4 results about "Laminoplasty" patented technology

Laminoplasty is an orthopaedic/neurosurgical surgical procedure for treating spinal stenosis by relieving pressure on the spinal cord. The main purpose of this procedure is to provide relief to patients who may suffer from symptoms of numbness, pain, or weakness in arm movement. The procedure involves cutting the lamina on both sides of the affected vertebrae (cutting through on one side and merely cutting a groove on the other) and then "swinging" the freed flap of bone open thus relieving the pressure on the spinal cord. The spinous process may be removed to allow the lamina bone flap to be swung open. The bone flap is then propped open using small wedges or pieces of bone such that the enlarged spinal canal will remain in place.

Expandable laminoplasty implant

An implantable laminoplasty device is provided that can be used in minimally invasive surgery. The device includes a main housing with an inner housing slidably receivable by an outer housing. A gear is disposed in the main housing and engageable with a gear rack of the inner housing to adjust the length of the main housing. The gear defines an aperture configured to accept a tool to translate rotational movement into linear motion. A lock is slidably disposed in the main housing sized and configured to fix the length of the main housing when the desired length is achieved by slidable translation of the inner housing in the outer housing. The device also includes a laminar shelf portion and a lateral mass connection portion defining bone screws and both being hingedly connected to the main housing.

Laminoplasty implants and methods of use

An implant is provided for connecting the vertebral arch plate with the epiphysis that has been separated from the lateral mass of the vertebra during the laminoplasty procedure. [Solution] The implant (10) has a first portion (20) configured to engage with the lateral mass (120). The first portion has a lateral opening (34) for receiving a fastener (36) for fixing it to the lateral mass. The implant has a second portion (60) configured to engage with the epiphysis (160). The second portion is connected to the first portion such that the second portion is rotatable relative to the first portion about a rotational axis. The second portion has a lateral opening for receiving a fastener. The implant is configured so that the first portion can be fixed to the lateral mass prior to the separation of the arch from the lateral mass.

Fusion cage selection method and device, fusion cage, storage medium and electronic equipment

ActiveCN121287375AImage analysisSurgeryVertebral vesselsVertebral lamina
The invention discloses a fusion cage selection method, a fusion cage, a device, a storage medium and electronic equipment. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a cervical vertebra medical image of a target object; determining a first vertebral foramen area of the cervical vertebra of the target object before lesion and a second vertebral foramen area of the target object after lesion based on the cervical vertebra medical image; determining a target opening area of the vertebral hole based on the first vertebral hole area and the second vertebral hole area; fusion cage parameters are determined based on the target distraction area, a target fusion cage is determined from the multiple fusion cages based on the fusion cage parameters, and the target fusion cage is used for being supported between two vertebral plates of the cervical vertebra of the target object so as to expand the vertebral foramen area. By means of the fusion cage selection method and device, the problem that the accuracy of fusion cage selection is low due to the fact that the fusion cage needing to be used in posterior cervical single-side opening canalis vertebralis enlargement is selected according to artificial experience in the related technology is solved.

Method for selecting a fusion device, fusion device, apparatus, storage medium and electronic device

ActiveCN121287375BImage analysisSurgeryVertebral vesselsVertebral lamina
The application discloses a selection method of a fusion device, the fusion device, a device, a storage medium and an electronic device. It relates to the field of medical instruments. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a cervical vertebra medical image of a target object; determining a first foramen area of the cervical vertebra of the target object before a lesion and a second foramen area of the target object after the lesion based on the cervical vertebra medical image; determining a target distraction area of the foramen based on the first foramen area and the second foramen area; determining a fusion device parameter based on the target distraction area, and determining a target fusion device from a plurality of fusion devices based on the fusion device parameter, wherein the target fusion device is used to support between two vertebral plates of the cervical vertebra of the target object to expand the foramen area. Through the application, the problem that the related art relies on manual experience to select the fusion device required in unilateral open-door laminoplasty of the cervical vertebra is solved, and the accuracy of selecting the fusion device is low.
