Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a cylindrical closed-end tendon remover. Background Art

[0002] During sports injuries or violent trauma in car accidents, the violent twisting of the knee joint produces huge shear and tension forces, which can lead to single or multiple ligament injuries of the knee joint, such as anterior and posterior cruciate ligament injuries and medial and lateral collateral ligament injuries. Anterior cruciate ligament injuries of the knee joint are very common. Since the anterior cruciate ligament is an important structure to maintain the stability and normal activity of the knee joint, and lacks good self-repair ability after injury, if the injury is severe and causes it to lose its biomechanical properties or even completely rupture, surgical treatment is required to restore its continuity and mechanical properties. Using tendons from other parts of the patient's body as grafts to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament is currently the most commonly used surgical treatment technique for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in clinical practice. In the past, autologous hamstring tendons were often selected as ligament grafts for reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament, with good results. However, recent studies have found that the stability and ability to resist rotational tension of the knee joint after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament with hamstring tendons as grafts are significantly lower than those of the anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed with quadriceps tendons as grafts. At present, there are few tendon harvesters for quadriceps tendons on the market, and existing products still have shortcomings. Currently, there are few tendon harvesters for quadriceps tendon on the market. The existing products have cumbersome and laborious tendon harvesting procedures, rough edges of the harvested grafts, and the size of the grafts cannot be accurately determined. These shortcomings will seriously affect the efficacy of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. To address the shortcomings of current products, we designed a cylindrical closed-end tendon harvester. Utility Model Content

[0004] The embodiment of the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: it includes a cylindrical tendon sheath used when the quadriceps tendon taken from the body is used as a cylindrical graft in knee cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery, and a cutting sleeve used to cut the cylindrical graft, the cylindrical tendon sheath is hollow from the head to the end and the hollow is cylindrical, the cutting sleeve is hollow, the outer diameter of the cutting sleeve is smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical tendon sheath and the two are in a matching state, the cutting sleeve can extend from the hollow position of the end of the cylindrical tendon sheath to a position almost close to the head end, the cylindrical tendon sheath is provided with a graft through groove for graft removal, the head end of the cylindrical tendon sheath is inclined, and the outer surface of the cylindrical tendon sheath is provided with scale values.

[0005] Furthermore, an operating handle is provided at the end of the cylindrical tendon removal sheath, and an outer surface of the operating handle is provided with an anti-slip thread.

[0006] Furthermore, two operating blocks are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the operating handle, and the two operating blocks and the operating handle form a T-shaped arrangement.

[0011] At least one of the above technical solutions adopted in the embodiment of the utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0012] When the medical staff removes the quadriceps tendon graft from the patient, they first make a 2-3 cm transverse skin incision on the upper edge of the patella, bluntly separate the subcutaneous tissue, and expose the part where the quadriceps tendon is connected to the upper edge of the patella. Use a scalpel to free the part of the quadriceps tendon located in the middle of the upper edge of the patella, determine the diameter of the free end of the graft according to the needs, and then use surgical sutures to weave the free end of the graft to play a role in traction and fixation. At this time, the suture at the free end of the graft is sent into the head end of the cylindrical tendon sheath and sent out from the tail end of the cylindrical tendon sheath. The medical staff pulls the suture to fix the free end of the graft with one hand, and holds the T-shaped operating handle with the other hand, gradually rotating the cylindrical tendon sheath concentrically in the direction of the quadriceps tendon and pushing it forward until the cylindrical tendon sheath cuts the graft to the required length. The suture and the free graft are completely removed from the graft channel, and the cutting sleeve is pushed from the end of the cylindrical tendon sheath to the head end to cut the end where the graft is connected to the quadriceps tendon, and the graft is completely removed.

[0013] This device is specially designed for conveniently cutting and intercepting cylindrical cruciate ligament grafts from autologous quadriceps tendon.
