Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of technology, and more particularly to a retractable interbody fusion device and its method of use. Background Technology
[0002] With the aging of my country's population, the incidence of degenerative disc diseases and other lesions is gradually increasing. Degeneration can lead to spondylolisthesis or instability of the intervertebral disc and other intervertebral disc diseases, requiring interbody fusion surgery.
[0003] In the existing technical field, Chinese patent document CN203736351U discloses a lumbar fusion cage accessed via the intervertebral foramen, comprising a main body and a radiopaque needle. The main body includes an anterior sidewall, a posterior sidewall, an upper surface, a lower surface, an anterior segment, and an posterior segment. The interior of the main body is hollow, forming an internal cavity. The upper and lower surfaces are both convex arcuate surfaces. The anterior and posterior sidewalls are both arcuate surfaces, and arcuate grooves are provided at the junctions of the anterior and posterior sidewalls and the posterior segment. This patent discloses a lumbar fusion cage that, in addition to the main body, requires a radiopaque needle for positioning, making the design relatively complex. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of the fusion cage are affected by its structure. The patent states that the bone graft window "can provide nutrition and blood supply to the bone in the fusion cage, providing good physiological conditions for bony fusion." However, since the fusion cage already has a hollow internal cavity within its main body, adding a bone graft window would be redundant and would adversely affect the structural stability of the main body. Interbody fusion cages have a fixed shape. In use, due to limitations in shape and size, if the size is too large, it cannot be placed during surgery, while if the size is too small, it is easy for the interbody fusion cage to sink and for the intervertebral discs to not fuse. Therefore, there is still a need for an interbody fusion cage with adjustable size. Summary of the Invention

[0014] According to another aspect of this disclosure, a method for using a retractable interbody fusion cage is provided, applicable to the aforementioned retractable interbody fusion cage, comprising the following steps:
[0015] (1) Detection and model determination: Using an external scanning device, the size of the intervertebral disc that needs to be adjusted is obtained, and the thickness of the required intervertebral fusion device is determined;
[0016] (2) Printing the corresponding interbody fusion device: Use a 3D printer to print the retractable interbody fusion device, including X-shaped rotary interbody fusion device / L-shaped opening interbody fusion device / fan-shaped telescopic interbody fusion device / umbrella-shaped telescopic interbody fusion device, selected in the following order:
[0017] (a) According to the required spacing between intervertebral discs from largest to smallest, the priority of design and installation is as follows: fan-shaped telescopic intervertebral fusion device, umbrella-shaped telescopic intervertebral fusion device, X-shaped rotary intervertebral fusion device, and L-shaped open intervertebral fusion device.
[0018] (b) According to the intervertebral area from largest to smallest, the priority of design and installation is as follows: umbrella-shaped telescopic interbody fusion device, X-shaped rotary interbody fusion device, fan-shaped telescopic interbody fusion device, and L-shaped open interbody fusion device.
[0019] (c) When the aspect ratio of the installation area in step (a) or step (b) is greater than 1.5, a combination of a fan-shaped telescopic interbody fusion device / umbrella-shaped telescopic interbody fusion device in the middle and an L-shaped open interbody fusion device on both sides is adopted.
[0020] (4) Placement of interbody fusion device: With the retractable interbody fusion device in its smallest working state, clamp the clamping slot of the retractable interbody fusion device with clamping forceps and place it on the affected area;
[0021] (4) Shaping: Each interbody fusion cage in step (3) is rotated and opened to the required angle by using a spreading device through a spreading groove;
[0022] (5) Positioning: After step (4), bone cement is injected into the gap between the openings of the rotating parts of each intercondylar fusion device using a bone cement injector.
[0023] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0024] The rotating part rotates around the fixed part to form a bone graft chamber, which expands the effective support area of the intervertebral fusion device and the contact area with the vertebral bone. The gap between the rotating parts is expanded, the volume of the bone graft chamber is increased, and bone cement is implanted in the bone graft chamber to promote intervertebral fusion, reduce the sinking of the intervertebral fusion device, and the intervertebral fusion device is evenly stressed after being fixed by bone cement.
[0025] The anti-slip structure is designed to facilitate the implantation of the interbody fusion device into the patient's body and prevent it from slipping out.
[0026] The clamping groove is designed to facilitate the clamping and fixation of the interbody fusion device, and the operation is simple.
[0027] A support groove is provided to facilitate the rotation of the rotating part around the fixed part, thereby opening the intervertebral fusion device;
[0028] Before the surgery, the interbody fusion device is small in size, making it easy to implant into the patient's body;
[0029] After being implanted into the patient's body, the interbody fusion device rotates and expands, increasing the force-bearing area of the interbody fusion device and providing strong support.
[0030] A self-locking structure is installed to prevent the interbody fusion device from moving, thereby achieving fixation of the interbody fusion device;
[0031] The outer surface is coated with a hydroxyapatite coating, which facilitates bone ingrowth and increases stability.
[0032] The interbody fusion cage has a tantalum wire built into its central axis to serve as a marker for X-ray imaging, facilitating subsequent treatment for the patient.
[0033] Hydroxyapatite has high bioactivity and can promote bone growth and accelerate bone fusion. Zinc oxide can improve antibacterial ability, enhance the anti-inflammatory performance of interbody fusion devices, and improve the osteoinduction and osteointegration performance of the bone-bonding surface, thereby stabilizing the spine and reducing infection, thus reducing the infection situation after interbody fusion device implantation. Calcium phosphate can promote bone fusion and has degradation activity that is coordinated with osteogenic activity.
[0034] The porosity design prevents the device from sinking after surgery, protecting the underlying intervertebral discs and the entire spine.
[0035] During use, the combination of multiple structures provides support for the vast majority of disease conditions, offering more comprehensive and robust protection options. Attached Figure Description
