Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, and in particular to an intramedullary nail aiming system. Background Art

[0002] Intramedullary nail treatment is a commonly used internal fixation method for fractures, especially for long bones of the lower limbs such as the femur and tibia. During the installation of the intramedullary nail, the steps of proximal opening, long bone shaft medullary expansion, intramedullary nail implantation, proximal locking nail installation and distal locking nail installation are usually required. The most difficult part of the operation is the installation of the distal locking nail. Due to the difference in the arc shape of the patient's long bones, the distal end of the intramedullary nail will have different degrees of deviation. The most commonly used technique in clinical practice is to use a lateral pressure rod to eliminate the difference in the front and back directions of the intramedullary nail in the medullary cavity to achieve the purpose of aiming. In the existing scheme, the distal aiming arm is all of an integrated design. Once the lateral pressure rod fails to fine-tune the distal end of the intramedullary nail to the predetermined position during the operation, the locking nail installation hole at the distal end of the distal aiming arm and the locking nail hole of the intramedullary nail in the patient's body will not be in a straight line. According to the expected surgical steps, the installation of the distal locking nail will encounter difficulties. At this time, the integrated distal aiming arm used in the existing technology lacks the ability to fine-tune itself, which brings challenges to the surgeon during the operation. In addition, the adjustment mechanism of the lateral support requires an additional lateral hole to be added to the patient's affected limb bone, which is only used to adjust the intramedullary nail in the anterior-posterior position to achieve the aiming function. This lateral hole will cause additional trauma to the patient, and multiple holes in a certain area of ​​the distal femur will increase the risk of secondary fractures in this area. In the existing surgical procedure, after the intramedullary nail aiming arm is installed, the third-level drill sleeve is used as a guide and bluntly inserted into the surgical incision until the bone surface; then the third-level inner core in the center is pulled out, and the drill bit is inserted through the center channel to drill a locking screw. The hole is in a straight line with the intramedullary nail, and finally the locking screw is installed. However, the tool combination during the drilling process is relatively complicated, the operation is inconvenient, and a large amount of bone chips are generated. The bone chips remain in the patient's body, increasing the risk of embolism. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intramedullary nail aiming system, which can reduce the number of X-ray fluoroscopy during surgery and eliminate the need to add additional positioning holes on the patient's affected limb bones, thereby reducing trauma to the patient; in addition, the surgery is more convenient, bone debris residue can be reduced, and surgical risks can be reduced.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides an intramedullary nail aiming system, comprising:

[0005] handle;

[0006] A gear lever, the gear lever having a distal end and a proximal end; the direction from the distal end to the proximal end of the gear lever is the length direction of the gear lever;

[0008] A first aiming member, the first aiming member comprising: a first aiming body connected to the distal end of the gear lever, and an adjusting block movably connected to the first aiming body; the first aiming body is provided with a first guide groove penetrating along the thickness direction thereof, and the first guide groove extends along the height direction of the first aiming body; the adjusting block is provided with a guide hole, the aperture of the guide hole is smaller than the groove length of the first guide groove, and the guide hole can be configured to overlap and penetrate any area in the length direction of the first guide groove; the guide hole and the area of ​​the first guide groove covered by the guide hole form a first hole position; the height direction of the first aiming body, the length direction of the gear lever and the thickness direction of the first aiming body are perpendicular to each other; and

[0009] a second aiming member, wherein the second aiming member is slidably connected to the first aiming body along a height direction of the first aiming body, and the first aiming body is located between the shift lever and the second aiming member; a second guide groove is formed on the second aiming member and penetrates along a thickness direction thereof; and the second guide groove has a second hole position;

[0010] The second aiming member has an initial position and an aiming position; when the second aiming member is at the aiming position, the center of the second hole position and the center of any of the first hole positions are located on the same horizontal line, and the first aiming body and the second aiming member are locked and fixed;

[0011] Multiple intramedullary nail keyhole positioning modules, including:

[0012] a drill sleeve having a passage extending therethrough and along its length;

[0013] An annular drill, the annular drill is rotatably connected to the drill sleeve and inserted into the passage, and both ends of the annular drill are located outside the drill sleeve; the annular drill is provided with a through hole, and the through hole extends along the length direction of the annular drill and penetrates the annular drill; the drill sleeve and the annular drill cooperate to form an integral part, and the drill sleeve carries the annular drill for inserting into or removing from the first hole position and / or the second hole position;

[0014] wherein the outer diameters of at least two annular drills in the plurality of intramedullary nail locking hole positioning modules are different;

[0015] A center guide is used to insert into or pull out of the through hole of the annular drill; and after the center guide is inserted into and penetrates the through hole, the annular drill and the center guide can be rotatably arranged.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention is characterized in that the aiming module is provided, and the second aiming member is movably connected to the first aiming member, so that the height of the second aiming member can be adjusted. That is to say, after the intramedullary nail aiming arm is installed, the second aiming member is in the initial position, and a pre-judgment hole is first punched on the bone of the affected limb through the second hole position to form a pre-judgment hole, and a plurality of first hole positions are formed through the adjustment block according to the expected upward or downward direction of the pre-judgment hole and the locking screw hole at the distal end of the intramedullary nail, and a suitable first hole position is selected to drill a hole on the bone of the affected limb to form a pre-drilled hole, and when the pre-drilled hole is connected to the screw hole on the intramedullary nail, the pre-drilled hole is expanded to form a locking hole, and then the second aiming member is moved to the aiming position, so that the center of the second hole position is on the same horizontal line as the center of the first hole position forming the locking screw hole, so that the distal hole position in the locking of the intramedullary nail can be fine-tuned, the number of intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy can be reduced, and no additional positioning holes need to be added on the bone of the patient's affected limb, which reduces trauma to the patient and reduces the pressure of the doctor's self-adjustment. The annular drill is inserted into the drill sleeve, wherein the annular drill with a small outer diameter cooperates with the drill sleeve to form a pre-drilled hole, and the annular drill with a large outer diameter cooperates with the drill sleeve to expand the hole. The center guide is used to check whether the pre-drilled hole on the bone of the affected limb is on the same axis as the locking hole on the intramedullary nail. The doctor can distinguish it by the touch of the head of the center guide, or by the insertion depth to determine whether the center guide passes through the locking hole on the intramedullary nail. As can be seen from the above, compared with the prior art, the combination of multiple intramedullary nail locking hole positioning modules and center guide drilling requires fewer tool pieces, fewer assembly and use times, and more convenient surgery. In addition, the through hole setting in the annular drill reduces the contact area between the drill bit edge of the annular drill and the bone surface during the drilling process, generates less heat, and reduces burns to soft tissue during the drilling process. In addition, the through hole of the ring drill can accommodate blocky bone fragments and bring them out of the body. The drill bit is now a solid drill. During the hole opening process, the removed bone is broken down into bone fragments and left in the patient's body. The ring drill has fewer bone fragments, which can reduce the risk of embolism during surgery and make the surgery safer.

[0090] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1As shown, the intramedullary nail aiming system includes a handle 700, a gear lever 1, an aiming module 2, a plurality of intramedullary nail lock hole positioning modules 600 and a center guide 8. The gear lever 1 and the aiming module 2 form an intramedullary nail aiming arm 100. The gear lever 1 is made of stainless steel or carbon fiber material. The gear lever 1 has a plurality of holes 11 arranged along its length direction, which correspond to intramedullary nails of different lengths and specifications. The gear lever 1 has a distal end and a proximal end, the proximal end is connected to the handle 700, and the distal end is connected to the aiming module 2. The direction from the distal end to the proximal end of the gear lever 1 is the length direction of the gear lever 1.

[0091] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the aiming module 2 includes: a first aiming member 21 and a second aiming member 22. The first aiming member 21 includes: a first aiming body 211 connected to the distal end of the gear lever 1, and an adjusting block 212 movably connected to the first aiming body 211. The first aiming body 211 is provided with a first guide groove 2110 penetrating along the thickness direction thereof, and the first guide groove 2110 extends along the height direction of the first aiming body 211. The adjusting block 212 is provided with a guide hole 2120, the aperture of the guide hole 2120 is smaller than the groove length of the first guide groove 2110, and the guide hole 2120 can be configured to overlap and penetrate any area in the length direction of the first guide groove 2110, and the guide hole 2120 and the area of ​​the first guide groove 2110 covered by the guide hole 2120 form a first hole position 210. The height direction of the first aiming body 211, the length direction of the gear lever 1 and the thickness direction of the first aiming body 211 are perpendicular to each other. The second aiming member 22 is slidably connected to the first aiming body 211 along the height direction of the first aiming body 211, and the first aiming body 211 is located between the gear lever 1 and the second aiming member 22. The second aiming member 22 is provided with a second guide groove 220 penetrating along the thickness direction thereof, and the second guide groove 220 has a second hole position 221. The second aiming member 22 has an initial position and an aiming position. When the second aiming member 22 is located at the aiming position, the center of the second hole position 221 is located on the same horizontal line as the center of any first hole position 210, and the first aiming member 21 and the second aiming member 22 are locked and fixed.

[0092] Since the aiming module 2 is provided and the second aiming member 22 is movably connected to the first aiming body 211 , the height of the second aiming member 22 can be adjusted. That is to say, after the intramedullary nail aiming arm 100 is installed, the second aiming member 22 is in the initial position, and a pre-judged hole is first drilled on the bone of the affected limb through the second hole position 221. According to the expected upward or downward direction of the pre-judged hole and the locking hole at the distal end of the intramedullary nail 500, a plurality of first hole positions are formed through the adjusting block, and a suitable first hole position 210 is selected to drill a hole in the bone of the affected limb to form a pre-drilled hole. When the pre-drilled hole is connected to the screw hole on the intramedullary nail 500, the pre-drilled hole is expanded to form a locking hole, and then the second aiming member 22 is moved to the aiming position so that the center of the second hole position 221 is on the same horizontal line as the center of the first hole position 210 forming the locking hole, thereby realizing fine-tuning of the distal hole position in the locking of the intramedullary nail 500, reducing the number of X-ray fluoroscopy during surgery, and without adding additional positioning holes on the bone of the patient's affected limb, reducing trauma to the patient, and reducing the pressure on the doctor to make independent fine-tuning.

[0093] like Figure 6 As shown, the intramedullary nail lock hole positioning module 600 includes: a drill sleeve 6 and an annular drill 7, and the drill sleeve 6 has a channel 61 that runs through it and extends along its length direction. The annular drill 7 is rotatably connected to the drill sleeve 6 and inserted into the channel 61, and the two ends of the annular drill 7 are located outside the drill sleeve 6. The annular drill 7 is provided with a through hole 71, and the through hole 71 extends along the length direction of the annular drill 7 and runs through the annular drill 7. By providing the drill sleeve 6 and the annular drill 7, the annular drill 7 and the drill sleeve 6 are used together, and when the annular drill 7 drills a hole, since the annular drill 7 has the through hole 71, during the drilling process, the drill bit edge of the annular drill 7 has a smaller contact area with the bone surface, generates less heat, and reduces the burns to the soft tissue during the drilling process. In addition, the through hole 71 of the annular drill 7 can accommodate block-shaped bone fragments and take them out of the body, while the drill bit is a solid drill, and during the drilling process, the removed bone mass is destroyed into bone fragments and left in the patient's body. The fewer bone fragments provided by the annular drill 7 can reduce the risk of embolism during surgery, and the surgery is safer.

[0094] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Fig.10As shown, the outer diameters of at least two annular drills 7 in the plurality of intramedullary nail locking hole positioning modules 600 are different, that is, the number of intramedullary nail locking hole positioning devices can be greater than 3, wherein the outer diameters of two annular drills 7 are the same, and two are different, and the number is either greater than 3 or 2. The outer diameter size of the annular drill 7 is planned according to the demand, and the center guide 8 is used to insert through or pull out of the through hole 71 of the annular drill 7, and after the center guide 8 is inserted through the through hole 71, the annular drill 7 and the center guide 8 can be rotatably arranged. Each annular drill 7 is matched and inserted into the drill sleeve 6, wherein the annular drill 7 with a small outer diameter cooperates with the drill sleeve 6 to form a pre-drilled hole 410, and the annular drill 7 with a large outer diameter cooperates with the drill sleeve 6 to expand the hole. The center guide 8 is used to check whether the pre-drilled hole 410 on the affected limb bone 400 is on the same axis as the locking hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500. The doctor can distinguish it by the touch of the head of the center guide 8, or by the insertion depth. There may be a scale ring on the center guide 8, and the insertion depth of the center guide 8 can be compared with the length of the ring drill 7 to determine whether the center guide 8 has passed through the locking hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500.

[0095] Specifically, the central guide 8 is made of metal, preferably nickel-titanium alloy, which has good wear resistance and a diameter of 1.9-2.5 mm, which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the annular drill 7 used for hole expansion. When judging whether the pre-drilled hole 410 on the affected limb bone 400 is on the same axis as the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500, the doctor can distinguish it by the touch of the head of the central guide 8. There is a difference in the feeling of metal touching metal and metal touching cortical bone.

[0096] like Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown, the central axis of the channel 61 of at least one drill sleeve 6 in the plurality of intramedullary nail locking hole positioning modules 600 deviates from the central axis of the drill sleeve 6, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the central axis of the channel 61 of at least one drill sleeve 6 in the plurality of intramedullary nail locking hole positioning modules 600 is coaxial with the central axis of the drill sleeve 6. When pre-drilling the locking hole, the hole position can be fine-tuned by the annular drill, which has the opportunity to reduce the number of times the aiming frame is used for adjustment, optimizes the details, and improves the surgical efficiency. In the prior art, the fine-tuning operation of the aiming frame is relatively cumbersome, and the eccentric annular drill only needs to be rotated to achieve position fine-tuning.

[0097] Furthermore, the annular drill 7 is a stainless steel annular drill, and the drill sleeve 6 is a plastic drill sleeve.

[0098] Furthermore, if Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, bearings 60 are embedded at both ends of the drill sleeve 6, and the bearings 60 are sleeved outside the annular drill 7. The annular drill 7 is rotatably connected to the drill sleeve 6 through the bearings 60. One end of the annular drill 7 is outside the drill sleeve 6 for connecting the driving member, and the other end of the annular drill 7 is outside the drill sleeve 6 for drilling or expanding the hole. In orthopedic trauma surgery, most of them are open surgeries, and the surgical power does not include a water circulation system and has no cooling function. The overall structure of the bearing is set between the annular drill and the drill sleeve, which can effectively solve the disadvantage of frictional heating between the annular drill and the drill sleeve.

[0099] In addition, the drill sleeve 6 and the annular drill 7 cooperate to form an integral part. When in use, the matched drill sleeve 6 and the annular drill 7 can be inserted into the surgical incision together according to needs until the bone surface. The intramedullary nail lock hole positioning module is used in conjunction with the intramedullary nail aiming arm, and there is no need to install a multi-stage guide sleeve, which saves the doctor operation steps and thus saves operation time. And in use, according to the hole position that needs to be drilled, different models of intramedullary nail lock hole positioning modules can be directly replaced. By using the intramedullary nail lock hole positioning module to fine-tune the hole position, there is an opportunity to reduce the number of adjustments to the intramedullary nail aiming arm, optimize from the details, and improve the surgical efficiency. The fine-tuning operation of the intramedullary nail aiming arm in existing surgery is relatively cumbersome.

[0100] In addition, the outer diameter of the annular drill 7 ranges from 2 mm to 4.5 mm, and the outer diameter of the drill sleeve 6 ranges from 9 mm to 11 mm. The outer diameter of the annular drill 7 is designed to have multiple specifications, such as a diameter of 2 mm to 2.5 mm, which is used as a specification for the pre-drilled hole 410; a diameter of 3 mm to 3.5 mm, which is used as a bottom hole for a 4.5 mm locking screw; and a diameter of 4 mm to 4.5 mm, which is used as a bottom hole for a 5.0 mm locking screw.

[0101] In addition, if Fig.10 , Fig.11As shown, the distal end of the center guide 8 is a tip portion 81, the outermost tip of the tip portion 81 coincides with the side edge of the center guide 8, and the tip portion 81 is not arranged at the center position. The center guide 8 is used as a hole position "probe". Specifically, the pre-drilled hole 410 made on the affected limb bone 400, the pre-drilled hole 410 and the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500 inserted into the medullary cavity are usually not in the ideal position, and there is a certain deviation. The center guide 8 cannot be smoothly inserted into the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500. At this time, you can try to rotate the center guide 8, and use its eccentric tip 81 to design and explore the position of the overlapping area of ​​the two holes. After the tip 81 is inserted, the center guide 8 is inserted to the expected depth. During the insertion process, the friction between the center guide 8 and the locking nail hole wall on the intramedullary nail can be felt; then the currently used annular drill 7 is replaced with an eccentric annular drill 7 and the hole is expanded. According to the rotation direction of the center guide 8, the placement direction of the eccentric annular drill 7 is determined, so that the drilling deviation can be corrected by the center guide 8. Preferably, when the position deviation between the pre-drilled hole 410 and the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500 inserted into the medullary cavity is within 2 mm, the eccentric tip 81 is inserted to play a certain prying role, and with the help of the eccentric ring drill 7, the drilling hole is corrected by 1-1.5 mm.

[0102] Furthermore, if Fig.11 As shown, the angle a of the tip portion 81 ranges from 30° to 45°. Optionally, the angle a of the tip portion 81 is 35°, 40° or 42°. The end of the center guide 8 away from the tip portion 81 has a tip indicator, so that at least the tip portion 81 can be oriented, such as the tail section of the center guide 8 (the end away from the tip portion 81) is "D" shaped.

[0103] In addition, if Fig.12 As shown, the outer periphery of the center guide 8 is provided with a groove, and an insert 82 is arranged in the groove, and the insert 82 protrudes out of the groove. The outer diameter of the assembly formed by the insert 82 after the center guide 8 is arranged is smaller than the inner diameter of the annular drill 7.

[0104] Furthermore, if Fig.10 , Fig.12As shown, the insert 82 is elastic and is a C-shaped ring. Specifically, grooves are designed in the head 1 / 3 area, the middle and the tail 1 / 3 area of ​​the center guide 8, and the insert 82 is installed in the groove. The insert 82 has a certain elasticity, and the outer diameter in the free state is slightly larger than the center guide 8. When squeezed and contracted, it can be basically accommodated in the groove. When the insert 82 is tightened, the outer diameter is slightly smaller than the center hole diameter of the annular drill 7. Its function is to help the center guide 8 and the annular drill 7 to achieve better relative rotation. In particular, when the straightness of the center guide 8 is lost, the annular drill 7 can still rotate around the center guide 8. With the help of the insert 82, the contact area between the center guide 8 and the wall of the through hole 71 of the annular drill 7 is reduced, and the friction resistance during the rotation process is reduced. It can be understood that the grooves can also be set in other areas of the center guide 8, and the number can be one or more.

[0105] When using the intramedullary nail locking hole positioning device composed of the intramedullary nail locking hole positioning module 600 and the center guide 8, take the first hole position 210 as an example, step 1: pre-drilling 410, preferentially use the intramedullary nail locking hole positioning module 600 (the head diameter of the ring drill 7 is 2.5mm) and the center guide 8 to drill through the first hole position, and select a smaller diameter for the ring drill 7 to avoid the pre-drilling 410 from deviating from the ideal position, so as to reserve enough bone for subsequent position correction. Step 2, exploration; Scenario 1, after pulling out the ring drill 7 used in step 1, use the center guide 8 to explore the hole, which is similar to the role of an orthopedic "probe"; such as Fig.17 , Fig.18 , Fig.19 As shown, the small circle indicates the pre-drilled hole 410 made in the affected limb bone 400 in step 1, and the outer large circle indicates the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500 inserted into the medullary cavity. During the operation, the centers of the two holes are usually not in the ideal position, and there is a certain deviation, such as Fig.17 In the eccentricity case 1, the deviation between the center of the two holes is less than 1-1.25mm, and the center guide 8 can be inserted smoothly. In this case, a standard annular drill 7 with a larger diameter (3-3.5mm or 4-4.5mm) is used to expand the hole, and the locking screw can be installed smoothly. Fig.18 In another scenario 2, step 3 is performed: after pulling out the ring drill 7 used in step 1, the center guide 8 is used to perform exploration, which is similar to the role of an orthopedic "probe"; Fig.18The small circle shown is a pre-drilled hole 410 made in the affected limb bone 400 in step 1, and the outer large circle is a locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500 inserted into the medullary cavity. During the operation, the centers of the two holes are usually not in the ideal position and there is a certain deviation. When the eccentric situation 2 shown in the figure occurs, the deviation between the centers of the two holes is greater than 1-1.25mm, and the overlapping area of ​​the two holes is smaller than the diameter of the pre-drilled hole 410 and the outer diameter of the center guide 8. The center guide 8 cannot be used to smoothly penetrate the intramedullary nail. The locking nail hole 510 (large circle) on the intramedullary nail 500 can be rotated. The eccentric tip 81 can be used to detect the position of the overlapping area of ​​the two holes. After the tip 81 is inserted, the center guide 8 is inserted to the expected depth. During the insertion process, the friction between the center guide 8 and the wall of the (large circle) locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500 can be felt. However, if the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail 500 still cannot be penetrated after selecting the tip 81, replace the aiming module and explore the hole again. Step 4: Ream the hole; When encountering situation 2 in step 3, an eccentric annular drill 7 needs to be selected for hole expansion. During operation, the placement direction of the eccentric annular drill 7 needs to be determined according to the rotation direction of the center guide 8. The tail section of the center guide 8 is "D"-shaped, which can help determine the rotation position of the center guide 8; when expanding the hole, the center guide 8 can be selectively pulled out, that is, the center guide 8 is pulled out first, and then the eccentric annular drill 7 is used for hole expansion, or the eccentric annular drill 7 is passed through the center guide 8 to complete the hole expansion. The dimensions in the above steps can be replaced according to actual needs, but are not limited to this. In addition, the extraction or insertion of the annular drill 7 is used together with the drill sleeve 6 matching each annular drill 7.

[0106] Furthermore, if Figure 2 The second guide groove 220 includes a plurality of circular holes, and one circular hole forms a second hole position 221. The second guide groove 220 is in the shape of a horizontal "∞". The second aiming piece is provided with a horizontal "∞" hole to support the requirement of using two holes at the same time, that is, when using the second guide groove 220, the second hole position on one side is used as a reference hole, and the second hole position on the other side can be directly used as a locking screw installation hole when fine-tuning is not required. Finally, the locking screw installation and positioning reference holes are separated to avoid secondary expansion of the reference hole and increase the risk of fracture in the punching area. Specifically, the clinical requirement is that the distal locking screw installation hole of the intramedullary nail is a long slot-type keyway hole. During the initial surgery, the locking screw is preferentially installed at a position on the far side of the keyway to prevent delayed bone healing in patients after surgery. The locking screw needs to have a certain sliding gap in the keyway to achieve secondary pressurization and promote bone healing. During surgery, the pre-drilled reference hole is preferentially punched on the other side of the keyway hole, that is, when using Fig.14 The first hole on the right side of the middle horizontal "∞" hole structure is used to fine-tune the aiming module according to the position of the reference hole. After the fine-tuning is completed, the second hole near the outer side (far end) is used to drill the locking nail installation hole through the horizontal "∞" hole structure, that is, Fig.14The leftmost second hole position is independent of each other. When the patient is standing, the second holes are not on the same horizontal plane, which minimizes the loss of bone strength. However, the existing second hole position generally has only one single hole, and the pre-drilled reference hole position and the final locking screw installation hole are not effectively separated.

[0107] Furthermore, if Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment block 212 at least partially covers the first guide groove 2110 , is slidably connected to the first aiming body 211 along the height direction of the first aiming body 211 , and at least partially covers the first guide groove 2110 .

[0108] In addition, if Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment block 212 includes: a block body 2122 having a guide hole 2120, and a guide rod 2123 movably connected to the block body 2122. The guide rod 2123 is threadedly connected to the first aiming body 211. When the guide rod 2123 rotates in cooperation with the first aiming body 211, the guide rod 2123 moves toward the first guide groove 2110, thereby pushing the block body 2122 to move along the height direction of the first aiming body 211; when the guide rod 2123 rotates in the opposite direction, the guide rod 2123 moves toward the direction of rotating out of the first guide groove 2110, and drives the block body 2122 to move, thereby changing the height of the guide hole 2120 on the first aiming body 211. The guide rod 2123 is movably connected to the block body 2122, so that the rotation of the guide rod 2123 does not drive the block body 2122 to rotate. In addition, the block 2122 is embedded in the first aiming body 211 , abuts against the first aiming body 211 , and is driven to move by the guide rod 2123 .

[0109] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the guide hole 2120 covers the area of ​​the first guide groove 2110 to form the first hole position 210. In this embodiment, the guide hole 2120 is a round hole, and the diameter of the guide hole 2120 is the same as the groove width of the guide groove. The dimension of the guide groove extending along the length direction of the gear lever is the groove width. The diameter range of the guide hole 2120 is 7mm-11mm, and the groove width range of the first guide groove 2110 is 7mm-11mm, that is, the size of the first hole position 210 in the above embodiment. In other embodiments, the groove width of the first guide groove 2110 may be different from the diameter of the guide hole 2120, and the hole formed by the guide hole 2120 covering the first guide groove 2110 is the first hole position 210. In this case, the diameter of the guide hole 2120 can be any value between 7mm-11mm, such as 10mm, 9mm or 8mm, and the width of the first guide groove 2110 is the same. The guide hole 2120 is not necessarily circular, and the first hole position 210 is not necessarily circular, and it is set according to actual conditions.

[0110] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the length of the first guide groove 2110 ranges from 14 mm to 16 mm, and the optional length of the first guide groove 2110 ranges from 15 mm to 15.5 mm. The length of the first guide groove 2110 is the length extending along the height direction of the first aiming body 211 .

[0111] In this example, if Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the first aiming member body 211 is provided with an aiming mark position 2112 and an initial mark position 2113, and one aiming mark position 2112 corresponds to the center of one first hole position 210. The aiming mark position 2112 and the initial mark position 2113 can be scale lines, and the second aiming member 22 is provided with a pointing mark 222, and the pointing mark 222 can be "△". The pointing mark 222 and the center of the second hole position 221 are located on the same horizontal line, and the pointing mark 222 is used to point to the initial mark position 2113 when the second aiming member 22 is located in the initial position, and is also used to point to the aiming mark position 2112 when the second aiming member 22 moves to the aiming position. In use, when the intramedullary nail aiming arm 100 is installed on the patient's affected limb bone, the second aiming member 22 is located in the initial position in the initial state, that is, the pointing mark 222 is aligned with the initial mark position 2113. Combined with the attached Figure 1 , Figure 13-Figure 19As shown, the following steps are performed. In the first step, a hole is drilled in the horizontal "∞" hole at the end of the second aiming member 22. This hole is a pre-judged hole. An X-ray is taken along the sagittal position of the affected limb to check whether the locking hole at the distal end of the intramedullary nail 500 is in the expected upward or downward direction. In the second step, a first hole position 210 is selected in the first aiming member 21. The center guide 8 is used to cooperate with the intramedullary nail locking hole positioning module 600 to drill a hole in the patient's affected limb bone through the first hole position 210 to form a pre-drilled hole. After checking that the annular drill of the 2.5 mm drill bit passes smoothly through the screw hole on the intramedullary nail 500, the intramedullary nail locking hole positioning module 600 is replaced to expand the hole to the expected diameter of 4-4.5 mm, and the installation of the locking screw in the first hole position is completed. In the third step, the center line of the horizontal "∞" hole at the distal end of the second aiming member 22 is adjusted to be on the same straight line with the center of the first hole position 210 drilled by the intramedullary nail locking hole positioning module 600 in the second step, and the pointing mark 222 points to the aiming mark position 2112, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 In the state of the hole, the second locking screw at the far end is installed according to the steps of pre-drilling, expanding the hole, and finally installing the locking screw. However, if it is found that the selected first hole position 510 is not suitable, it is necessary to move the adjustment block 512 to form a new first hole position 510, and repeat the second and third steps above. The above drilling size can be adjusted according to the implementation requirements.

[0112] Specifically, in this embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the initial marking position 2113 can be set on the center line of the first guide groove 2110 along the height direction. There are multiple aiming marking positions 2112, which can be distributed above or below the initial marking position 2113. The position of the adjusting member is moved to form the first hole positions, and the center of each first hole position points to the aiming marking position 2112. Therefore, when the second aiming member is adjusted, the pointing mark 222 can be directly pointed to the corresponding aiming marking position 2112 to achieve that the centers of the first hole position 210 and the second hole position 221 are on the same horizontal line.

[0113] In this example, the symmetric center of the first guide groove 2110 is located at the symmetric center of the first aiming body 211, that is, the center of the first guide groove is located at the center of the height direction of the first aiming body 211, but in other embodiments, the first guide groove 2110 can be set at a higher or lower position of the first aiming body 211.

[0114] Furthermore, if Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the first aiming member body 211 is detachably connected to the gear lever 1. Specifically, a dovetail groove can be provided at the distal end of the gear lever 1, and a dovetail groove protrusion structure is provided on the first aiming member body 211, which can be inserted into the groove and locked by a locking connector to facilitate detachable connection. It can be understood that the detachable connection structure is not limited to this, and other structures are also possible. In other embodiments, the first aiming member body 211 can also be fixedly connected to the gear lever 1, and the two are an integral part and cannot be detached.

[0115] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in order to quickly adjust the height of the second aiming member 22 and fix the second aiming member 22 to the first aiming member body 211, the aiming module 2 also includes: a lock 3 for locking or releasing the first aiming member body 211 and the second aiming member 22. The first aiming member body 211 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 2114 arranged along the height direction of the first aiming member body 211, one first hole position 210 corresponds to one limiting groove 2114, and the area of ​​the first aiming member body 211 corresponding to the initial position of the second aiming member 22 has a limiting groove 2114. The second aiming member 22 is provided with a slide groove extending along its height direction. The lock 3 includes: a movable rod 31, an elastic member 32 and a limiting member 33. The movable rod 31 is slidably arranged in the slide groove, and at least partially located outside the second aiming member 22. An unlocking groove 310 is provided on the movable rod 31. The elastic member 32 is arranged in the slide groove, and one end of the elastic member 32 abuts against the bottom of the movable rod 31. The limit member 33 is arranged on the second aiming member 22, and the limit member 33 is used to be embedded in any one of the limit slots 2114. When the movable rod 31 is pressed to slide to the unlocking position, the limit member 33 is aligned with the unlocking slot 310, and the second aiming member 22 can be moved at this time, and the second aiming member 22 drives the limit member 33 to move, and the side wall of the first aiming member pushes the limit member 33 to enter more into the unlocking slot, and the second aiming member 22 is unlocked from the first aiming member 21. When the second aiming member 22 drives the limit member to move into place, the limit member 33 is aligned with the appropriate limit slot 214, and the movable rod 31 is released. The movable rod 31 is pushed by the elastic member 32 to slide to the locking position, and the limit member 33 is pushed by the movable rod 31 to be embedded in the limit slot 214 and is located outside the unlocking slot 310 and abuts against the side wall of the movable rod 31, and the second aiming member 22 is locked and fixed with the first aiming member 21. Specifically, in this embodiment, if Figure 6There are seven middle limiting grooves 2114, which correspond to the centers of the six second hole positions 221 and the symmetric center of the first aiming body 211 where the first guide groove is located (the symmetric center of the first aiming body). When the second aiming member 22 is located at the initial position and is positioned and fixed with the first aiming body 211, the second aiming member 22 aligns the limiting groove 2114 at the symmetric center of the first aiming body 211 with the limiting member 33, and the side wall of the movable rod 31 pushes the limiting member 33 to be inserted into the limiting groove 2114. In this state, the second aiming member 22 is located at the initial position and is locked with the first aiming body 211. When unlocking is required, the movable rod 31 is pressed to align the limiting member 33 with the unlocking groove 310, and the second aiming member 22 is slightly moved. The limiting member 33 is pushed into the unlocking groove by the side wall of the first aiming member, so that the first aiming member 21 and the second aiming member 22 can move flexibly, and the second aiming member 22 is moved to the position to be moved. Release the movable rod 31, and the elastic member 32 can be a spring or a spring sheet to push the movable rod 31 to let the limiter 33 slide out of the unlocking groove 310, and the freedom of the first aiming body 211 and the second aiming member 22 in the sliding direction is limited, so that locking is achieved. In order to facilitate, the limiter 33 is a spherical member as a whole or the surface inserted into the unlocking groove 310 and the limiter groove 214 is a rounded surface. Through this structural design, the first aiming body 211 and the second aiming member 22 can be locked, which is convenient for operation. In addition, in order to facilitate the sliding of the second aiming member 22 relative to the first aiming body 211, a notch is set at the far end of the first aiming body 211, and a protruding block is set at the proximal end of the second aiming member 22 embedded in the notch. The matching sliding structure of the first aiming body 211 and the second aiming member 22 can be a dovetail groove structure, which is the same as the matching structure of the first aiming body 211 and the gear lever 1. Through the matching of the movable rod and the elastic member, the movable rod is pressed to achieve unlocking, and the movable rod is released to achieve locking. The overall adjustment structure is simple and convenient, and the operation time is reduced.

[0116] In addition, the first aiming body 211 is connected to the gear lever 1 by a locking connector 30, which is convenient for quickly fixing and locking the first aiming body 211 and the gear lever 1 or removing them. This structure is basically the same as the structure of the lock 3, and unlocking is achieved by pressing, so that disassembly is convenient and fast, saving surgical time. The locking of the first aiming member 21 and the gear lever 1 has only one gear position, and a limit groove is provided on the gear lever 1. The other movable rods, elastic members and limit member structures are the same as those described above and will not be elaborated here.

[0117] Further, if Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, an adjustment mark 2121 is provided on the adjustment block 212. The adjustment mark 2121 is provided on the block 2122, and a hollow groove 2111 is provided on the first aiming body 211. The adjustment mark 2121 is at least partially located in the hollow groove 2111 area. The adjustment mark 2121 is used to point to the aiming mark position 2112 or the initial mark position 2113 when the adjustment block 212 moves. Specifically, when it is necessary to place the first hole position 210 at the aiming position, the adjustment block 212 can be moved to make the adjustment mark 2121 point to the aiming mark position 2112, and the adjustment mark 2121 can be a triangular marking arrow. In this embodiment, there can be multiple aiming positions, which are arranged along the groove length direction of the first guide groove 2110, thereby forming multiple first hole positions 210. Specifically, during use, when a circular drill is used to pass through the first hole position 210 to drill a pre-drilled hole in the patient's affected limb bone, if it is found that the circular drill has successfully passed through the screw hole on the intramedullary nail, the hole will continue to be enlarged. However, if it is found that the drill bit has not successfully passed through the screw hole on the intramedullary nail, the adjustment block 212 is moved to allow the adjustment marking piece 2121 to point to other aiming positions to form another first hole position 210, and the circular drill passes through the other first hole position 210 to drill a hole.

[0118] The intramedullary nail aiming arm in this embodiment has a simple structure and a reduced number of components, and the installation steps of the lateral bracket in the existing equipment are omitted, which saves the doctor's operation time. In addition, there is no need to drill the lateral pressure rod hole on the patient's femur during the operation, which reduces the trauma to the affected limb bone and reduces the risk of secondary fracture in the distal femoral locking nail installation area. The second aiming piece is designed with a specific offset distance, and the offset adjustment of the aiming hole can be quickly realized during the operation, which saves the operation of active fine-tuning during the operation and effectively reduces the number of X-rays for doctors and patients.

[0119] Another embodiment of the present invention also relates to a method for using an intramedullary nail aiming system, wherein the intramedullary nail aiming system is the intramedullary nail aiming system in the above-mentioned implementation, and the outer diameter of the annular drill 7 used for expanding the hole in the plurality of intramedullary nail locking hole positioning modules 600 is greater than the outer diameter of the annular drill 7 used for drilling.

[0140] That is to say, taking the outer diameter of the ring drill 7 for drilling as 2.5 mm and the outer diameter of the ring drill 7 for expanding the hole as 4.5 mm as an example, in the first step, a 2.5 mm ring drill 7 (the ring drill 7 and the drill sleeve 6 are matched together) equipped with a center guide 8 is inserted into the first hole position to form a protection for the ring drill tooth area, so that the ring drill 7 is not easy to scratch or damage the soft tissue when passing through the surgical incision; in the second step, the center guide 8 is pulled out, and the surgical power is connected to the tail of the 2.5 mm ring drill 7, and a 2.5 mm pre-drilled hole 410 is drilled in the cortical bone of the femur of the affected limb, and an X-ray is taken to estimate the distal hole of the intramedullary nail. The distance from the center axis of the annular drill 7; the third step, according to the estimated distance, select the appropriate first hole position, the default selection of the 4.5mm hole position of the aiming module, according to the method of the first step, in the appropriate first hole position 210, install the 2.5mm annular drill 7 with the center guide 8, complete the pre-drilling 410 drilling; the fourth step, pull out the annular drill 7 and the drill sleeve 6, use the 2.5mm center guide 8 to "probe the hole", determine the positional relationship between the pre-drilled hole 410 on the cortical bone of the affected limb bone 400 and the locking nail hole 510 on the intramedullary nail, according to the "probing hole" result, there are three situations: a. Case 1 (such as Fig.17), the tip 81 of the central guide 8 passes smoothly through the intramedullary nail locking hole 510, and the next step is to use the ring drill 7 to expand the hole smoothly; b. Case 2 (such as Fig.18 ), the center guide 8 touches the metal, and after rotating a certain angle, its eccentric tip 81 can be inserted to a certain depth, and the next step is to switch the eccentric annular drill 7 to expand the hole for fine adjustment; c. Case 3 (such as Fig.19 ), the center guide 8 touches the metal, and after rotating a certain angle (180°), it still touches the metal. In the next step, the adjusting member 212 is moved to form a new first hole position; the fifth step, under the guidance of the center guide 8, a ring drill 7 of appropriate specifications is installed in the new first hole position (the ring drill 7 is matched with the drill sleeve 6) to complete the hole expansion, and the ring drill 7 can be selectively pulled out during the hole expansion; after the hole expansion is completed, the first locking screw at the distal end of the intramedullary nail is installed with a special tool; the sixth step: pull out the ring drill 7 and the drill sleeve 6 in the second hole position 221, unlock the locking member 3, adjust the center of the horizontal "∞" hole on the second aiming member and the center of the first hole position forming the locking hole to be on the same straight line, align the arrow with a certain scale line, install a ring drill 7 of appropriate specifications in the horizontal "∞" hole to complete the hole expansion, and after the hole expansion is completed, use a special tool to install the second locking screw at the distal end.
