<p>A surgical cable crimp device including a cable (50; 80) with a fixed and a free end and a crimp member (20) for securing the cable (50; 80). The crimp member (20) has a first leg having a blind hole for receiving the fixed end of the cable (50; 80), and a second leg with a through bore extending through the second leg for receiving the free end of the cable (50; 80), the first and second legs connected in the front by a front bridging portion and in the back by a rear bridging portion. The rear bridging portion is longer than the front bridging portion so that the crimp member (20) has a wedge-shape and the second leg is crimpable so that the cable (50; 80) is crimped to the crip member (20) after the free end is inserted in the through bore.</p> |
