 16 can be selectively attached to a desired position on the surface of the implant body 10. In other words, when the user needs a certain position of the implant body 10 to be thicker, the attachment layer 16 can be selected to be arranged at this position. The head end portion of the implant body 10 is adapted to be implanted in the glans penis of the patient. The head end portion is provided with the attachment layer 16, and the size of the glans penis of the patient is changed by means of the attachment layer 16.

[0076] The attachment layer 16 can be arranged in a strip shape and is soft to fit along the surface of the implant body 10.

[0077] An exemplary description of the application of the implant is provided. The implant body 10 includes the inner core 11 and the peelable layer 12. When the user finds that the implant is too thin at some positions after peeling off the entire surface layer 121 of the peelable layer 12 as required, the attachment layer 16 can be arranged at a suitable position according to the need to obtain an implant of a suitable size.

[0078] It should be noted that the attachment layer 16 can adhere to the expected position of the implant body 10 by itself, or can be fixedly attached to the expected position of the implant body 10 through an adhesive.

[0079] The attachment layer 16 can be cut according to the need to meet the patient's needs personalized. It can be understood that the attachment layer 16 has an attachment surface, an attachment inside surface, and an attachment side surface, where the attachment surface and the attachment inside surface are arranged oppositely, and the attachment side surface is used to connect the attachment surface and the attachment inside surface. The attachment inside surface is adapted to be oriented or directly attached to the surface of the implant body 10. Preferably, the attachment layer 16 is designed to have a structure that is thicker in the middle and thinner at both sides so that the surface of the implant body 10 with the attachment layer 16 attached is as smooth as possible, without extra edges and corners to avoid scratching the user's tissue.

[0080] Furthermore, the implant includes a protective layer 17, the protective layer 17 is covered on the attachment layer 16, and the protective layer 17 can be peeled off from the attachment layer 16 to expose the attachment layer 16 with the attachable attachment inside surface. Therefore, during use, the implant can be cut into different lengths and shapes according to the need, and then be conveniently attached to the implant body 10.

[0081] Refer to the attached Figure 11 shown, the implant according to another embodiment of the present invention is schematically illustrated.

[0082] The difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that the implant further includes a support cap 18, where the support cap 18 is adapted to be installed at the head end 101 of the implant body 10. The shape and size of the support cap 18 can be selected according to the need to meet the user's needs.

[0083] The support cap 18 can be a soft elastic layer, formed with an installation cavity and an installation opening communicating with the installation cavity. When the support cap 18 is worn on the head end 101 of the implant body 10, at least part of the support cap 18 is supported by the head end 101 of the implant body 10 to expand, so as to be tightly installed on the implant body 10.

[0084] It can be understood that the portion of the support cap 18 forming the mounting opening is set to be relatively thin, and is thinner closer to the edge position, so that the connection between the surface of the support cap 18 and the surface of the implant body 10 appears to extend integrally as much as possible.

[0085] Further, referring to the attached Figure 12 As shown, an attachment layer 16 may be provided at the connection between the implant body 10 and the support cap 18, and the attachment layer 16 makes the connection between the implant body 10 and the support cap 18 tighter.

[0086] Referring to the attached Figure 13 As shown, the implant according to another embodiment of the present invention is schematically shown. The implant further includes a support head 19, and the support head 19 is adapted to be engaged with the end of the implant body 10. Due to the special design of the support head 19, the support head 19 and the implant body 10 are not easily twisted, so as to maintain a stable connection.

[0087] The support head 19 may be formed into two parts, a head end part, and a support part similar to a "worker" shape. The support part in the shape of a "worker" is adapted to be inserted into a matching recess formed at the end of the implant body 10 to achieve the engagement of the two.

[0088] Further, the attachment layer 16 may be arranged at the connection between the support head 19 and the implant body 10 to make the connection between the two more stable.

[0089] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The objectives and advantages of the present invention have been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and described in the embodiments. Without departing from the principle, the embodiments of the present invention may have any deformation or modification.
