DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] It is to be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the characteristics of the embodiments may be combined with each other if there is no conflict. The present disclosure is described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments in detail.

[0026] As shown in FIG. 1, the sacral prosthesis of the embodiment includes a prosthesis main body and a plurality of screw-rod structures, wherein the prosthesis main body includes two first prosthesis bodies 11 and a second prosthesis body 12 connected between the two first prosthesis bodies 11; a first end of each of the first prosthesis bodies 11 is connected with the second prosthesis body 12; the two first prosthesis bodies 11 and the second prosthesis body 12 are of an integrally prototyped structure; a second end of each of the first prosthesis bodies 11 is extended along a direction far away from the second prosthesis body 12, and is contacted and matched with an ilium 1; a top of the second prosthesis body 12 is contacted and matched with a lumbar vertebral body 2; each of the screw-rod structures includes connecting seat 22 a rod body 23; the connecting seat 22 are connected with the prosthesis main body; and the rod body 23 are fixed on the connecting seat 22.

[0027] By applying the technical solution of the embodiment, the sacral prosthesis includes the prosthesis main body, the prosthesis main body includes the two first prosthesis bodies 11 and the second prosthesis body 12 connected between the two first prosthesis bodies 11, the first end of each of the first prosthesis bodies 11 is connected with the second prosthesis body 12, the second end of each of the first prosthesis bodies 11 is extended along the direction far away from the second prosthesis body 12 and is contacted and matched with the ilium 1, and the top of the second prosthesis body 12 is contacted and matched with the lumbar vertebral body 2. The prosthesis main body is formed into an inverted V-shaped structure, so the good mechanical property is obtained, and the internal force distribution of the structure is improved. Under the condition of bearing a relatively high stress and a relatively high shear force, the rigidity of the sacral prosthesis can be maintained, so that a bone is not damaged easily. Therefore, the above-mentioned structure solves the problem that the bone is easily damaged due to the unreliable supporting and the easy fatigue break of the screw-rod system in the related technology. And in addition, by applying the technical solutions of the embodiment, the screw-rod structures include the connecting seat 22 and the rod body 23, the connecting seat 22 are connected with the prosthesis main body, and the rod body 23 is fixed on the connecting seat 22. The above structure reinforces the fixing between the prosthesis main body and the lumbar vertebral body 2 and increases the stability of the lumbar vertebral body 2, thereby preventing the subsidence of a lumbar vertebra portion.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 3, in the embodiment, each of the screw-rod structures further includes connecting seat 21; the connecting seat 21 is connected with the lumbar vertebral body; the rod body 23 is fixed on the connecting seat 21; the connecting seat 21 includes: a connecting screw 211, one end of the connecting screw 211 being connected with the lumbar vertebral body 2, and the other end of the connecting screw 211 being provided with a spherical screw head 2111; and a rod body fixing portion 212 configured to fix the rod body 23, one end of the rod body fixing portion 212 being provided with a spherical hole matched with the spherical screw head 2111. With the above structure, the rod body fixing portion 212 can be rotatably arranged on the connecting screw 211. In this way, a doctor may adjust positions of the rod body 23 according to an actual demand, and thus, an installation position is more accurate, and an installation process is simpler.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 2, in the embodiment, the rod body fixing portion 212 includes a U-shaped support 2121 and a fixing cap 2122; and the rod body 23 is arranged between the U-shaped support 2121 and the fixing cap 2122 in a clamping manner. Specifically, an installation space is formed in U-shaped inner wall of the U-shaped support 2121, and the rod body 23 is inserted into the installation space. An upper part of the U-shaped inner wall of the U-shaped support 2121 is provided with an inner screw thread, and the fixing cap 2122 is provided with an outer screw thread matched with the inner screw thread of the U-shaped support 2121. When the rod body 23 is installed, it is necessary to first enable the rod body 23 to go through the installation space and then screw the fixing cap 2122 to the U-shaped support 2121. Therefore, the above structure is simple, and convenient to install.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 5, in the embodiment, each of the screw-rod structures further includes connecting seat 22; the connecting seat 22 is connected with the prosthesis main body; the connecting seat 22 includes: a connecting screw 221, one end of the connecting screw 221 being connected with the prosthesis main body, and the other end of the connecting screw 221 being provided with a spherical screw head 2211; and a rod body fixing portion 222 configured to fix the rod body 23, one end of the rod body fixing portion 222 being provided with a spherical hole matched with the spherical screw head 2211. With the above structure, the rod body fixing portion 222 can be rotatably arranged on the connecting screw 221. In this way, a doctor may adjust positions of the rod body 23 according to an actual demand, and thus, an installation position is more accurate, and an installation process is simpler.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 4, in the embodiment, the rod body fixing portion 222 includes a U-shaped support 2221 and a fixing cap 2222; and the rod body 23 is arranged between the U-shaped support 2221 and the fixing cap 2222 in a clamping manner. Specifically, an installation space is formed in U-shaped inner wall of the U-shaped support 2221, and the rod body 23 is inserted into the installation space. An upper part of the U-shaped inner wall of the U-shaped support 2221 is provided with an inner screw thread, and the fixing cap 2222 is provided with an outer screw thread matched with the inner screw thread of the U-shaped support 2221. When the rod body 23 is installed, it is necessary to first enable the rod body 23 to go through the installation space and then screw the fixing cap 2222 to the U-shaped support 2221. Therefore, the above structure is simple, and convenient to install.

[0032] In the embodiment, the prosthesis main body is of a hollow truss structure. On one hand, the truss structure can greatly reduce the weight of the prosthesis main body and improves the material utilization rate, and simultaneously further can guarantee the strength and the rigidity of the prosthesis main body. On the other hand, with the adoption of the above structure, the prosthesis main body is closer to an adjacent skeleton, so that the bony fusion effect is better. Because anatomic reconstruction after the pelvic tumor excision needs to satisfy the accurate and complex requirements, and even further needs to satisfy the disposable and tailor-made requirements, the prosthesis main body is prototyped by means of 3D printing in the embodiment. And the above process intrinsically has the characteristics of being accurate, being capable of manufacturing a complex part and being capable of personally customized.

[0033] It is to be noted that a Three-Dimensional (3D) printing rapid prototyping technology is a brand-new manufacturing technology based on a material stacking method, is different from the traditional removed material processing technology, and is also referred to as Additive Manufacturing (AM). The 3D printing technology is to stack layers of a material into an entity via a rapid prototyping machine by employing 3D CAD data. It is named because though different types of rapid prototyping systems have different prototyping principles and system characteristics depending on different prototyping materials used, their basic principles are the same and are to manufacture in layers and overlap one by one, just like a 3D printer. With the rapid development of cutting-edge technologies such as manufacturing technology, digital modeling technology, numerical control technology, information technology, material science technology, chemical and biological technologies as well as the multidisciplinary close cooperation, the development of the 3D printing technology has become one of the most popular new technologies at present. The 3D printing will have a broad application prospect in the orthopedics field in future because its characteristics meet special requirements of the orthopedics. On one hand, bone tissues are a typical example of a complex structure, and it is very hard for the existing bionic technology to copy their special 3D forms and physiological functions. However, the 3D printing is just suitable for the rapid manufacturing of the complex structure and can obtain an approximately ideal bone repair material. And on the other hand, human bodies have a highly individual specificity, the traditional medical products produced in large scale and in batches cannot meet the personalized requirement and the former personalized and customized products produced by means of a manufacturing process such as mould have a high cost and a long period. Following the widespread application of a digital imaging technology in the medical field, the skeleton is an organ easiest to obtain an accurate digital image; and by combining with the skeleton and the 3D printing, the personalized medical products may be produced accurately and rapidly at a low cost. Therefore, by virtue of the 3D printing technology, an implant product with any form and an ideal biomechanical strength can be casted in a short time, making the development of personalized and customized bone implant products become true.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 1, in the embodiment, a plurality of first screw holes 111 are formed in each of the first prosthesis bodies 11; each of the first screw holes 111 is conical hole; a plurality of first screw seats are respectively arranged in the first screw holes 111; and each of the first screw seats is provided with a spherical inner surface. When the doctor needs to fix the prosthesis main body onto the ilium 1 via screws, the screws are respectively penetrated into the first screw holes 111 first. Since each of the first screw holes 111 is conical hole, head portion of each of the screws is spherical head and each of the first screw seats is provided with the spherical inner surface matched with the spherical head, the screws can be rotated in a certain range, and the doctor may choose nailing directions of the screws in terms of a practical condition. With the above structure, the doctor can choose screw fixing positions according to the practical condition, so that the fixing effect between the prosthesis main body and the ilium 1 is better. It is to be noted that dotted lines in FIG. 1 are the nailing directions of the screws. Likewise, a second screw hole 121 is formed in the second prosthesis body 12, the second screw hole 121 is a conical hole, a second screw seat is arranged in the second screw hole 121 and the second screw seat is provided with a spherical inner surface. With the above structure, the doctor can choose a screw fixing position according to the practical condition, so that the fixing effect between the prosthesis main body and the lumbar vertebral body 2 is better.

[0035] In the embodiment, the second end of each of the first prosthesis bodies 11 is provided with a first porous structure (not shown in Figure). The above structure can rapidly promote the generation of bone cells and is easily integrated with the bone (ilium), thereby achieving the medium-long term fixing effect. Compared with the traditional operation mode, it has the characteristics of high strength, high stability and strong bone integration capability.

[0036] In the embodiment, the top of the second prosthesis body 12 is provided with a second porous structure (not shown in Figure). The above structure can rapidly promote the generation of bone cells and is easily integrated with the bone (lumbar vertebral body), thereby achieving the medium-long term fixing effect. Compared with the traditional operation mode, it has the characteristics of high strength, high stability and strong bone integration capability.

[0037] In the embodiment, the second end of each of the first prosthesis bodies 11 is provided with a first needlelike bump (not shown in Figure). The needlelike bump has the effects of cutting and anchoring, so that the ilium is fixed with the second ends of the first prosthesis bodies 11 together.

[0038] In the embodiment, the top of the second prosthesis body 12 is provided with a second needlelike bump (not shown in Figure). The needlelike bump has the effects of cutting and anchoring, so that the lumbar vertebral body is fixed with the top of the second prosthesis body 12 together.

[0039] In the embodiment, a surface, facing toward a pelvic cavity, of the prosthesis main body is a smooth surface (not shown in Figure). The above structure can reduce a bruise of the sacral prosthesis to soft tissues such as intestinal tract in the pelvic cavity, thereby taking a certain protective effect to the soft tissues such as intestinal tract in the pelvic cavity of the patient.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 6, in the embodiment, anti-dropping mechanism 30 is arranged on the prosthesis main body; the anti-dropping mechanism 30 is arranged between the prosthesis main body and the connecting seat 22 in a clamping manner; and the anti-dropping mechanism 30 includes a plurality of first anti-dropping tentacles 31 matched with the screws accommodated in the screw holes 111. When the connecting seat 22 is screwed tightly in use, the first anti-dropping tentacles 31 are propped against the screws accommodated in the screw holes 111. The tighter the connecting screw 221 of the connecting seat 22 is, the greater a force that the first anti-dropping tentacles 31 are propped against the screws is. Therefore, the above structure can prevent the screws from dropping out from the screw holes 111. In addition, it is common that the connecting screw 221 screwed to the bone is loosed in the related technology, so the anti-dropping mechanism 30 further can provide a pretightening force for the connecting seat 22 so as to prevent the looseness of the connecting seat 22.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 6, in the embodiment, the anti-dropping mechanism 30 further includes an anti-dropping main body 32; the anti-dropping main body 32 is arranged between the prosthesis main body and the connecting seat 22 in a clamping manner; the anti-dropping mechanism 30 further includes a second anti-dropping tentacle 33; the first anti-dropping tentacles 31 and the second anti-dropping tentacle 33 are connected with the anti-dropping main body 32 and are extended outward; and a limiting sleeve 34 matched with the rod body 23 is arranged on the second anti-dropping tentacle 33. Preferably, multiple first anti-dropping tentacle 31 matched with the screw hole 111 are provided. Because the first anti-dropping tentacles 31 are extended outward to the screw holes 111, and the anti-dropping main body 32 is arranged between the prosthesis main body and the connecting seat 22 in a clamping manner, the anti-dropping mechanism 30 is limited and cannot be rotated. And the limiting sleeve 34 is arranged on the second anti-dropping tentacle 33 and the limiting sleeve 34 is matched with the rod body 23, so the rod body 23 is also limited and cannot be rotated. Therefore, the above structure prevents the rotation of the rod body 23, thereby increasing the stability of the system.

[0042] Preferably, the anti-dropping mechanism 30 is leaf springs; a tail end of the second anti-dropping tentacle 33 of the leaf spring is tilted upward; and the a limiting sleeve 34 is arranged at the tail end of the second anti-dropping tentacle 33.

[0043] The above description is only preferred embodiments of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure. Persons in the art can make various modifications and changes of the present disclosure. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present disclosure shall all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
