Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of orthopedic surgery teaching models, and in particular to a display model for osteotomy around the knee joint, specifically a teaching model for surgical methods (including high tibial osteotomy and distal femoral osteotomy) for treating knee varus and valgus deformities in clinical surgical operations. Background Art
[0002] Knee joint lower limb force line deformity is a common knee joint disease in orthopedic surgery, which can be divided into two major categories: varus deformity and valgus deformity. When the cartilage degeneration in the knee joint is relatively mild, the lower limb force line can be corrected surgically for treatment.
[0003] Among them, the most common cause of knee joint varus deformity is abnormal development of the proximal tibia, resulting in too small development of the medial angle of the proximal tibia (<85°). The lower limb force line passes through the medial compartment, causing stress to concentrate in the medial compartment, resulting in medial cartilage degeneration. The common symptom is that the patient has an O-shaped leg and pain in the medial knee joint. In orthopedic surgery, high tibial osteotomy is often used for correction. mainly, after osteotomy of the proximal tibia, it is spread open medially. Through biplane high tibial osteotomy, with the lateral side of the proximal tibia as the hinge, the medial side is spread open to the pre-designed angle, and the force line passes through the center of the tibial plateau or 55% of the lateral side. Then, internal fixation with a steel plate is applied. After 3 to 6 months, the osteotomy fracture heals naturally, and the internal and external stress is balanced, achieving the purpose of relieving the pressure in the medial compartment of the knee joint, promoting the repair of medial cartilage, and relieving pain.
[0004] Furthermore, the most common cause of knee joint valgus deformity is abnormal development of the distal femur, resulting in too small development of the lateral angle of the distal femur (<85°). The lower limb force line passes through the lateral compartment, causing stress to concentrate in the lateral compartment, resulting in lateral compartment cartilage degeneration. The common symptom is that the patient has an X-shaped leg and pain in the lateral knee joint. In orthopedic surgery, distal femoral osteotomy is often used for correction. mainly, after osteotomy of the distal femur, it is closed. Through biplane distal femoral osteotomy, with the lateral side of the distal femur as the hinge, after cutting off the medial wedge-shaped osteotomy block, the medial femur is closed, so that the lower limb force line passes through the center of the knee joint or 55% of the medial side. Then, fixation with a steel plate is applied. After 3 to 6 months, the osteotomy fracture heals naturally, and the internal and external stress is balanced, achieving the purpose of relieving the pressure in the lateral compartment of the knee joint, promoting the repair of lateral cartilage, and relieving pain.
[0005] Therefore, based on the above technical problems, those skilled in the art urgently need to develop a display model for osteotomy around the knee joint. Summary of the Invention

[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0021] See Figures 1 to 7 as shown; The tibial high osteotomy demonstration model of this embodiment, this demonstration model includes: Lower limb model 1; and A force line simulation rod 4 movably connected to the lower limb model 1; and A support structure for supporting the lower limb model 1; The lower limb model 1 is divided into a pelvis model 101, a femur model 103, a tibia model 105 and a foot model 106; The connection between the tibia model 105 and the femur model 103 is the knee joint 104. A first hinge 301 is provided in the knee joint area on one side, and a second hinge 302 is provided in the knee joint area on the other side; The knee joint area on one side is closed through the first hinge 301 to simulate varus deformity of the knee joint; The knee joint area on the other side is opened through the second hinge 302 to simulate valgus deformity of the knee joint; The force line simulation rod 4 moves along with the varus and valgus of the knee joint, thereby simulating the force line distribution before and after the correction of varus and valgus.
[0022] Specifically, this embodiment discloses a teaching model for a surgical method (including tibial high osteotomy and distal femoral osteotomy) for treating varus and valgus deformities of the knee joint in clinical surgery. It can simulate the morphology of varus and valgus deformities of the knee joint and the stress conditions under varus and valgus deformity states. It simulates the direction of force conduction under varus and valgus deformity states of the knee joint through a force line simulation rod. Specifically, the demonstration model of this embodiment includes a lower limb model 1, a support structure for supporting the entire model, and a force line simulation rod 4 connecting the corresponding positions of the lower limb model 1; among them, in the manner shown in the figure, the first hinge 301 is integrated on the left side and the second hinge 302 is integrated on the right side in this embodiment. The left side is closed through the first hinge 301 to simulate the varus deformity state of the knee joint, and the postoperative state of correcting the varus deformity of the knee joint by tibial high osteotomy is simulated by opening through 301; the right side is opened through the second hinge 302 to simulate the valgus deformity state of the knee joint, and the postoperative state of correcting the valgus deformity of the knee joint by distal femoral osteotomy is simulated by closing the second hinge 302. At the same time, the change in the direction of force conduction can be intuitively seen through the force line simulation rod 4 with position change.
[0023] Preferably, the pelvic model 101 of this embodiment is connected to the sacral model 102 in the middle; the femoral model 103 is movably connected to the lower part of the pelvic model 101; the femoral model 103 and the tibial model 105 are connected through corresponding knee joint models; the foot model 106 is movably connected to the lower end of the tibial model 105.
[0024] In this embodiment, the proximal end of the pelvic model 101 is fixed on the sacral model 102, so that the pelvic model 101 presents a standing spatial state of the human body. The sacral model 102 and the pelvic model 101 are integrated, and the entire skeleton is in a suspended state under the support of the support structure.
[0025] In addition, the tibial model 105 and the femoral model 103 of this embodiment are connected by medial and lateral collateral ligaments. The medial and lateral collateral ligaments are made of soft materials and have a certain tension. The femoral and tibial side attachment points are fixed by glue, and the medial and lateral collateral ligaments can be slightly stretched when the tibia is valgus or varus relative to the femur.
[0026] Preferably, the support structure of this embodiment includes a bracket 201 extending in the vertical direction; and a base 202 located at the bottom of the bracket 201; The upper end of the bracket 201 passes through the lower part of the pelvic model 101 and extends to the upper part of the pelvic model 101. The upper end of the bracket 201 extends with support rods 203 in different directions, and the support rods 203 are connected to the corresponding positions of the pelvic model 101 to support the pelvic model 101.
[0027] Among them, the force line simulation rod 4 of this embodiment is configured as a straight rod extending in a direction perpendicular to the ground; The upper end of the force line simulation rod 4 is rotatably connected to the connection between the pelvic model 101 and the femoral model 103 through a rotating member, and can move slightly up and down along an elliptical slot; The lower end of the force line simulation rod 4 is rotatably connected to the connection between the foot model 106 and the tibial model 105 through a rotating member; The position of the force line simulation rod 4 cooperating with the knee joint 104 is movably connected through a sliding member, and the force line simulation rod 4 can move horizontally relative to the knee joint 104.
[0028] Based on the connection of the above force line simulation rod 4, this embodiment is divided into left and right sides in the way shown in the figure, specifically: A first hinge 301 is provided at the connection between the left tibial model 105 and the knee joint 104; A second hinge 302 is provided at the connection between the right femoral model 103 and the knee joint 104.
[0029] When the first hinge 301 is in a closed state, the left lower limb is in an internal rotation deformity state, and the force line simulation rod 4 passes through the medial compartment of the knee joint.
[0030] When the first hinge 301 is in the open state, the left lower limb is in a normal mechanical axis state, and the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 passes through the center of the knee joint.; When the second hinge 302 is in the open state, the right lower limb shows a valgus deformity of the knee joint, and the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 passes through the lateral compartment of the knee joint.
[0031] When the second hinge 302 is in the closed state, the right lower limb is in a normal mechanical axis state, and the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 passes through the center of the knee joint; This embodiment further defines the structure of the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 and the connection positions. At the same time, in the way of the left and right sides shown in the figure, the internal and external valgus deformities of the left and right lower limbs are simulated respectively through the first hinge 301 and the second hinge 302.
[0032] In order to meet the movement requirements of the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 when the knee joint 104 has internal and external valgus, so as to more intuitively observe the force change, a first oblong slot 401 is opened at the upper part of the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 in this embodiment. And the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 is rotationally connected to the connection parts of the pelvis model 101 and the femur model 103 through the first rotating shaft 501, and can move up and down along the oblong slot; The lower end of the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 is rotationally connected to the foot model 106 and the tibia model 105 through the second rotating shaft 502; A second oblong slot 402 is opened at the middle position of the mechanical axis simulation rod 4, and a chute 403 extending in the horizontal direction is opened on the knee joint 104. The middle position of the mechanical axis simulation rod 4 is slidably connected to the chute 403 through the third rotating rod 503. Among them, the slot on the left side is from the center of the knee joint to the medial side of the knee joint, and the right side is from the center of the knee joint to the lateral side of the knee joint.
[0033] Through the above connection relationship, it is not difficult to see that when the left first hinge 301 is in the closed state, the left lower limb is in an internal valgus deformity state at this time. Due to the internal valgus of the knee joint, the left mechanical axis simulation rod 4 will slide inward along the chute, indicating that the stress is concentrated on the medial side of the knee joint. When the right second hinge 302 is in the open state, the right lower limb is in an external valgus deformity state at this time. Due to the external valgus of the knee joint, the right mechanical axis simulation rod 4 will slide outward along the chute, indicating that the stress is concentrated on the lateral side of the knee joint.
[0034] Furthermore, the opening of the first hinge 301 is used to simulate high tibial osteotomy and the closing of the second hinge 302 is used to simulate distal femoral osteotomy to correct the mechanical axis, so as to achieve the purpose of treating knee joint internal and external valgus.
[0035] Preferably, the talus part of the foot model 106 of the lower limb model 1 in this embodiment is filled with lead. In this way, the overall center of gravity is located at the center of the ankle joint, and the two lower limbs can take 501 as the axis and be perpendicular to the ground.
[0036] As an extended implementation method, the lower limb model 1 of this embodiment is entirely made of PVC material, the support structure is made of stainless steel metal, and the material of the force line simulation rod 4 can be selected as PVC material. The rotating parts and hinges are both made of stainless steel. At the same time, magnets or magnetic surfaces are provided on the pages of the hinges to ensure that the closed state will not open by itself, and it can also ensure that it will not close after being opened.
[0037] In the above technical solution, a model for demonstrating osteotomy around the knee joint provided by the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The demonstration model of the present invention can be used when conducting surgical education for patients or teaching surgical knowledge to students. It can demonstrate the principle of the occurrence of knee varus and valgus deformities, as well as the specific surgical operation principle and process, so that patients or students can achieve the purpose of intuitive understanding and learning.
[0038] Only some exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been described by way of illustration above. Without doubt, for those of ordinary skill in the art, various different ways can be used to modify the described embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
