Device for fixation of bone fragments - has flat band with support element at one end and toothed section at other which passes through support element to be fixed in required position.

摘要

The device for bone fragment fixation has a tension element, in the form of a flat band (10), which is formed into a loop or cylindrical shape. At the bone end (11), of the band, is a support element (12) through which the end (13) of the band, most distant from the bone fragment, is fed so as to be able to be tightened up. The tension band in the area (40) where it meets the support element has lateral slots or toothed edges (42) which are used to fix the tension band in the support element with the help of forceps (98) which deform the support element.
