发明名称 INTERVERTEBRAL DISC ENDOPROSTHESIS HAVING CYLINDRICAL ARTICULATION SURFACES THAT ARE CURVED IN A TRANSVERSALLY ARCHED MANNER FOR THE LUMBAR VERTEBRAL COLUMN AND CERVICAL VERTEBRAL COLUMN
摘要 <p>An intervertebral disc prosthesis for the total replacement of a intervertebral disc within the lumbar and cervical spine is disclosed. The intervertebral disc prosthesis comprises articulating sliding partners, wherein the upper sliding partner has means for a firm assembly to an upper vertebral body and the lower sliding partner has means for a firm assembly to a lower vertebral body and at least one sliding surface that is between two sliding partners. Functional two- and three part designs are planned and both prostheses have in common, that only a dorsoventral- and rotation movement is possible as a result of laterolaterally aimed, transversally arched, ventrally curved cylindrical convexity(ies) and corresponding concavity(ies), however without an inclination of the sliding partners in a lateral direction. In a further design, the cylindrical articulation surfaces have no curvature, enabling a motion of the sliding partners in only a ventrodorsal direction. According to the invention, the intervertebral disc prostheses are suited for implantation from lateral and ventrolateral, particularly in revision surgeries.</p>
