Background
The sacrum and surrounding sacroiliac joint are the more common sites of involvement in bone and soft tissue tumors, with the sacral tumors most common with metastasis and bone giant cell tumors, followed by neurogenic tumors and chordoma. For malignant tumors around the sacroiliac joint, extensive resection or marginal resection is the most important principle for reducing the recurrence rate of diseases, and invasive tumor or metastatic cancer and the like are treated by thorough curettage operation as surgical treatment principles. However, the whole sacroiliac joint is cut off or scraped, the damage of the integrity of the posterior ring of the pelvis is inevitably caused, the weight of the trunk is transmitted when the pelvis bearing bow stands or sits, the stability of the pelvis ring is further affected, serious limb dysfunction and even disability of a patient with sacrum tumor are caused, and the patient with sacrum tumor is involved in various crowds, and relates to children, young and aged patients, so that great mental and economic burden is brought to families and society of the patient with sacrum tumor.
In addition to the sacral tumors, another important disease affecting pelvic stability is pelvic fractures and sacroiliac joint separation caused by high energy violence. More common high energy violent injuries include traffic injuries, earthquake injuries, mine accidents and the like. Pelvic fractures caused by high-energy traffic injuries, particularly the condition of sacroiliac joint separation or pubic symphysis separation, are important factors for killing and disabling pelvic fractures, and pelvic fractures caused by high-energy violence often cause hemorrhagic shock of patients, and unstable pelvic rings form open book or close book-like injuries, so that changes of pelvic volumes are brought, and the death risk of the hemorrhagic shock is aggravated due to changes of pelvic pressure. Earthquake injury is another common important cause of high-energy injury of pelvis, besides traffic injury, and even if a patient is rescued, the life quality of the patient is often affected by limb dysfunction or serious pain caused by instability of sacroiliac joints in future life. However, there is no internal fixation device in the prior art specifically directed to restoring stability to the posterior pelvic girdle and lumbar ilium region of a patient.

Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present utility model will be made more apparent and fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all embodiments of the utility model are shown. All other embodiments, which can be made by a person skilled in the art without any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the present utility model, based on the embodiments of the present utility model.
Referring to fig. 1, the present utility model provides an implantable lumbosacral ilium joint fixing screw, which comprises:
Screw body design As shown in figures 2-3, the screw body 1 is made of high-strength titanium alloy material to ensure biocompatibility and enough mechanical strength. The front end of the screw body 1 is provided with a first external thread 11 for forming a threaded connection with bone tissue during implantation, enhancing the fixation effect. At the outer end of the first external thread 11, three self-tapping grooves 12 are provided circumferentially, which are designed to cut bone tissue during the screwing process, facilitating the smooth passage of the screw through the sacroiliac joint and into the sacrum. The screw body 1 is provided at its middle portion with a bone grafting chamber 13 penetrating the inside thereof for filling autologous bone or allogenic bone material to promote bone healing.
Design of the joint locking member as shown in fig. 4, the joint locking member 2 is made of titanium alloy material, specifically a titanium alloy anchor bolt structure. The locking member includes a base 21, a support bar 22, and a locking end. The base 21 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the bone grafting chamber 13, and the supporting rods 22 are symmetrically arranged on the base 21 and extend upwards. The locking end consists of an arcuate locking end 23 attached to the top of the support bar 22 and a further upwardly extending locking tip 24. The design ensures that after the screw body 1 passes through the sacroiliac joint, the two wings of the locking end can be respectively spread and locked towards the direction of the ilium and the cortical wall of the sacrum, so as to realize the compression fixation of the joint.
The auxiliary structure is that the rear end of the screw body 1 is provided with a second external thread 14 which is in threaded connection with the quincuncial bolt 3. The design of the plum-blossom-shaped bolt is convenient for a doctor to hold and rotate the screw in the operation process, so that the screw can be accurately and quickly implanted into a target position. In addition, the surface of the screw body 1 is coated with a layer of hydroxyapatite to enhance its bioactivity and osseointegration ability.
The screw body 1 is made of medical grade titanium alloy material (such as Ti-6Al-4V ELI), which has good biocompatibility, corrosion resistance and enough mechanical strength, and is suitable for long-term implantation into human body. The first external thread 11 is designed in the form of a full thread with a sufficient depth to ensure a tight connection with bone tissue. The thread form angle, pitch and depth of the thread are precisely calculated to balance the cutting force during screwing and the stability after fixing. In addition, the threaded surface is subjected to a special treatment (such as sand blasting) to increase the bone tissue attachment area. The number, distribution and depth of the self-tapping flutes 12 are optimized to ensure uniform and efficient cutting of bone tissue during the screwing process. The self-tapping grooves also have a certain guiding function and help the screw to smoothly pass through the complex structure of the sacroiliac joint. The size and shape of the bone graft cavity 13 may be adjusted according to the requirements for filling bone material. The inner wall of the chamber is smooth to reduce frictional damage to the filler material. The rear end of the screw body 1 is provided with a second external thread 14 which is in close fit with the quincuncial bolt 3 (fig. 5). To increase rotational stability, the profile angle of the second external thread 14 may be suitably reduced and the pitch increased.
The base 21 is seamlessly connected with the rear end of the bone grafting chamber 13 through precision machining, and stability and reliability of the locking piece in the implantation process are ensured. The base and the cavity can be welded, screwed or buckled. The support rod 22 is designed with a structure that is sufficiently rigid and flexible to withstand bending and torsional forces during implantation. The number, length and cross-sectional shape of the support rods 22 can be adjusted as desired. The arcuate locking end 23 is designed to have an arcuate configuration that matches the shape of the cortical wall of the ilium and sacrum to increase contact area and locking effect. The locking tip 24 is designed to be sharp and of a certain stiffness so as to penetrate the cortical bone and form a stable locking point during implantation. Meanwhile, the locking end surface may be covered with a bioactive coating (e.g., hydroxyapatite) to promote osseointegration.
