Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pedicle screws, in particular to a hollow pedicle screw capable of being injected with bone cement. Background Art

[0002] Pedicle screws are generally used in spinal fracture reduction and fixation surgeries. This type of surgery only fixes the vertebral body, and the intervertebral disc between the vertebrae remains functional. The function of the screw is to reduce the fracture and maintain it in a better position. Generally, the screw needs to be removed about one year after the operation. During use, bone cement is usually poured as a reinforcement structure to assist in the anchoring of the pedicle screw.

[0003] After searching, it was found that there is a new type of bone cement injectable hollow pedicle screw with a publication number of CN220275692U, which includes: a screw tail and a screw body connected to the screw tail, and is used to solve the problem of obvious uneven distribution of bone cement along the depth direction of the screw. In this practice, the output bone cement still adopts an input method from shallow to deep. The deep part of the vertebral arch surgical point is prone to insufficient bone cement input pressure, resulting in insufficient bone cement input in the deep part of the vertebral arch fixation point, affecting the fixation effect of the screw; for this reason, we propose a bone cement injectable hollow pedicle screw.

[0020] See also Figure 2-Figure 3 A bone cement injectable hollow pedicle screw comprises: a guide tube 8, which is arranged inside a guide cavity 6, an outer retaining ring 9 is connected to the outer wall of one end of the guide tube 8, an inner retaining ring 10 is connected to the inner wall of one end of the guide tube 8 close to the outer retaining ring 9, the outer retaining ring 9 and the inner retaining ring 10 are connected to the guide tube 8 to form a rotation connection, and the outer retaining ring 9, the inner retaining ring 10 and the guide tube 8 are all made of medical synthetic rubber, and the guide tube 8 is telescopically connected to the screw body 5 through the outer retaining ring 9 and the inner retaining ring 10, and the guide tube 8 is used by medical staff to inject bone cement into the guide cavity 6, and through the outer retaining ring 9 and the inner retaining ring 10 In the expanded state, the bone cement first flows out from the mud outlet hole 7 at the farthest end of the screw body 5 from the nail cap 1 through the guide cavity 6, and then the bone cement flows out from the multiple groups of mud outlet holes 7 on the screw body 5 in sequence through the pulling of the medical staff, thereby reducing the occurrence of the situation where the screw body 5 is not fixed firmly due to uneven bone cement discharge; the end of the guide tube 8 away from the guide cavity 6 is connected with a trumpet-shaped injection tube 11, and the injection tube 11 is connected to the mud outlet hole 7 through the guide tube 8 and the guide cavity 6. The injection tube 11 is convenient for medical staff to inject bone cement into the guide cavity 6 through the enlarged opening, which is convenient for operation.

[0021] Working principle: For this type of bone cement injectable hollow pedicle screw, the medical staff first screws the screw body 5 into the patient's vertebral arch surgical point, selects a suitable volume of bone cement according to the depth of the screw body 5, and injects the prepared bone cement into the guide tube 8 through the injection tube 11 connected to one end of the guide tube 8. The injected bone cement is transported by the guide tube 8 and first enters the deepest part of the guide cavity 6 in the screw body 5, and is released and output through the deepest mud outlet hole 7. Then, as the medical staff withdraws the guide tube 8, the output position of the bone cement in the guide cavity 6 slowly moves from the deepest part to the shallower part, and more bone cement is input. When the guide tube 8 is pulled out, the outer retaining ring 9 and the inner retaining ring 10 will be pushed to slowly extend the guide tube 8, and the pressure at the anchoring point will not increase due to excessive bone cement input. The bone cement is scientifically released from the inside to the outside at the patient's surgical position, and the inside is solidified first, so that the fixing effect of the screw body 5 after anchoring is better, and when the guide tube 8 is pulled out, the guide tube 8 can be smoothly pulled out through the contraction of the outer retaining ring 9 and the inner retaining ring 10. Finally, the nail cap 1 is provided with an internal thread matching the wire drawing fixing bolt 2, which is convenient for connecting multiple fixed screw bodies 5, and the rotation angle of the installed screw body 5 and the nail cap 1 can be adjusted through the shaft seat 3 and the hollow ball shaft 4.
