Abstract
A tool set for implanting a rod in a human spine in conjunction with bone screws. The tool set includes a pair of end guide tools that receive opposite ends of the rod in channels and under manipulation by a surgeon facilitate transport of the rod toward the bone screws attached to the guide tools. Intermediate guide tools having guiding pass through slots are utilized to guide intermediate locations along the rod toward associated bone screws. An attachment structure operably connects the guide tools to the bone screws. The guide tools each include a lower guide and advancement structure to allow a closure top with mating structure to be rotated and driven downward against the rod and to cooperate with similar structure in the bone screw to seat and lock the rod therein. A method utilizing the tool set allows a surgeon to percutaneously implant the rod in the patient.
Description
- This is a division of U.S. application for patent Ser. No. 10/789,149, filed Feb. 27, 2004, now U.S. Pat. No. ______.
- The present invention relates to apparatuses and methods for use in performing spinal surgery and, in particular, to tools and methods of using such tools, especially for percutaneously implanting a rod for spinal support and alignment using minimally invasive techniques.
- For many years, spinal osteosynthesis apparatuses have been utilized to correct spinal deformities, injuries or disease. In such procedures, elongate rods are surgically attached to vertebrae of the spine to provide support and/or to reposition certain vertebrae. Such rods are secured to vertebrae utilizing bone screws and other implants.
- Surgical techniques and bone screws have improved; however, in order to reduce the impact of such surgery on the patient, it has been desirable for such implants to be inserted percutaneously or with surgical techniques that are minimally invasive to the body of the patient. This presents a problem with implantation of rods that are elongate and have historically required a long incision and open wound in order to provide for the length of the rod and the space required for the surgeon's hands to manipulate the rod, implants and insertion tools used with the rod. Consequently, it has been desirable to develop apparatuses and techniques that allow for the insertion of bone screws, the insertion and reduction of a rod and the securing of the rod to the bone screws with significantly reduced invasion into the body of the patient and with minimal incision size in the skin over the operational site.
- A set of tools is provided for percutaneously implanting a spinal rod in a patient. The tools include a pair of end guide tools that have channels sized to receive opposite ends of such a rod and allow sliding of the rod along the channel so as to guide ends of the rod into opposed end bone screw-heads to which the end guide tools are attached. Intermediate guide tools are also attached to bone screw-heads between the end bone screws and are slotted to guide the rod to respective bone screws attached to the intermediate guide tools.
- The guide tools also include lower attachment structure to allow the guide tools to be easily and quickly secured to mating structure on a respective bone screw-head, and to be easily removed from the bone screw by manual rotation of a handle of the tools exterior of the patient, after which the guide tool is withdrawn from the patient. The intermediate guide tools have a snap-on and twist-off association with an associated intermediate bone screw and the end guide tools have a twist-on and twist-off association with respective end bone screws. In certain embodiments, other attachment structure may be used.
- Each of the guide tools also includes an internal first lower guide and advancement structure that functions in cooperation with an internal second guide and advancement structure within the bone screw head and also with external helical wound thread or locking flange form mating structure on a bone screw closure top for closing the head of the bone screw, so as to be able to load the closure top though a top-to-bottom passageway in the guide tool and rotate the closure top with a closure top installation tool. Beneath the surface of the skin, the closure top is partially surrounded by the guide tool as it is directed to the bone screw. Clockwise rotation of the closure top in the region of the lower guide and advancement structure engages the closure top therewith and produces mechanical advantage that causes the closure top to be driven against the rod as it advances thereby urging the rod into the head of a respective bone screw. The closure top is driven and advanced by rotation of the closure top by the closure top installation tool and transferred or passed from the first guide and advancement structure in the guide tool to the second guide and advancement structure in the bone screw without losing mechanical advantage and while continually applying downward pressure on the rod, so as to drive the closure top downward and against the rod and so as to bias the rod into the head of the bone screw where it is captured by the closure top and locked in position.
- Therefore, the objects of the present invention are: to provide a set of tools for implanting a spinal rod for support or alignment along a human spine with minimal surgical invasion of the patient; to provide such a set of tools including a pair of end tool guides for slidably guiding opposed ends of the rod toward end bone screws attached to the end guide tools; to provide such a set of tools including intermediate guide tools for each intermediate bone screw that guide the rod in slots therethrough to respective bone screws; to provide such a set of tools including rod pusher and closure top installation tools for assisting in securing the rod in the bone screws; to provide such a set of tools where the end guide tools include a longitudinal channel extending upwardly from near a bottom thereof to slidingly receive and guide ends of the rod toward associated end bone screws; to provide such a set of tools wherein the guide tools are easily attached to and disengaged from the bone screws; to provide such a set of tools wherein each guide tool includes a first guide and advancement structure near the bottom thereof that receives thread or locking flange mating structure on the closure top and advances the closure top upon rotation of the closure top to urge the rod downwardly; to provide such a set of tools wherein the guide tool first guide and advancement structure acts cooperatively with a second guide and advancement structure on the bone screw so as to transfer the closure top upon rotation thereof from the guide tool to the bone screw while continuously applying pressure to the rod and thereafter further advance the closure top to urge the rod into a seated position in the bone screw; to provide such a set of tools wherein the guide tools easily attach to and disengage from the bone screws by manual manipulation of the surgeon outside the patient's skin; to provide a method of implanting a rod into a patient with minimal surgical invasion of the patient; to provide such a method utilizing the previously described tools for percutaneous implantation of such a rod; to provide such a method wherein end guide tools are utilized to receive opposite ends of a rod and guide the rod ends in the guide tool channels through manipulation of the guide tools and use of rod pusher tools; to provide such a method wherein intermediate guide tools are utilized to guide intermediate locations along the rod to respective intermediate bone screws; to provide such a method wherein guide and advancement structure near the bottoms of the guide tools, on the bone screws and on the closure tops are utilized to pass the closure top under rotation and with driving force between the guide tools and the bone screws and to drive the rod into a seating position in the bone screw; and to provide such a set of tools and methods that are easy to use and especially adapted for the intended use thereof and wherein the tools are comparatively inexpensive to produce.
- Other objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent from the following description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein are set forth, by way of illustration and example, certain embodiments of this invention.

Each of the bone screws 6 also include ahead 66 with arod receiving channel 67 passing therethrough. Each of thebone screw shanks 60 includes anupper portion 70 that extends into thehead 66 and is operationally secured therein, so that thehead 66 is rotatable on theshank 60 until locked in position through engagement with therod 4 under pressure. In particular, each shankupper portion 70 has an upwardly extendingdome 71 that engages therod 4, when therod 4 is placed within an associatedchannel 67 so that as therod 4 urges thedome 71 downwardly, the shankupper portion 70 frictionally locks theshank 60 in position in a fixed angular position relative to thehead 66. Many different conventional bone screws where the head locks relative to the shank are well known in the art. - The present invention is not intended to be restricted to a particular type of bone screw. In the present embodiment, a polyaxial
type bone screw 6 is utilized wherein theshank 60 is locked in position by direct contact with therod 4. It is foreseen that tool set 1 of the present invention can be used with virtually any type of bone screw, including polyaxial bone screws of many different types wherein the head is locked relative to the shank by structure other than in the manner described in the illustrated embodiment. - Each
bone screw head 66 has a pair ofupstanding arms arms 74 includes a circumferentionally locatedreceiver 78 that comprises a lower slot 79 that extends partially circumferentially about the periphery of thearm 74 and ends in an upperwardly projecting but hiddenrecess 80. While the slot 79 is located on thearm 74 in the illustrated embodiment, a slot for this purpose could be located anywhere on thebone screw head 66. The slot 79 andrecess 80 are sized, shaped and positioned so as to receive theattachment structure 55 of the end guides 9 therein. For greater detail, see the description below for the attachment structure associated withintermediate guide tools 10 and shown inFIGS. 10 and 11 . The guidetool attachment structure 55 is sized and shaped to allow theattachment structure 55 to be received in thereceiver 78 and locked therein by pulling theend guide tool 9 slightly axially upward relative to arespective bone screw 6. In order to disengage theguide tool 9 from thebone screw 6, theguide tool 9 is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise from an attaching configuration, when viewing from the top so as to disengage the hook 57 from therecess 80 and so that the base 56 and hook 57 of theattachment structure 55 free to rotate above therod 4 andclosure top 52 and be released from thereceiver 78. In this manner,end guide tools 9 twist off ofrespective bone screws 6 and in the particular illustrated embodiment theend guide tools 9 are also assembled on the bone screws 6 by the opposite twist on maneuver is the reverse of the twist off maneuver. In certain embodiments where there is enough flexibility in thelegs legs FIG. 7 , so theend guide tool 9 snaps-on over thebone screw 6, as will be described for theintermediate guide tools 10 below. - The unflexed space between the
legs opening 35 is preferably substantially equivalent to the space between the bone screwarms channel 34 of theend guide tool 9 aligns with thechannel 67 of thebone screw 6 when theend guide tool 9 is mounted on arespective bone screw 6. Therecess 49 is sized, shaped and positioned so that when therod 4 is located in the bone screws 6, theend guide tool 9 can rotate about axis A and therecess 49 allows theend guide tool 9 to straddle over therod 4, thereby allowing theend guide tool 9 to twist relative to thebone screw 6 and free theattachment structure 55 from thereceiver 78 and thereafter be removed after all procedures are complete, as described below. - Each of the intermediate guide tools 10 (see especially FIGS. 1 to 3) have a somewhat similar overall shape when compared to the
end guide tools 9 in that both are preferably of the same axial length and width and also have much structure in common; however with certain differences as noted. Many of the structures of theintermediate guide tools 10 that are the same as theend guide tools 9 are given the same reference number and the above noted description applies to eachsuch tool - Each
intermediate guide tool 10 has an overallelongate body 84 with anupper portion 86, anintermediate portion 87 and alower portion 88. In theupper portion 86, thebody 84 is generally C-shaped having a radially outward opening and elongate and axially extendingchannel 90 terminating in a web orrear wall 91 withside walls channel 90 has afront opening 95 that extends parallel to an axis of thebody 84 and that is sized and shaped to receive tools and elements described below. - The
intermediate portion 87 also includes an outwardly openingchannel 97 with a rear web orwall 98 having alower end 100 and afront opening 99 that is not as wide as theopening 95. Thelower portion 88 includes two spaced side walls orlegs passthrough opening 101 between thelegs intermediate tool 10 and near theintermediate portion 87. Thelegs slot 105 sized and shaped to slidingly receive therod 6. - The
lower portion 88 extends substantially axially along theintermediate guide tools 10 and preferably to the location in use where theintermediate guide tools 10 pass through theskin 14. - The bottom 39 of each
intermediate guide tool 10 includes a helically wound but discontinuous square thread or first guide andadvancement structure 109 that cooperates with theclosure top 52, as described below. The lower end of eachintermediate guide tool 10 also includes acutout 112 and anattachment structure 113 similar to structure 55 of the same type described for eachend guide tool 9. - The attachment structure 113 (see especially FIGS. 9 to 11) includes a
body 114 with an upperwardly extending, projection, flange orhook member 115 that follows the inner curvature of theguide tool leg 93. Thebody 114 extends radially inward and is sized and shaped to mate with and set within the bonescrew head receiver 78. Thebone screw receiver 78 is sufficiently wide to simultaneously receive both thebody 114 andhook member 115 in a radially inward direction, as is shown in the view inFIG. 10 . Theattachment structure 113 is then set by axially raising theguide tool 10 relative to thebone screw 6 so at least part of thehook member 115 is located in therecess 80 which secures the guide tool 10 (likewise guide tool 9) to arespective bone screw 6, as seen inFIG. 11 . This locks theguide tool 10 to arespective bone screw 6 and prevents outward splaying of theleg 93. This is a snap-on type installation or assembly as seen inFIG. 7 where theleg 93 splays outward during initial placement of theguide tool 10 over thebone screw 6 and then returns to an unsplayed position when theattachment structure 113 seats in thereceiver 78, as shown inFIG. 10 . Alternatively, theguide tool 10 can be rotated approximately 90° about its axis A prior to joining with arespective bone screw 6, theattachment structure 113 lowered through the opening between the bone screwarms bone screw receiver 78, after which theguide tool 10 is rotated back to the first position shown inFIG. 11 in a twist on type assembly. In some instances theguide tool 10 is rotated somewhat more or less than ninety degrees to make the necessary alignment for removal which depends on the specific construction of the parts. -
Enclosure 52 closes between the spaced bone screwarms rod 4 in thechannel 67. The closure top 52 can be any of many different plug type closures. Preferably theclosure top 52 has acylindrical body 123 that has a helically wound mating guide andadvancement structure 125. The guide and advance atstructure 125 can be of any type, including V-type threads, buttress threads, reverse angle threads, or square threads. Preferably the guide andadvancement structure 125 is a helically wound flange form that interlocks with a reciprocal flange form as part of the second guide and advancement structure 76 on the interior of the bone screwarms helical wound guide 50 and advancement structure in the bottom 39 of each of theguide tools advancement structure 125 of theclosure top 52 and align with the second guide and advancement structure 76 of thebone screw 6 to form a generally continuous helically wound pathway, but does not require locking between theclosure top 52 and thetools closure top 52. The illustratedstructure 125 has a square form or a square thread type shape. Theguide 50 allows the closure top 52 to be rotated and the surgeon to develop mechanical advantage to urge or drive therod 4, while still outside thebone screw head 6, toward and into thebone screw head 66. This is especially helpful where therod 4 is bent relative to the location of thevertebra 18 to which therod 4 is to attach and is not easily placed in thebone screw head 66 without force and the mechanical advantage provided by theguide 50. In particular, the first guide andadvancement structure 109 on eachtool arms FIGS. 17 and 18 and pass the closure top 52 therebetween while allowing the closure top 52 to continue to rotate and to continuously apply force to therod 4, so as to seat therod 4 in thebone screw head 66. - Each closure top 52 also preferably includes a break off
head 127 that breaks from thebody 123 in a break offregion 128 upon the application of a preselected torque, such as 95 inch-pounds. The break off head preferably has a hexagonal cross sectionfaceted exterior 129 that is adapted to mate with a similarly shaped socket of a closure driving orinstallation tool 145, described below. It is foreseen that different driving heads or other methods of driving the closure top 52 can be utilize with certain embodiments of the invention. - Additional tools are utilized to assemble the implant. In particular,
FIG. 16 illustrates a rod pusher 136 on the left. The pusher 136 has an elongate shaft orrod 138 that is preferably received in and passes through the interior of theguides channel 90 of theguide tool 10. The pusher 136 also has atip 139 for engaging and urging therod 4 downward, where there is minor resistance, and ahandle 141. It is foreseen that a pusher or gripper of the type that operates outside theguide tools skin 14 and more invasion of the patient. - Shown in
FIG. 16 on the left and inFIG. 17 is theclosure installation tool 145. Thetool 145 has an elongate rod or shaft 147 adapted to be received in and pass axially through any of the channels of theguides handle 149. The lower end of the rod 147 terminates in asocket 148 that is adapted to receive the closure break offhead 127, as shown inFIG. 17 . - Another tool used in implanting a
rod 4 is anantitorque tool 153 which is seen in FIGS. 20 to 22. Theantitorque tool 153 is preferably used with theclosure installation tool 145 to torque and set theclosure top 52, so it is snug against therod 4, and thereafter break away the break offhead 127 in the manner shown inFIG. 22 . Theantitorque tool 153 includes a tubularhollow shaft 155 that is sized and shaped to be slidably received over theguide antitorque tool 153 has alower end 157 that has a pair of diametrically spaced bridges 158. Each of thebridges 158 is sized and shaped to fit over therod 4, as seen inFIG. 21 . When in place, as seen inFIG. 21 , theantitorque tool 153 allows a surgeon to counter torque applied by theinstallation tool 145, when applying torque to and breaking away the break offhead 127. Theantitorque tool 153 also has anupper handle 16 with an opening through which theinstallation tool 145 passes in the manner suggested by the dashed lines inFIG. 20 . - In use, the previously described tools are utilized to attach one or
more rods 4 to the humanspinal column 17. - The procedure is begun by forming a relatively small incision, such as
incision 165 in theskin 14 for eachbone screw 6 to be used. Theincisions 165 are stretched into a round shape with a circumference equal to or just slightly larger than theguide tools skin 14 is relatively flexible and allows the surgeon to move theincision 165 around relative to thespine 17 to manipulate the various tools and implants, as required. A drill (not shown) is utilized to form a guide bore (not shown) in avertebra 18 under guidance of non invasive imaging techniques, which procedure is well known and established. Athin pin 166 is inserted in the guide bore. Abone screw 6 is selected in accordance with the size of the patient'svertebra 18 and the requirements of the spinal support needed. Bone screws 6 having a rotatable or polyaxial head 66 are preferred for the procedure, as such allow relatively easy adjustment of therod 4 in thetools tools bone screw 6 is also cannulated so as to be receivable over and guided by thepin 166 toward the proper position in the associatedvertebra 18. - Before placing the
bone screw 6 in thevertebra 18, thebone screw 6 is preferably joined to an associatedguide tool bone screw 6, but it is preferred to assemble both before inserting thebone screw 6. With respect to theintermediate guide tool 10, the lower end of theguide tool 10 is splayed or expanded outwardly by forcing thebone screw head 66 between thelegs FIG. 7 until theattachment structure 113 aligns with thereceiver 78 and the former snaps into the later, as shown inFIG. 8 . Axial upward movement of theguide tool 10 relative to thebone screw 6 then sets theattachment structure 113 in therecess 80 in the process that is illustrated betweenFIGS. 10 and 11 . Alternatively, thetool 10 can be axially rotated ninety degrees relative to thebone screw 6 and theattachment structure 113 aligned with therecess 80 and then rotated back. The placement of theguide tools 9 on the associatedbone screws 6 normally follows the later twist on procedure, as the structure of theguide tools 9 allow less flexing because of thelonger back wall 21. Withtool 9, theattachment structure 55 is placed in arespective receiver 55. - A series of
bone screws 6 are installed in eachvertebra 18 to be attached to therod 4 by use of a screwdriver orinstallation tool 135, seeFIG. 12 , that has a head, designed to grip theparticular bone screw 6 used and which is also cannulated to receive thepin 166. For eachbone screw 6, an associatedguide tool skin 14, as seen inFIG. 13 . Anend guide tool 9 is located at each end of the series ofbone screws 6 and anintermediate guide tool 10 is located on eachintermediate bone screw 6. Theend guide tools 9 are turned or rotated so thechannels 34 therein face one another and theintermediate guide tools 10 are aligned soslots 105 align with thechannels 34. - The
rod 4 is then inserted diagonally through one of theend skin incisions 165 in the manner shown inFIG. 13 so that afirst rod end 42 passes through theslots 105 in anyintermediate guide tools 10 and into thechannel 34 of the opposedend guide tool 9. Back muscle tissue separates easily here to allow the upper insertion of therod 4 and can be further separated by finger separation or cutting through one of theincisions 165, if required. - After initial insertion, the
second end 42 of therod 4 is positioned in thechannel 34 of theend guide tool 9 that is located next to the insertion point of therod 4, as is seen inFIG. 14 . - Once the
rod 4 is positioned in theguide tools FIG. 16 is utilized to push therod 4 in eachguide tool bone screw 6 associated with theguide tool rod 4 is in approximately the position seen inFIG. 15 . During this time, theend guide tools 9 can be manipulated to help movement of therod 4 therealong and can especially have the tops thereof splayed outwardly relative to each other, as seen inFIG. 15 . Again, the flexibility of theskin 14 allows such manipulation. Once therod 4 reaches the bottom 39 of theend guide tools 9, the rod ends 42 encounter thecut outs 45 on either side of therod 4 and pass therethrough. Therod 4 is sized to extend a little beyond eachend bone screw 6 to ensure full capture and reduce likelihood of dislodgement. Because thechannels 34 are slightly inward of the full outer length of therod 4, thechannels 34 must be tilted outward somewhat as seen inFIG. 15 to allow therod 4 to pass down thechannels 34 or oneend 42 must be driven downward before the other. When therod 4 is at the bottom of theguide tools FIG. 19 , theend guide tools 9 can be returned to a position that is appropriate for properly aligning the bone screw heads 6 relative to therod 4 prior to tightening and torquing the closure tops 52. Because therod 4 is normally bent and/or thevertebrae 18 do not align properly, therod 4 must normally be biased into the bone screw heads 6. This is accomplished by using theclosure installation tool 145 in the manner illustrated on the right hand side inFIG. 16 and inFIG. 17 . - In particular, the
tool 145 has asocket 148 that grips the break offhead 127 of theclosure top 52. Theinstallation tool 145 with closure top 52 therein is placed in the elongate top to bottom channel associated with theguide tools channel 25 throughopening 26 inguide tool 9 or intochannel 25 through thetop end 38 of theguide tool 9. Theclosure top 52 is then driven under manual control of the surgeon by use of theinstallation tool 145 toward therod 4. Near the bottom of theguide tools end guide tool 9, theclosure top 52 engages the helical wound first guide andadvancement structure 50 and thetool 145 and closure top 52 are rotated mate the closure tophelical mating structure 125 with the first guide andadvancement structure 50 so as to drive the closure top 52 downward against therod 4 and to urge therod 4 downward into thebone screw channel 67. At the bottom of theguide tool top mating structure 125 engages and begins to mate with the guide and advancement structure 76 on arespective bone screw 6 and continued rotation of thetool 145 drives therod 4 downward and into engagement with thedome 71 of thebone screw shank 60, so as to snug against and frictionally lock theshank 60 in position relative to thebone screw head 66, seeFIG. 18 . - Once all of the closure tops 52 are in final seating position in
respective bone screws 6 and the surgeon is satisfied with the position of all of the elements, such as is seen inFIG. 19 , theantitorque tool 153 is mounted over eachguide tool FIG. 21 with thebridges 158 straddling therod 4 to prevent rotation. Theinstallation tool 145 is inserted in the associatedguide tool head 127. By cooperative use of thetools 145 and 153 a preselected torque is manually applied to the break offhead 127 and it breaks from the closuretop body 123 in the manner shown inFIG. 22 and is removed along with theantitorque tool 153. - The
guide tools structures arms FIG. 23 , so that therecess 49 straddles therod 4 to allow theattachment structure receiver 78. Theguide tool bone screw 6 and from theincision 165 in theskin 14, after which theincision 165 is closed. - It is to be understood that while certain forms of the present invention have been illustrated and described herein, it is not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangement of parts described and shown.
