Das erfindungsgemäße Implantat findet Anwendung in der Knochenchirurgie.The implant according to the invention is used in bone surgery.
Die bisher bekannten und anzuwendenden Behandlungsmethoden von Wirbelsäulenfrakturen bestehen in einer langdauernden Außenfeststellung mit Hilfe von Gipskorsetten, was zu Muskelstrophien und Dekubitalgeschwüren führt, welche eine Frührehabilitation unmöglich machen.The previously known and applicable treatment methods for spinal fractures consist in a long-term external determination with the help of plaster corsets, what leads to muscle strophy and decubitus ulcers, which requires early rehabilitation to make impossible.
Bekannt sind weiterhin Operationsmethoden, wie die innere Anastomose mittels Federn, die jedoch ebenfalls als Unterstützung die Außenfeststellung benötigt (Weiss M. Materialy XXII ZJazdu Naukowego Pol. Tow. Ortop. Traum. Poznan 1978, Seiten 217 - 221).Surgical methods such as the internal anastomosis are also known by means of springs, which, however, also require the external locking mechanism as support (Weiss M. Materialy XXII ZJazdu Naukowego Pol. Tow. Ortop. Traum. Poznan 1978, pp 217-221).
Eine innere Anastomose unter Verwendung von zwei Platten und auf Dornfortsätze aufgelegten Schrauben bietet große technische Schwierigkeiten und verlängert die Zeit des chirurgischen Eingriffs (Rogers W.A. Cord injury during reduction of thoracis and lumbar vertebral-body fracture and dislocatione. J. Bone and Joint Surg. 20:689, 1938).An internal anastomosis using two plates and on the spinous processes applied screws offers great technical difficulties and lengthens the Time of surgical intervention (Rogers W.A. Cord injury during reduction of thoracis and lumbar vertebral-body fracture and displacement. J. Bone and Joint Surg. 20: 689, 1938).
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die genannten Schwierigkeiten in der Therapie zu vermeiden und eine solche Implantatkonstruktion zu entwickeln, welche eine stabile innere Anastomose gewährleistet, die Dauer des chirurgischen Eingriffs verkürzt, die Außenfeststellungen beseitigt, eine schnelle Rehabilitation ermöglicht und Dekubitalgeschwürentstehung verhindert, welche die schwersten Komplikationen bei den Kranken bildet, die infolge des Einsatzes von Gipskorsetten gelähmt worden sind.The invention is based on the problem of the aforementioned difficulties to avoid in therapy and to develop such an implant design, which ensures a stable internal anastomosis, the duration of the surgical Shortened intervention, the external observations eliminated, a quick rehabilitation allows and decubitus ulcer formation prevents which the the most serious complications in the patient as a result of the use of Plaster of Paris corsets have been paralyzed.
