More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to a system reconstructing a new ligament in a tunnel matching to the cruciate ligament removed due to rupture on the tibia and the femur. The system includes: an embedded member connecting a bar ligament which is inserted into the tunnel to apply an elastic force thereto and a wire applying a predetermined tension force to both ends of the ligament; a connection member attached with a washer and a button which is bound with the wire passing through the tunnel on the surface of the tibia and femur to maintain the tension force; and a fixing member coupling a tanned screw meshing with the ligament in the tunnel and a fixing screw restricting the washer on the tibia by using pressure. Accordingly, the present invention has a complex configuration including the connection member which is reliably attached to the bone surface while preventing the wire from being unwound and the fixing member pressing and restricting the bone by using a coupling force in order to maximize the completeness of the overall operation. 본 발명은 경골과 대퇴골 상에 파열로 제거된 십자인대와 일치하도록 관통한 터널에 새로운 인대로 재건하는 시스템에 관한 것으로 그 구성의 특징으로서, 상기 터널 상에 삽입되어 신축력을 부여하는 바형의 인대와, 상기 인대의 양단에 소정의 긴장력을 부여하는 와이어가 연결되는 매식재; 상기 경골과 대퇴골의 표면으로 터널을 통과한 와이어와 각각 엮음 되어 긴장력을 유지하는 버튼과 와셔가 부착되는 연결재; 및 상기 터널 상에 인대와 맞물려 결속하는 무두나사와, 상기 경골 상에 와셔를 압박으로 구속하는 고정나사가 각각 체결되는 고정재;를 포함하여 이루어진다. 이에 따라 본 발명은, 골 표면에 안정적으로 부착하면서도 와이어의 풀림을 방지하는 연결재와 함께 골과의 체결력으로 압박시켜 구속하는 고정재를 복합적으로 구성하여 전반적인 수술의 완성도를 극대화하는 효과가 있다.
