<p>system, and method for closing a first side (12) of a severed bone (14) with a second side (16) of a severed bone (14) of a patient. The system includes a first anchor mechanism (18) which is adapted to enter into the first side of the bone. The first anchor mechanism (18) comprises a housing (20a) having a first opening (22a) which extends through the housing. The system also comprises a second anchor mechanism (24) which is adapted to anchor into the second side of the bone. The second mechanism comprises a housing (20b) having a second opening (22b) which extends through the housing. The second anchor mechanism is separate, and remote from the first anchor mechanism. The system also comprises a lash (26) that extends through the first opening of the first anchor mechanism, and the second opening of the second anchor mechanism which binds the first side of the severed bone with the second side of the severed bone.____________________________________________</p> |
