Description

Orthopedic implant for controlling bone growth and medical orthopedic system

Technical Field

The present invention relates to medical orthopedic systems, and more particularly to medical orthopedic systems for controlling bone growth.

Background

Knee joint angulation deformity (such as genu varum, genu valgus, mount disease and the like) is common lower limb abnormal development of children and teenagers, can be congenital or acquired, and is a problem which is relatively troublesome in the field of children orthopedics. Knee angulation deformities can result in pathological mechanical loads, possibly leading to early knee osteoarthritis. Thus, depending on the degree of deformity, prophylactic surgical treatment may be required. Temporary hemiepiphyseal block surgery using endophytes is an effective treatment for deformity correction. By adopting the method, a commonly used treatment tool is a steel plate in the shape of a Chinese character 'ba', which is based on the principle of a tension belt, namely, the steel plate is internally fixed at the implantation side to generate pressure and simultaneously generates tension at the opposite side to control the bone growth speed of different sides. However, the incidence rate of complications of the currently used steel plate shaped like the Chinese character 'ba' is relatively high, the complications do not conform to the specific protruding anatomical contour around the epiphyseal plate, and uneven stress distribution is easy to occur, so that the steel plate screw is broken. In addition, in the clinical application process, the time that the currently used splayed steel plate plays a growth retardation role to a certain extent when the screw is opened is mainly concentrated in the second half of the implantation correction, namely the splayed steel plate needs to be subjected to the traction of bone growth after being implanted to enable the two sides of the screw to be offset with the screw implantation opening on the splayed steel plate, the correction efficiency at the initial implantation stage is low, and the epiphysis retardation effect cannot be played; meanwhile, volcano-like deformity of the tibial plateau can occur during the treatment of proximal tibial hemiepiphyseal block.

Research shows that the main reasons of the problems are that the steel plate with the shape like the Chinese character 'ba' has late onset time and low orthopedic efficiency, and when the steel plate is applied to the proximal end of the tibia, the steel plate is left for a long time to cause the change of an anatomical structure. Accordingly, it is desirable to provide an orthopedic system and orthopedic implant therefor that reduce or eliminate the disadvantages of the prior art.
