Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of artificial joints, and particularly relates to a distal shaping system and a matching module. Background Art
[0002] The distal shaping system combines advanced materials science, robotics, and computer-aided design (CAD), enabling doctors to precisely control in-vivo instruments by manipulating these systems away from the surgical site. The system typically includes one or more remotely controllable modules that can adjust their shape and hardness as needed to adapt to different anatomical structures or surgical requirements. For example, in cardiovascular interventional therapy, a distal shaping catheter can be precisely guided to the target location inside the heart without open-chest surgery. With the development of modern medical technology, the demand for minimally invasive and non-invasive treatment methods is increasing. The distal shaping system and the matching module are innovative medical devices developed in this context, aiming to provide safer and more effective treatment options for patients.
[0003] Most of the femoral distal shaping systems currently used in the market perform osteotomy shaping at a single angle and with a single bone mass. Facing the different femoral wear amounts and knee joint alignment angles of patients in clinical surgeries, the distal shaping system cannot be precisely adjusted, and the knee joint alignment and angle before the patient's illness cannot be fully restored, which is contrary to the replacement concept of "repairing the old as the old" for unicompartmental knee replacement. Due to the differences in the knee joint alignment and angle after surgery compared to before the illness, the patient's postoperative recovery effect is poor, the knee joint movement is unnatural, and there is also a risk of increasing the wear of the contralateral compartment of the knee joint. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a distal shaping system and a matching module, aiming to solve the problem that most of the femoral distal shaping systems in the prior art perform osteotomy shaping at a single angle and with a single bone mass. Facing the different femoral wear amounts and knee joint alignment angles of patients in clinical surgeries, the distal shaping system cannot be precisely adjusted, and the knee joint alignment and angle before the patient's illness cannot be fully restored, which is contrary to the replacement concept of "repairing the old as the old" for unicompartmental knee replacement. Due to the differences in the knee joint alignment and angle after surgery compared to before the illness, the patient's postoperative recovery effect is poor, the knee joint movement is unnatural, and there is also a risk of increasing the wear of the contralateral compartment of the knee joint.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A distal shaping system and a matching module, comprising:
[0007] An osteotomy module;
[0008] The insertion rod is fixedly connected to one side end of the osteotomy module;
[0009] The force line positioning module is arranged on one side of the osteotomy module;
[0010] The perforation is opened at one side end of the force line positioning module;
[0011] The pointing module and the installation groove are both opened at one side end of the osteotomy module;
[0012] The guiding module is arranged in the installation groove;
[0013] The support module is arranged on the other side of the osteotomy module;
[0014] The pointing support rod is fixedly connected to one side end of the support module. The pointing support rod is located within the pointing module, and the osteotomy module is sleeved on the surface of the pointing support rod.
[0015] As a preferred solution of the present invention, a hollow groove is opened at one side end of the support module, and a first adjusting gasket and a second adjusting gasket are arranged in the hollow groove.
[0016] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the thickness of the first adjusting gasket is 2 mm, and the thickness of the second adjusting gasket is 4 mm.
[0017] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the osteotomy module can move on the surface of the pointing support rod, and scales are arranged on the surface of the osteotomy module.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0019] 1. The osteotomy module and the support module are combined components, which solve the problems that in the existing femoral distal shaping system, due to problems in the cooperation of each component during the operation, the risk of inaccurate osteotomy amount and offset of the osteotomy position in femoral osteotomy occurs. It solves the problem that in the existing unicondylar surgery femoral distal shaping system, when used in combination with other instruments, there are large errors, and there is a risk of inaccurate osteotomy amount and offset of the osteotomy position in femoral osteotomy, resulting in the need for secondary osteotomy of the femur, reducing the risk of wound infection or secondary injury to the patient. At the same time, it solves the problem that the osteotomy amount of the surgical tool cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the bone defect amount of the patient.
[0020] 2. The varus and valgus angles of the femur can be adjusted through the pointing module, and the functions of adjusting the osteotomy amount and osteotomy angle according to the actual situation of the patient can be realized, improving the flexible operability of the surgical tool. By increasing the specifications of the guiding module, the osteotomy amount can be flexibly adjusted, solving the problems that the wear amount of the patient's femur and the knee joint force line angle are different in clinical operations.
[0021] 3. Add a slot in the support module. Different specifications of adjusting shims can be added to adjust the femoral osteotomy amount and fill the joint space, meeting the usage requirements of patients with excessive bone defect. It can cooperate with the mechanical axis positioning module to adjust and evaluate the mechanical axis of the patient's knee joint, avoiding poor postoperative recovery, unnatural knee joint movement, and increased risk of wear on the contralateral compartment of the knee joint caused by changes in the mechanical axis after surgery.
