Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices and related fields, and in particular to a split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate. Background Technology

[0002] Habitual patellar dislocation in adults, a common condition in sports medicine, often requires surgical treatment. The surgery includes lateral knee joint release, medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, and tibial tuberosity transfer. This surgical technique effectively improves knee joint function and reduces patient pain. Tibial tuberosity transfer requires tibial tuberosity osteotomy, which alters the patellar movement trajectory, improves patellofemoral joint stress, and ultimately stabilizes the patella and reduces pressure on the patellar cartilage. The size of the osteotomy fragment is related to the distance of transfer and the healing rate of the osteotomy site. Obtaining a suitable-sized fragment often results in a large incision with the aid of an osteotomy guide, which is difficult for patients to tolerate. Currently, minimally invasive osteotomy can be performed through a 4cm distal lateral incision of the tibial tuberosity, but the fragment size is irregularly trapezoidal, making osteotomy more challenging and difficult to master. Therefore, a split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, and to solve the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate, comprising:

[0004] Osteotomy guide plate, four oblique Kirschner wires, handle;

[0005] The handle is mounted on the osteotomy guide plate;

[0006] The osteotomy guide plate is provided with four through holes, and a beveled Kirschner wire is inserted into each through hole;

[0007] The osteotomy guide plate is also provided with an osteotomy groove.

[0008] In the aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate, the osteotomy groove extends along the length direction of the osteotomy guide plate from its width direction.

[0009] In the aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate, both inner walls of the osteotomy groove are recessed inward to form several grooves, and the grooves of the two inner walls are arranged opposite each other, forming a fixing hole.

[0010] The aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate has two threaded holes, which are symmetrically arranged along the osteotomy groove.

[0011] In the aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate, one end of the handle is provided with a threaded rod, which can be installed in any of the threaded holes.

[0012] In the aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate, the outer wall of the handle is provided with several anti-slip grooves.

[0013] The aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate has rounded corners on all its edges.

[0014] In the aforementioned split-type tibial tuberosity osteotomy guide plate, the edges and corners of the osteotomy groove are all rounded.

[0015] The positive effects of the above technical solution compared with the existing technology are:

[0016] 1. This utility model designs an osteotomy guide plate based on the relatively smooth cortical bone of the medial and lateral sides of the distal tibial tuberosity. This allows the plate to be directly attached to the proximal tibia during surgery, and the osteotomy operation can be started immediately according to the preoperative osteotomy plan, simplifying the surgical procedure.

[0017] 2. This invention utilizes a combination of two osteotomy guides, four oblique Kirschner wires, and a handle. The two osteotomy guides reduce the volume of each osteotomy section, eliminating the need to separate important soft tissue structures such as the pes anserinus, thus minimizing soft tissue damage and achieving a reliable bony apex. Furthermore, the first osteotomy guide indicates the position, angle, and depth of the osteotomy, while the second guide further assists in determining the correction angle and the calibrated force line, improving correction accuracy. This allows for a complete trapezoidal osteotomy, quickly determining the osteotomy location and avoiding the high radiation levels that could harm the surgeon's health. Additionally, the closer fit between the osteotomy guide and the proximal tibia demonstrates precision medicine and personalized treatment methods, possessing broader clinical application value.

[0018] 3. This utility model reduces the size of the osteotomy guide plate and allows for separate use according to the surgical incision, reducing soft tissue damage while obtaining a reliable bony lining. It reduces the volume of the osteotomy guide plate and makes it easy to obtain a reliable bony lining, while reducing important soft tissue damage, and accurately and quickly assisting in the implementation of tibial tuberosity osteotomy.
