Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a trochlear prosthesis that has particular application in the veterinary field.
  • the trochlear prosthesis of the present invention is applied particularly at the femoral trochlea.
  • the present invention relates to a trochlear prosthesis that is used for the treatment of certain joint diseases in animals, such as dogs.
  • the present invention relates to a trochlear prosthesis susceptible to be used particularly, but not exclusively, for the treatment of dogs suffering from patellar luxation with patellofemoral arthrosis.
  • the present invention relates to an equipment susceptible to be used for the application of said trochlear prosthesis to a distal portion of the femur, at the knee joint.
  • patellar luxation in animals is a very common orthopedic pathological condition, often due to a genetic predisposition.
  • special reference will be made to patellar luxation in the dog; however, it is to be understood that this pathology may occur in other animals as well.
  • This pathology leads to degeneration of the cartilage present on the patellofemoral joint surfaces as well as to the development of patellofemoral arthrosis, resulting in lameness, pain at the knee joint, and progressive reduction of the dog's motor capacity.
  • Such surgery consists of replacing the altered bone portion with an artificial prosthesis, designed to simulate the functioning of one or more elements of the joint.
  • the altered bone portion may involve bone parts that make up the knee joint, such as the femoral trochlea.
  • reconstruction of the articular surface of the femoral trochlea can be achieved by using a trochlear prosthesis that is implanted at the femur by surgery.
  • the trochlear prosthesis is positioned on a distal part of the femur, at the knee joint, and is housed at the trochlear sulcus of the femur.
  • This prosthesis is shaped in such a way as to define an artificial trochlear sulcus, which replaces the damaged femoral trochlea.
  • Trochlear prostheses currently used require the removal of all the bone surfaces that are replaced by the prosthesis, particularly the trochlear sulcus, the portion located in the intercondylar notch, and a portion of the femoral condyles.
  • the trochlear prostheses currently employed require considerable removal of bone tissue, both in terms of the extent of the bone surfaces involved and the depth of bone resection.
  • bone resection is, in general, performed 'by eye,' without the use of reference equipment. This leads to poor precision in bone resection and, consequently, poorly accurate positioning of the trochlear prosthesis.
  • an object of the present invention is to overcome the drawbacks of prior art by providing a trochlear prosthesis whose shape allows for reduced removal of bone tissue.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide medical personnel with special equipment to perform the implantation of said trochlear prosthesis and to enable smooth and precise bone resection.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a trochlear prosthesis and an equipment for application thereof that will reduce the risk of any complications during surgery and the need for subsequent revisions by medical personnel.

  • the anterior face, facing the patella is made concave so as to reproduce the anatomical shape of the femoral trochlear sulcus, allowing it to accommodate the patient’s patella.
  • the trochlear extension is preferably made as a single piece with the main body.
  • This trochlear extension is located at the distal end of the main body and defines a prolongation of the concave anterior face of the main body.
  • the trochlear extension is, in addition, connected to the posterior face of the main body, so as to define a posterior face of the trochlear extension that is not coplanar with the posterior face of the main body.
  • the trochlear extension in turn has a curved, substantially concave anterior face.
  • the concave surface of the trochlear extension essentially reproduces the natural anatomical shape of the corresponding portion of the femur over which it is positioned at the time of implantation.
  • the trochlear extension extends away from the posterior face of the main body and is shaped in such a way as to cooperate with said distal portion of the femur.
  • the trochlear extension is associated with the main body in such a way as to define an obtuse angle with the posterior face of the main body.
