More Information
Summary:The present embodiments include a cable cerclage system and method for the correction of fractures. The system and method can include a cable saddle including first and second loops extending from an upper surface thereof, the first and second loops including apertures extending therethrough and sized and shaped to receive a cerclage cable therethrough. The present embodiments are also directed to a cable cerclage system including at least one cable link, the cable link having a through-hole extending therethrough from a first end to a second end and including a first coupling member at a first and a second coupling member at a second end. The first coupling member of a first cable link is configured to couple to the second coupling member of an adjacent second cable link so that the through-holes of the first and second cable links align to form an elongated cerclage cable passageway.
