摘要：Disclosed are apparatus and methods for performing cerclage. In some aspectsof the present invention, the apparatus is designed to both compress a fracture and aidthe operator in applying cerclage thereto. Cerclage is facilitated by providing a
passageway internal to the apparatus that encircles the fracture during compression ofthe fracture with the apparatus. The internal passageway allows a cerclage material to bethreaded therethrough without disruption or damage to surrounding tissue, skin, or thelike. Upon removal of the apparatus, cerclage may be performed by tightening orotherwise tying off the cerclage material. In some embodiments of the present invention,the apparatus portions comprising the internal passageway are removable to allow suchpassageways to be discarded after each use, thereby simplifying sterilization and the likethereof. In other aspects of the present invention, interlocking components are providedto facilitate threading of the cerclage material through the apparatus.
