A sternal closure and ribs approximator device, comprises: a substantially C-shaped shaft/bracket ( 12 ), said bracket ( 12 ) comprising a linear shaft ( 12a ) and a pair of curvilinear arms ( 12b, 12c ) at either ends of the shaft respectively; and a pair of claw shaped clamping elements ( 14b, 14c ), each claw shaped clamping element ( 14b, 14c ) coupling with an arm of the C-shaped shaft/bracket ( 12 ), near its end portion, said claw shaped clamping element ( 14b, 14c ) being positioned such that the concavity of the claw faces the inner area ( 16 ) determined by the arms of the C-shaped clamping shaft/bracket, the coupling being provided by means of a fastening mechanism such that angular displacement of the claw shaped clamping element ( 14b, 14c ) about the pivoted fastening mechanism is provisioned, said claw shaped clamping elements ( 14b, 14c ) adapted to be angularly displaced towards each other or away from each other. |
