CERCLAGE WIRE POSITIONING INSERT |
摘要 |
<p>A bone fracture stabilization apparatus includes a cable positioning insert for a bone plate of the type having a series of apertures therein for receiving bone screws for attaching the bone plate to the bone. The cable positioning insert has a body shaped for at least partial insertion into at least one of the apertures of the bone plate. The insert further includes a flange extending from the body for engaging either the outer or inward surface of the bone plate. A boss extends from the body in a direction away from the bone when the bone plate is mounted thereon. The boss has at least one opening and preferably two openings therein for accommodating a cerclage cable and positioning it relative to the apertures in the bone. The boss may be made of a malleable material that deforms under pressure to flatten the openings therein and capture the cable.</p> |
