DISPOSITIF DE FIXATION ORIENTABLE DE TIGES
D'OSTEOSYNTHESE RACHIDIENNE
La présente invention a trait à une instrumentation rachidienne orientable pour fixation pédiculaire et vise à permettre d'adapter et de rétablir les courbures physiologiques du rachis.ADJUSTABLE ROD FIXING DEVICE
RACHIDIAN OSTEOSYNTHESIS
The present invention relates to an adjustable spinal instrumentation for pedicle fixation and aims to allow adaptation and restoration of the physiological curvatures of the spine.
Habituellement on implante des vis pédiculaires réunies par des tiges ou des plaques, la vis étant dans tous les cas perpendiculaire à la tige ou à la plaque. Usually, pedicle screws joined by rods or plates are implanted, the screw being in all cases perpendicular to the rod or to the plate.
L'invention vise à remédier à cet inconvénient et à proposer un dispositif de fixation des tiges permettant une orientation de celles-ci vis à vis de l'axe des vis pédiculaires. The invention aims to remedy this drawback and to propose a device for fixing the rods allowing them to be oriented with respect to the axis of the pedicle screws.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de fixation de tiges d'ostéosynthèse rachidienne sur des vis pédiculaires du type comprenant une tête en forme de diapason définissant deux branches recevant entre elles une tige à fixer, laquelle est bloquée dans son logement par une vis de serrage, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte, en outre, enfilée sur la tige et interposée entre la vis de serrage et le fond dudit logement, une bague fendue dont les faces externes opposées dirigées vers ladite vis de serrage et ledit fond sont convexes et reçues dans des surfaces concaves complémentaires ménagées sur l'extrémité de la vis de serrage et le fond du logement de réception de la tige, ladite bague autorisant avant serrage de la vis un certain débattement angulaire de la tige par rapport à l'axe de la vis. To this end, the subject of the invention is a device for fixing spinal osteosynthesis rods to pedicle screws of the type comprising a head in the form of a tuning fork defining two branches receiving between them a rod to be fixed, which is locked in its housing by a clamping screw, characterized in that it further comprises, threaded on the rod and interposed between the clamping screw and the bottom of said housing, a split ring whose opposite external faces directed towards said clamping screw and said bottom are convex and received in complementary concave surfaces formed on the end of the clamping screw and the bottom of the housing for receiving the rod, said ring authorizing before tightening of the screw a certain angular movement of the rod relative to the axis of the screw.
Un tel dispositif permet d'ajuster l'angle formé par la tige avec l'axe de la vis pédiculaire, en particulier dans le plan sagittal, et de bloquer la tige dans la position désirée grâce à la bague fendue qui se déforme et immobilise la tige sous la pression de la vis de serrage. Such a device makes it possible to adjust the angle formed by the rod with the axis of the pedicle screw, in particular in the sagittal plane, and to block the rod in the desired position thanks to the split ring which deforms and immobilizes the rod under the pressure of the clamping screw.

La figure 1 représente en 1 une vis pédiculaire de conception connue. Elle comporte une vis conique 2, une pointe ogivale 3, une tête cylindrique 4 percée de part en part et en forme de diapason. Plus précisément la tête 4 comporte deux branches paralléles en regard 4a,4b définissant entre elles une échancrure ou logement 5 d'axe général perpendiculaire à l'axe de la vis 2, susceptible de recevoir une tige ou élément de solidarisation 6 de forme générale cylindrique. Une telle structure est bien connue et est décrite par exemple dans le document GB-2.173.104. Figure 1 shows in 1 a pedicle screw of known design. It comprises a conical screw 2, an ogival point 3, a cylindrical head 4 pierced right through and in the form of a tuning fork. More precisely, the head 4 comprises two parallel facing branches 4a, 4b defining between them a notch or recess 5 of general axis perpendicular to the axis of the screw 2, capable of receiving a rod or fastening element 6 of generally cylindrical shape . Such a structure is well known and is described for example in document GB-2,173,104.
Les faces internes en regard des branches 4a,4b sont cylindriques et taraudées de façon à recevoir une vis de serrage 7 de blocage de la tige 6 dans son logement 5 à la manière du dispositif de blocage à vis décrit dans EP0.010.527. The internal faces opposite the branches 4a, 4b are cylindrical and tapped so as to receive a clamping screw 7 for blocking the rod 6 in its housing 5 in the manner of the screw blocking device described in EP0.010.527.
La tête 4 reçoit un capuchon 8 coiffant les extrémités supérieures des branches 4a,4b. The head 4 receives a cap 8 covering the upper ends of the branches 4a, 4b.
Conformément à l'invention, le blocage de la tige 6 est assuré par l'intermédiaire d'une bague fendue 9 pouvant coulisser librement sur la tige 6, reçue dans le logement 5 et serrée par la vis de serrage 7. In accordance with the invention, the blocking of the rod 6 is ensured by means of a split ring 9 which can slide freely on the rod 6, received in the housing 5 and tightened by the clamping screw 7.
La bague 9, l'extrémité de la vis de serrage 7 et la partie du logement 5 en contact avec la bague 9 sont conformées de manière particulière. The ring 9, the end of the clamping screw 7 and the part of the housing 5 in contact with the ring 9 are shaped in a particular way.
Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, la bague 9 comporte (figure 4) une surface externe 10 convexe sphérique coopérant, d'une part, avec une surface concave sphérique 11 ménagée (figure 6) à l'extrémité de la partie conique de la vis de serrage 7 et, d'autre part, avec une surface concave sphérique 12 ménagée (figure 3) dans le fond du logement 5 de réception entre les branches 4a,4b de la tige 6. In the embodiment shown, the ring 9 comprises (FIG. 4) a spherical convex external surface 10 cooperating, on the one hand, with a spherical concave surface 11 (FIG. 6) at the end of the conical part of the screw. clamping 7 and, on the other hand, with a spherical concave surface 12 formed (FIG. 3) in the bottom of the housing 5 for receiving between the branches 4a, 4b of the rod 6.
La bague 9 est agencée de façon que son plan soit sensiblement perpendiculaire (figure 2) au plan sagittal de la vis 1, lequel est défini par l'axe 13 de la vis et l'axe général du logement 5 recevant la tige 6. The ring 9 is arranged so that its plane is substantially perpendicular (FIG. 2) to the sagittal plane of the screw 1, which is defined by the axis 13 of the screw and the general axis of the housing 5 receiving the rod 6.
La bague 9 est munie d'une fente droite 14 (figures 4 et 5) et présente une face interne cylindrique très légèrement supérieure au diamètre de la tige 6. The ring 9 is provided with a straight slot 14 (FIGS. 4 and 5) and has a cylindrical internal face very slightly greater than the diameter of the rod 6.
La tige 6 sur laquelle est enfilée une bague 9 est insérée dans le logement 5 de la vis pédiculaire 1, après mise en place de cette dernière dans la partie osseuse appropriée. La bague 9 est engagée dans le logement 5,12 comme représenté en figure 2, puis la vis de serrage 7 est vissée dans l'espace entre les branches 4a,4b. Avant le serrage de la bague 9, le capuchon 8 est mis en place en étant simplement enfilé à cheval sur les deux branches 4a,4b, puis la tige 6 est convenablement orientée dans ledit plan sagittal (figure 2) et bloquée avec l'orientation désirée par compression de la bague fendue 9 par la vis de serrage 7. Le débattement angulaire de la tige 6 est par exemple de 150 autour de la position perpendiculaire à l'axe 13 de la vis 1 comme illustré par la figure 2. The rod 6 on which a ring 9 is threaded is inserted into the housing 5 of the pedicle screw 1, after placement of the latter in the appropriate bone part. The ring 9 is engaged in the housing 5.12 as shown in Figure 2, then the clamping screw 7 is screwed into the space between the branches 4a, 4b. Before tightening the ring 9, the cap 8 is put in place by simply being threaded astride the two branches 4a, 4b, then the rod 6 is suitably oriented in said sagittal plane (Figure 2) and locked with the orientation desired by compression of the split ring 9 by the clamping screw 7. The angular movement of the rod 6 is for example 150 around the position perpendicular to the axis 13 of the screw 1 as illustrated in FIG. 2.
Au cours de la modification de l'orientation de la tige 6, la bague 9 glisse sur les surfaces sphériques 11,12 entre lesquelles elle est emprisonnée. During the modification of the orientation of the rod 6, the ring 9 slides on the spherical surfaces 11, 12 between which it is trapped.
Pour permettre le libre débattement angulaire de la tige 6 le fond du logement 5 au droit des deux entrées opposées est légèrement évidé en 15 (figures 2 et 3), la partie tronconique subsistante 16 de la pointe de la vis de serrage 7 (figure 6) assurant le libre débattement de la tige du côté vis de serrage. To allow free angular movement of the rod 6 the bottom of the housing 5 to the right of the two opposite inlets is slightly hollowed out at 15 (Figures 2 and 3), the remaining frustoconical part 16 of the tip of the clamping screw 7 (Figure 6 ) ensuring free movement of the rod on the clamping screw side.
Le capuchon 8 comporte (figure 2) deux échancrures opposées 17 pour le libre débattement de la tige 6 et un perçage central 18 pour le passage d'une clé, par exemple à six pans, de serrage de la vis de serrage 7 par l'intermédiaire d'une empreinte à six pans creuse 19 ménagée à la manière connue dans la face supérieure de ladite vis 7. The cap 8 comprises (FIG. 2) two opposite indentations 17 for the free movement of the rod 6 and a central bore 18 for the passage of a key, for example a hexagon, for tightening the tightening screw 7 by the through a hollow hexagonal imprint 19 made in the known manner in the upper face of said screw 7.
Le rôle du capuchon est essentiellement d'empêcher l'écartement des deux branches 4a,4b lors du serrage de la vis de serrage. Le capuchon 8 peut être supprimé si le matériau de la vis 1 ou le dimensionnement des branches 4a,4b, en particulier l'épaisseur, le permet. The role of the cap is essentially to prevent the separation of the two branches 4a, 4b when tightening the clamping screw. The cap 8 can be removed if the material of the screw 1 or the dimensioning of the branches 4a, 4b, in particular the thickness, allows it.
Le serrage à fond de la vis de serrage 7 provoque le blocage par la bague 9 de la tige 6 dans la position choisie, la fente 14 étant de préférence placée latéralement comme illustré par la figure 2. Tightening the clamping screw 7 as far as possible causes the rod 6 to be blocked by the rod 6 in the chosen position, the slot 14 preferably being placed laterally as illustrated in FIG. 2.
La tige est ainsi parfaitement bloquée à la fois en orientation et en rotation autour de son axe. The rod is thus perfectly locked both in orientation and in rotation about its axis.
La tige 6 est par exemple un élément de solidarisation lisse muni à ses deux extrémités a'une empreinte 20 du type à six pans creux (figure 7) ou bien un élément constitué de torons cylindriques souples tressés. The rod 6 is for example a smooth fastening element provided at its two ends with an imprint 20 of the hexagon socket type (FIG. 7) or else an element consisting of flexible braided cylindrical strands.
Enfin, l'invention n'est évidemment pas limitée au mode de réalisation représenté et décrit ci-dessus mais en couvre au contraire toutes les variantes notamment en ce qui concerne la forme et l'agencement des surfaces convexes et concaves respectivement de la bague 9 et des surfaces il et 12 entre lesquelles elle est serrée et en ce qui concerne la vis de serrage 7 qui peut être vissée dans les branches en regard 4a,4b ou dans une pièce rapportée sur la tête 4 de la vis. De même les formes et dimensions de la bague 9 et de la fente 14 peuvent également varier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention dans la mesure où la fente joue le même rôle de coincement élastique de la bague par écrasement sur la tige à bloquer. Finally, the invention is obviously not limited to the embodiment shown and described above, but on the contrary covers all variants thereof, in particular as regards the shape and arrangement of the convex and concave surfaces of the ring 9, respectively. and surfaces 11 and 12 between which it is clamped and as regards the clamping screw 7 which can be screwed into the facing branches 4a, 4b or in an insert on the head 4 of the screw. Likewise the shapes and dimensions of the ring 9 and of the slot 14 can also vary without departing from the scope of the invention insofar as the slot plays the same role of elastic wedging of the ring by crushing on the rod to be blocked.
