Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lumbar vertebrae internal fixation instruments, in particular to a lumbar spondylolysis internal fixation device. Background Art

[0002] Lumbar spondylolysis is a discontinuous bone defect in the isthmus between the upper and lower articular processes of the lumbar vertebrae on one or both sides, also known as spondylolysis or isthmic nonunion; patients are mostly adolescents, with a higher incidence in males, and can occur in any segment; spondylolysis often occurs at L4 or L5, or at both L4 and L5, with varying widths of the crack, often occurring 2-9mm below the pedicle, with serrated or rounded ends, and may form bone bridges; the defect is often filled with fibrocartilage tissue.

[0003] An existing patent (publication number: CN114052872A) discloses a controllable and adjustable internal fixation device for lumbar spondylolysis, which improves the internal fixation device for spondylolysis by cooperating with a first arc rod, a second arc rod, a screw rod, a screw rod connecting portion, a U-shaped fixing screw groove, a vertebral hook plate, a pedicle screw, a nut, and an adjusting T-rod. The connecting arm structure between the vertebral hook plate and the screw cap fixing portion is designed to be adjustable, and the structure for realizing telescopic adjustment is a knob screw rod plus mechanical engagement. The connecting arm can be contracted by adjusting the screw rod connecting portion to achieve the purpose of moving the vertebral hook plate and the screw cap fixing portion toward each other, thereby applying pressure to the spondylolysis and docking it, and then internal fixation is directly performed through the device until new bone is produced at the spondylolysis and the spondylolysis is healed.

[0004] However, the above technical solution still has certain defects. The lamina hook has a fixed length, and the extension length of the lamina hook can only be adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the screw plug, thereby adjusting the tightening strength of the isthmic spondylosis. The adjustment method is cumbersome. However, since the length of the lamina hook is fixed, excessive adjustment of the lamina hook by the screw plug will expand the surgical area. Therefore, when the isthmic spondylosis needs to be tightened to a size that is too large or too small, the lamina hook must be replaced. Generally, the tightening distance of the lamina hook can only be judged based on the doctor's experience and cannot be measured. For this reason, a lumbar spondylosis internal fixation device is proposed. Utility Model Content
