Detailed Description
In view of the above, the core of the present invention is to provide an intervertebral fusion cage to improve the void ratio and the bone fusion effect.
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the disclosure, the invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
As shown in figures 1-4, the invention discloses an intervertebral cage, which comprises a cage body, wherein the upper surface and the lower surface are communicated with each other to form a ring structure, and the upper surface and the lower surface are communicated with each other, namely the cage body is communicated with the lower surface from the upper surface to form a ring structure. The rear end 11 of the fusion cage body is provided with an instrument hole 14, the front end 12 of the fusion cage body is an arc-shaped head, and the head part of the arc-shaped head and two opposite side surfaces of the fusion cage body are respectively provided with a plurality of through holes communicated with the outside. The cage body is arranged to be of a pore structure in the application, and the head part 12 at the front end of the cage body is also arranged to be of a pore structure so as to increase the porosity, promote bone growth into the interbody cage and reduce the elastic modulus.
The upper surface and the lower surface of the cage body in this application are both planar and parallel, the upper surface and the lower surface are both provided with the projection 13, and the projection 13 is inclined to the rear end 11 by the front end 12 of the cage body. The upper surface and the lower surface of the interbody fusion cage body are both set to be flat, so that the interbody fusion cage can be prevented from generating bone subsidence when being placed into a body, the stress of the most fragile position of the vertebra is avoided, the interbody fusion cage is suitable for all types of vertebrae, meanwhile, the stability of the interbody fusion cage can be increased, and the lateral sliding is avoided. In addition, the protrusion 13 provided in the present application is inclined from the front end 12 of the fusion cage body to the rear end 11 of the fusion cage body to ensure that the fusion cage body is placed into the body without hindrance and to prevent horizontal slippage. The size and the spacing of the protrusions 13 can be set according to different requirements and are all within the protection range.
In a specific embodiment, the fusion cage body is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the protrusions 13 on the upper surface and the protrusions 13 on the lower surface are arranged axisymmetrically. The shape of the fusion cage body can be set according to needs by those skilled in the art, and the fusion cage body is set to be of a cuboid structure in the application, so that the intervertebral fusion cage can be prevented from generating bone subsidence when being placed into a human body. The arranged bulges are arranged in an axisymmetric manner, so that the balance of the fusion cage body can be ensured.
