Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of laminectomy support technology, and in particular to a support connection structure for laminectomy. Background Technology
[0002] Cervical spondylosis is a spinal cord disease caused by degenerative changes in the anatomical structure of the cervical spine. It is typically accompanied by pathological changes such as narrowing of the intervertebral discs, osteophyte formation, hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum, and loss of physiological curvature, leading to spinal cord compression or vertebral instability. In recent years, its incidence has been rising continuously and showing a trend towards affecting younger people, seriously impacting their quality of life. Patients with significant clinical symptoms or neurological deficits usually require surgical intervention. The main surgical approaches are anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior approaches.
[0003] Currently, the most commonly used posterior approach in clinical practice is single-door laminoplasty, which involves flipping and fixing the lamina from the more symptomatic side towards the less symptomatic side to relieve decompression. Existing micro-titanium plates are commonly used to form a complete lamina structure with the cut lamina. However, these plates do not consider the opening angle, often requiring manual bending and adjustment using tools like bending forceps. This not only prolongs the operation time but also risks damaging the plate's structure during repeated bending and adjustment, leading to changes in stress or stress concentration. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a support connection structure for laminectomy. This design allows for the selection of an appropriate opening angle based on the intraoperative situation, shortening the operation time and effectively avoiding stress changes or stress concentration caused by repeated adjustments to the opening angle.
[0005] The hinge structure design allows for adjustment of the opening angle according to the intraoperative situation, effectively avoiding stress changes caused by repeated adjustments and shortening the operation time.
[0006] This utility model provides a support connection structure for laminectomy, including a first fixing part, a connecting plate and a second fixing part. The first fixing part includes an upper clamping plate and a lower clamping plate that cooperate with each other. The upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate are both fixedly connected to the connecting plate. The second fixing part is hinged to the connecting plate. The upper clamping plate and the second fixing part are each provided with at least two screw holes spaced apart.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper clamping plate and the connecting plate are integrally formed, and the lower clamping plate is welded to the connecting plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the length of the upper clamping plate is greater than the length of the lower clamping plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the second fixing part includes a hinge plate, the hinge plate having screw holes spaced apart, the end of the hinge plate having a first hinge ring, the connecting plate having a second hinge ring that mates with the first hinge ring, and the first hinge ring and the second hinge ring being connected by a hinge shaft.
[0010] Furthermore, the sum of the lengths of the first hinge ring and the second hinge ring is the same as the width of the connecting plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the hinge plate is provided with three screw holes, which are arranged in a triangular pattern.
[0012] Furthermore, the upper clamping plate, the lower clamping plate, and the second fixing part are all provided with anti-slip textures.
[0013] Furthermore, the upper clamping plate and the connecting plate are integrally formed, and the lower clamping plate is adjustablely mounted on the connecting plate.
[0014] Furthermore, the connecting plate has two staggered waist-shaped holes, and the lower clamp plate has two connecting ears at one end near the connecting plate. The connecting ears have threaded holes, and the connecting ears are connected to the connecting plate by screws.
[0015] Furthermore, the connecting plate has an abutment portion at one end located at the second fixing portion.
[0016] The support connection structure designed in this technical solution uses an upper and lower clamping plate of the first fixing part to cooperate with each other, which can more stably fix it to the corresponding position of the vertebral lamina. Both the upper clamping plate and the second fixing part have at least two screw holes spaced apart, allowing for a secure connection to the vertebral lamina with screws, ensuring connection stability. Simultaneously, the hinged design of the second fixing part and the connecting plate allows for flexible adjustment of the opening angle, avoiding the cumbersome manual bending and adjustment required with traditional titanium plates. This significantly shortens surgical time, prevents damage to the structure from repeated bending, ensures uniform stress distribution, effectively reduces stress concentration, and greatly shortens surgical time.

[0025] Example 1
[0026] like Figure 1As shown, this utility model provides a support connection structure for a laminectomy, including a first fixing part, a connecting plate 3, and a second fixing part. The first fixing part includes an upper clamping plate 1 and a lower clamping plate 2 that cooperate with each other. The length of the upper clamping plate 1 is greater than the length of the lower clamping plate 2. The upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2 form a U-shaped structure, which cooperate to hold one end of the laminectomy. The upper clamping plate 1 and the connecting plate 3 are integrally formed, and the lower clamping plate 2 is welded to the connecting plate 3. In order to enable the structure to adapt to different angle connections, in this embodiment, the second fixing part and the connecting plate 3 are set as a hinged connection.
[0027] The upper clamping plate 1 and the second fixing part are each provided with at least two screw holes 6 spaced apart. The second fixing part includes a hinge plate 4, on which three screw holes 6 are spaced apart and arranged in a triangle to enhance the stability during connection. The end of the hinge plate 4 is provided with a first hinge ring 5, and the connecting plate 3 is provided with a second hinge ring that cooperates with the first hinge ring 5. The first hinge ring 5 and the second hinge ring are connected by a hinge shaft, and the sum of the lengths of the first hinge ring 5 and the second hinge ring is the same as the width of the connecting plate 3.
[0028] The connecting plate 3 has an abutment 7 at one end of the second fixing part, which is used to cooperate with the hinge plate 4. When the hinge plate 4 is fixed to the vertebral incision with screws, the abutment 7 abuts against the cross-section of the vertebral incision.
[0029] The first fixing part, the connecting plate 3, and the second fixing part are all made of titanium alloy.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] The technical features that distinguish this embodiment from Embodiment 1 are as follows: the upper clamping plate 1, the lower clamping plate 2, and the second fixing part are all provided with anti-slip textures. The anti-slip textures are used to increase the friction with the surface of the vertebral plate and prevent the titanium plate structure from sliding on the vertebral plate.
[0032] Example 3
[0033] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, since the thickness of the vertebral laminae varies among different individuals, in order to adapt the support connection structure to different users, the lower clamping plate 2 is adjustablely mounted on the connecting plate 3 in this embodiment. Specifically, the connecting plate 3 has two staggered waist-shaped holes 301, i.e., the two waist-shaped holes 301 are centrally symmetrically arranged. The lower clamping plate 2 has two connecting ears 201 near the end of the connecting plate 3, each with a threaded hole. The connecting ears 201 are connected to the connecting plate 3 at the waist-shaped holes 301 by screws. By setting the waist-shaped holes 301, the lower clamping plate 2 can be adjusted along the length of the connecting plate 3, thereby adjusting the distance between the upper clamping plate 1 and the lower clamping plate 2. The staggered arrangement of the connecting ears 201 ensures the stability of the lower clamping plate 2.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
