Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a microfracture instrument kit. Background Art

[0002] Articular cartilage injury is the destruction of articular cartilage caused by acute trauma or chronic strain, which is quite common clinically. Microfracture surgery is mainly used for treatment to improve the condition, in order to repair the defective cartilage tissue through bone marrow stimulation and infiltration of the wound surface. Traditionally, a conical bone cone commonly used on the market is used. Through the operator's percussion, a hole with a diameter of about 3mm and a depth of 3-4mm is formed on the subchondral bone surface of the defective cartilage, so that the bone marrow blood under the cartilage seeps into the wound surface, forming a fibrous blood clot scaffold, and inducing fibrochondrocyte proliferation through bone marrow stem cells to repair articular cartilage. 1. The bone hole formed by the current instrument is conical with a depth of 3mm, and effective bone marrow blood is not easy to seep out; due to the mechanical action of the conical tip instrument, the microporous structure of the trabeculae is squeezed and deformed, forming a closed "bone wall", which affects the entry and exit of active bone marrow cells, thereby affecting the clinical efficacy. 2. Current instruments are all single-hole forming instruments. Clinically, the treatment of cartilage defects requires the formation of multiple microfracture holes in the cartilage defect area, which requires multiple knocks and multiple pull-outs. It is difficult to ensure the consistency of the direction of the bone holes. It is time-consuming, laborious, imprecise and controllable, and requires a high level of technical experience accumulation; 3. Since the clinical requirement for the hole spacing between the formed bone holes is about 3mm, multiple drillings test the doctor's skills, and the direction of each hole is difficult to control. The hole spacing is too small, which can easily cause microfracture fragmentation and form small bone fragment iatrogenic fractures. Summary of the invention

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0036] Referring to the drawings in the specification, a microfracture instrument kit includes a hole-opening device 1 and a guiding device 2 matched therewith. The hole-opening device 1 can be formed in one piece or in sections. The hole-opening device 1 can be inserted into the guiding device 2. The guiding device 2 can guide the hole-opening device 1 so as to perform reliable drilling in clinical practice.

[0037] The drilling device 1 includes a drill body 11 and a rod 12. The transition connection between the drill body 11 and the rod 12 can be an integral molding method or a welding method to connect the two together. Figure 4A As shown, the drill body 11 is inserted into the shaft 12 and the two are connected together by welding, or as shown in the attached Figure 4B As shown, the drill body 11 and the shaft 12 are formed in an integral manner, or as shown in the attached Figure 4C As shown, the drill body 11 and the shaft 12 are formed by multi-layer insertion welding. In addition, the transition connection between the drill body 1 and the shaft 12 can be designed with the same diameter, refer to the attached Figure 5A As shown, the diameters of the drill body 11 and the rod 12 at the connecting end are the same. Of course, the transition connection between the drill body 11 and the rod 12 can also be a step design, that is, refer to the attached Figure 5B and 5C The diameters of the drill body 11 and the rod 12 at the connecting ends are different, so that a step 10 is formed at the connecting ends of the two. As another embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 5B, the radial width of the rear end of the drill body 11 is greater than the radial width of the end of the shaft, it is necessary to set a design to limit the maximum depth of the drilling at the end of the shaft away from the drill body; as another embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 5C The design that the width of the rear end portion of the drill body 11 is smaller than the end portion of the shaft can effectively limit the maximum depth of the drilling.

[0038] See attached Figure 3 The drill body 11 can be roughly divided into a front section 1a, a middle section 1b and a rear section 1c. The length L1 of the head of the hole-opening device 1 passing through the head of the guide device 2 is in the range of 3 to 15 mm. The front section 1a has a twist drill 111. The diameter d1 of the twist drill 111 is in the range of 1.0 to 2.5 mm. Figure 6 The twist drill 111 includes a cutting blade 11a and a chip groove 11b. The angle θ between adjacent cutting blades 11a can be set to 30-120°. The number of the cutting blades and the chip grooves can be set to 1-4 respectively. The twist blade drill design of the present invention can facilitate the discharge of bone chips during the drilling process, and avoid the compression of trabeculae to form a closed "bone wall" that affects the exudation of active bone marrow substances. Compared with the front section 1a and the rear section 1c, the middle section 1b of the drill body presents a state of contraction from both ends to the middle. The middle section 1b can present an inward arc transition waist design. The middle section 1b can be an "olive head" waist design. This structural design is very conducive to chip removal and avoids the formation of a "bone wall". The rear section 1c of the drill body can be combined with a flexible and bendable shaft, so that the hole-opening device can flexibly enter and exit the curved space of the guide device.

[0039] See attached Figure 2A The shaft 12 is connected to the drill body 11. In another embodiment, referring to the attached Figure 2B The shaft 12 includes a serpentine curved connection part 121, the length L2 of the serpentine curved connection part 121 is 5 to 50 mm, the serpentine curved connection part 121 is connected to the drill body 11, one end of the shaft 12 is connected to the rear section 1c of the drill body, and the other end of the shaft is connected to a handle, the handle has an electric drive part, and the electric drive part is connected to an external power supply. Under the drive of the power supply, the drill body can move axially relative to the guide device. The electric drive part can be a motor. The serpentine on the serpentine curved connection part can be formed by laser cutting, and the serpentine design of the shaft can help the hole opening device turn in the curved pipe; the shaft 12 can be set as a single-layer or multi-layer structure, and the shaft can be adapted to the guide sleeve of the guide device, so that the effective bone drilling depth of the entire kit is between 3 and 15 mm.

[0040] The guide device 2 includes a guide sleeve 22, which can be arranged in a straight tube shape or can be arranged to be bent at a certain angle; the microfracture instrument kit also includes a handle 21, which is connected to one end of the shaft 12, and the handle 21 can be as shown in the attached Fig. 8A The straight handle shown, as shown in the attached Figure 8B The handle shown, or Figure 8C The length L3 of the guide sleeve 22 is 70-220 mm. The guide sleeve 22 includes a straight section b1 and a curved guide section b2. The curved guide section b2 is curved relative to the straight section b1. The curvature β of the curved guide section b2 relative to the straight section b1 is 0-90°. The transverse cross section s of the guide sleeve 22 can present different shapes, such as Figures 9A to 9D The circular, elliptical or square shape shown in the figure; the transverse cross section s is provided with a channel s1, and the channel s1 can be a plurality of channels s1 arranged in parallel, the number of the channels is, for example, 3 to 20 holes, the aperture d2 of each channel is 1.2 to 2.7 mm, and the spacing between the hole walls L4 of adjacent channels s1 is 2 to 4 mm, wherein at the bone contact end of the guide device, the shortest distance between the edge of the hole closest to the boundary of the guide device and the boundary of the guide device is 0.5 to 3 mm. Further, in one embodiment, referring to the attached Fig. 10A The guide sleeve 22 can be formed by an integral molding method to form an integral bending guide sleeve having a plurality of channels; in another embodiment, the guide sleeve 22 can also be formed by welding, see the attached Fig. 10B The guide sleeve 22 is formed by welding a large tube into a small tube and performing welding at the end surface to form the porous guide sleeve of the present invention.

[0041] In another preferred embodiment, referring to the attached Fig.11 The bone contact end of the guide device 2 forms a conical point 2a, and the number of the conical points 2a ranges from 1 to 5. In this way, the conical point design at the bone contact end can effectively stabilize the guide device and avoid the problem of sliding instability during the doctor's operation. Fig. 12A To Attachment Fig.12EThe operation mode of the microfracture instrument kit of the utility model is as follows: first, select a guide device 2 with a suitable angle and place it on the cartilage surface; then, select a suitable hole-opening device 1, install it on the hand drill, and drill it in sequence through the channel in the guide device 2; finally, when all the hole-opening devices 1 are drilled to the depth limit position, the hole-opening devices are taken out in sequence. In the whole process, the actions required by the doctor are to guide, drill in, and drill out, and form multiple microfracture holes in one step. After the improvement of the microfracture instrument kit of the utility model, the clinical effect is more obvious, the work efficiency is greatly improved, and the use is safer, more accurate and controllable; it changes the conical hole formed by the existing microfracture conical tip into a cylindrical shape, the drilling is deeper, the effective ingredient seepage effect is better, and the formation of a "bone wall" of the bone hole is avoided; through the multi-porous parallel design of the guide device, the direction is controllable to avoid iatrogenic fractures; the limit design of the hole-opening device uses the guide sleeve for one-time positioning, which is convenient for drilling and reduces the operation time. After using the kit of the present invention, during the entire surgical process, the doctor only needs to determine the position and direction of the guide device, drive the hole-opening device, and use the guide device to complete the microfracture drilling in one go. The drilling during the entire surgical process is accurate, controllable, efficient and safe.
