Problems solved by technology

However, this kind of prosthesis has the disadvantage of poor adhesion between the outer capsule material and the filling material, and there is a hidden danger that the outer capsule material is easily peeled off and broken after long-term use.
Once the outer capsule material is broken, the biocompatibility of the inner core material composed entirely of silica gel is also at risk due to the lack of long-term evaluation.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing an artificial nucleus pulposus prosthetic material, and belongs to the technical field of high polymer materials. The method comprises the following steps of: synthesizing a silicon-containing polyurethane capsule material; preparing a polyurethane capsule and a silicon-containing polyurethane filler; and planting the silicon-containing polyurethanefiller in the polyurethane capsule. In the preparation method, the external capsule of the nucleus pulposus is made of the thermoplastic silicon-containing (or silicon-free) polyurethane, and the silicon-containing polyurethane cured at room temperature is used as a filling material in the capsule. The polyurethane external capsule is formed in vitro, and the silicon-containing polyurethane curedat room temperature is injected into a human body in a liquid form and then is polymerized in situ. The external capsule and the filling material prepared by the method have the advantages of excellent mechanical properties, good biocompatibility, convenient fabricated operation and clinical operation and the like, and also have excellent adhesion; and the silicon element introduced also greatly prolongs the service life of the nucleus pulposus prosthesis in a human body.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method for an artificial intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus prosthesis material, belonging to the technical field of polymer materials. Background technique [0002] Lumbar nucleus pulposus replacement is a new method for the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases in recent years. This method can not only overcome the shortcomings of lumbar fusion, but also preserve the motor function of the spine. The artificial nucleus pulposus that has been clinically applied at present is a hydrogel-type externally formed prosthetic nucleus pulposus, that is, the shape and size of the nucleus pulposus are preformed in vitro, and then implanted into the body to absorb water and expand to form. The most typical representative is the hydrogel nucleus pulposus prosthesis developed by American Raymedia Corporation (Ray CD. The PDN prosthetic disc-nucleus device. Eur Spine J 2002, 11: 137-142). However, the large fibrous annu...
