[0051] In addition, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, “a plurality of” means two or more.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 10 , an embodiment of the utility model provides an internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fractures.

[0053] Combine Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 9 The internal fixation device includes an iliopectineal plate 1 and an iliosacral plate 2 that are connected. Both the iliopectineal plate 1 and the iliosacral plate 2 are steel plates that are approximately anatomically designed based on the shape of the pelvis 8. The iliopectineal plate 1 is located on the arcuate line 81 and extends toward the pubic bone 84 to form the iliopectineal plate 1; fused with the iliopectineal plate 1, a branch extends from the vicinity of the first lumbar hole 11 toward the lowest point of the ischium 83 to form the iliosacral plate 2. The internal fixation device as a whole forms a Y shape. The angle between the plane where the iliopectineal plate 1 is located and the plane where the iliosacral plate 2 is located is an acute angle. Optionally, the angle between the plane where the iliopectineal plate 1 is located and the plane where the iliosacral plate 2 is located is 45° to 80°. It can further be selected from 45° to 60° or 60° to 80°.

[0054] The internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fracture provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 3 The internal fixation device also includes a posterior column screw 3 and a subacetabular screw 4. The iliopectine plate 1 is provided with a first waist-shaped hole 11 that cooperates with the posterior column screw 3 and a second waist-shaped hole 12 that cooperates with the subacetabular screw 4. The first waist-shaped hole 11 is used to implant the posterior column screw 3, and the second waist-shaped hole 12 is used to implant the subacetabular screw 4. The size of the first waist-shaped hole 11 is larger than that of the posterior column screw 3, and the size of the second waist-shaped hole 12 is larger than that of the subacetabular screw 4, which facilitates the appropriate adjustment of the implantation position of the posterior column screw 3 according to different patients. The iliopectine plate 2 is connected to the iliopectine plate 1 near the first waist-shaped hole 11.

[0055] The internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fracture provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 4 The iliopectine plate 1 is provided with a plurality of first retaining holes 13 for fixing the iliopectine plate 1. Optionally, the number of the first retaining holes 13 is 6 to 8, preferably 7, which can facilitate flexible fixation of different patients during surgery.

[0056] The internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fracture provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 3 , and also includes a plurality of first fixing screws 7, wherein the first fixing screws 7 are provided in the first retaining holes 13, and the iliopectine plate 1 is fixed by passing the first fixing screws 7 through the first retaining holes 13.

[0057] The internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fracture provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 4 The iliac seat plate 2 is provided with a plurality of second retention holes 21. Optionally, the number of the second retention holes 21 is 2 to 4, preferably 3. The iliac seat plate 2 is located on the inner side of the pelvis 8, approximately extending to the ischial spine 83. Inserting screws during surgery is difficult, so only the second retention holes 21 are provided for selective fixation.

[0058] The internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fractures provided by the present invention further includes a plurality of second fixing screws, which are provided in the second retaining holes 21 , and the iliac seat plate 2 is fixed by the second fixing screws passing through the second retaining holes 21 .

[0059] The internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fracture provided by the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 、 3 A plurality of blocking screws 5 are provided between the iliopectine plate 1 and the iliocelli 2. Each blocking screw 5 is respectively enclosed with the iliopectine plate 1 and the iliocelli 2 to form a triangle, making the iliopectine plate 1 and the iliocelli 2 more stable.

[0060] In one embodiment, if Figure 1, the iliopectine plate 1 includes a side wing 6, and the side wing 6 is between the first waist-shaped hole 11 and the second waist-shaped hole 12, and is close to the second waist-shaped hole 12. Specifically, the iliopectine plate 1 branch is slightly extended about 5mm-10mm (that is, the width of the side wing 6) toward the inside of the pelvis 8 to form the side wing 6. For example, the side wing 6 is located in the lower half of the iliopectine plate 1. The side wing 6 is provided with a locking hole 61 that matches the head end of each blocking screw 5. There are multiple locking holes 61. For example, 2-3 holes for implanting blocking screws 5 are provided on the side wing 6, which are locking holes 61, and the direction points to the groove on the side of the iliopectine plate 2 for implanting blocking screws 5. As Figure 4 The iliopectine plate 2 is provided with corresponding receiving grooves 22 for receiving the tail ends of the blocking screws 5. The blocking screws 5 are connected to the iliopectine plate 1 and the iliopectine plate 2 through the locking holes 61 and the receiving grooves 22, thereby forming a triangular structure.

[0061] The present invention inserts blocking screws 5 through the multiple locking holes 61 on the side wings 6. During use, the blocking screws 5 are located at the quadrilateral 82, pointing toward the grooves on the sides of the iliac seat 2. After the blocking screws 5 are inserted, a fence-like structure is formed, thereby reinforcing the quadrilateral 82. The present application does not design the quadrilateral 82 as a fully enclosed steel plate, but instead uses blocking screws 5 to secure the quadrilateral 82. Although the fully enclosed steel plate design of the quadrilateral 82 may theoretically provide a better blocking effect, it presents many practical problems.

[0062] First, its large size makes it difficult to place during surgery;

[0063] Second: The connection area of ​​the steel plates is large, which is not conducive to plasticity;

[0064] Third, the surgical field is filled with important blood vessels, nerves, and internal organs, and placement is done stealthily within the operating window. A large plate would be difficult to operate and implant, adding complexity to the surgery.

[0065] Fourth: Placing a larger plate may make the surgical opening larger;

[0066] Fifth: Because the quadrilateral 82 bone surface is not flat and regular, even if the fully enclosed steel plate is made into an anatomical shape, it is difficult to achieve close "surface-to-surface contact" between the steel plate and the bone surface. Instead, it is "point-to-surface contact", which leads to the difference between the actual blocking effect and the ideal effect.

[0067] Sixth: The full-cover steel plate can generally only be used after the posterior column and quadrilateral 82 are reduced, and its auxiliary reduction effect is poor.

[0068] Therefore, based on the above, the present application has made an iliopectineal fusion steel plate combined with a blocking screw 5 to achieve blocking fixation of the quadrilateral 82. In this way, the designed steel plate has a small area, is flexible in application, and is easy to plasticize. The blocking screw 5 is more likely to fit the quadrilateral 82 to achieve line-surface contact, and there is no obvious space occupying effect. The blocking effect is better, and the screw also has an auxiliary reduction effect during the insertion process.

[0069] Optionally, the number of blocking screws 5 is 2-3, which is generally sufficient to achieve a fixation effect. If there are too many screws, the double-row holes of the iliopectine plate 1 will be longer, and the ilioccipital plate 2 will also need to be designed longer. Since there are important tissues on the inner side, too many screws will make the operation more difficult and increase the risk, while at the same time, it will not affect the overall structure of the steel plate.

[0070] The use process of this utility model:

[0071] like Figures 5-10 When using the device, the iliopectineal plate 2 is plastically pre-bent. After the fracture fragment is reduced, the iliopectineal plate 1 is first extended along the arcuate line 81 toward the pubic bone 84 to fit the bone surface. The iliopectineal plate 2 is then aligned toward the lowest point of the ischium 83 to fit the bone surface. First fixation screws 7 are then driven into the upper and lower first retention holes 13 of the iliopectineal plate 1. After initial fixation, blocking screws 5 are respectively inserted through the locking holes 61 on the lateral wings 6. The tail ends of the blocking screws 5 are placed in the receiving grooves 22 of the iliopectineal plate 2, thereby further forming a triangular stable structure of the iliopectineal plate 1 and iliopectineal plate 2 for reduction and reinforcement. The posterior column screws 3 and the subacetabular screws 4 are then driven. Finally, first fixation screws 7 are driven into the remaining first retention holes 13 and second fixation screws are driven into the second retention hole 21 as needed.

[0072] In summary, the internal fixation device for treating pelvic acetabular fractures of the present invention effectively plays a fixing role by fusing the iliopectineal plate 1 and the iliosacral plate 2 into one. At the same time, a blocking device (blocking screw 5) is provided on the quadrilateral 82 to reinforce the quadrilateral 82 and prevent it from collapsing. For patients who have already suffered fractures, the device can not only play a role of fixing and reinforcing, but also can perform a certain reduction on the quadrilateral 82.

[0073] In summary, the present invention effectively overcomes various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial utilization value.

[0074] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical principles disclosed in the present invention are intended to be covered by the claims of the present invention.
