Abstract
A double-apertured L-shaped crimp (14) is crimped to one end of a cable (16). The other end of the cable (13) is passed around the bone (12) or bones and, if the situation requires, any orthopedic appliance or device to be attached to the bones, and it is then passed through the other aperture (24) in the crimp. The cable is then tensioned by application thereto of a tensioning tool (17) with the tool applied to the cable and to an abutment face (23) of the crimp, whereupon the cable is tensioned. Then the cable portion in the aperture adjacent the tensioning tool is crimped onto the cable to complete the attachment. Then the tensioning tool is removed, and the free end of the cable is cut off at the abutment surface (23).
Claims
AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 3 February 1995 (03.02.95); original claims 1, 3 and 9-13 amended; original claims 5-8 cancelled; new claim 14 added; remaining claims unchanged (3 pages)]
1. A method for securing cable around bone and comprising the steps of: taking a cable having one end affixed in a crimp, and passing the other end of the cable around the bone and returning to the crimp; feeding the other end of the cable through an aperture in the crimp; engaging a cable tensioning tool with the crimp and with a portion of the cable between the crimp and the other end of the cable after the other end was fed through the aperture; using the tool for applying tension on the cable; fixing, by swaging the crimp and in the crimp aperture, that portion of the cable residing in the aperture when the applied tension on the cable is at a desired value; and removing the tensioning tool from the cable.
2. The method of claim 1 and wherein: the fixing step is performed by cold crimping the crimp onto the cable portion residing in the aperture.
3. The method of claim 1 and further comprising the step of: after removing the tensioning tool from the cable, cutting off the cable at the location where the tensioning tool engaged the crimp.
4. The method of claim 1 and wherein: the steps of passing and feeding and tensioning are peiformable without the cable contacting itself.
9. A surgical cable assembly comprising: a crimp having first and second crimpable portions with first and second apertures therein, respectively; a cable having an end portion fixed in the first aperture in the crimp and an opposite end portion receivable through the second aperture in the crimp; the cable being crimped in the second aperture at a location along the cable between the fixed end portion and the opposite end portion; the first aperture being separate from the second aperture; the apertures having longitudinally extending central axes in parallel planes; the axis of one of the apertures being perpendicular to a third plane containing the axis of the other aperture, the axis of the other aperture lying in the third plane.
10. The cable assembly of claim 9 and wherein: the crimp is made of stainless steel annealed dead soft; and the cable is made of multiple strands of commercially pure titanium.
11. A surgical cable assembly for encircling bone comprising:
a generally -shaped body for securing and maintaining the cable around said bone and having a base portion and a column portion, a multiple strand round metal cable having one end portion fixed in the base portion, and an aperture in the column portion sized to receive the other end of the cable therethrough.
12. The assembly of claim 11 and wherein: the one end portion is irreversibly fixed in the base portion.
13. The assembly of claim 11 and wherein: there is an aperture in the base portion, each of the apertures has a longitudinal axis, the apertures being separate from each other, and the axes of the apertures lying in two perpendicular planes.
14. The assembly of claim 13 and wherein: the one end portion is fixed in the aperture in the base portion, the cable extends from the one fixed end portion out of the body at the base portion and back into the body at an end of the first-mentioned aperture adjacent the base portion and up through the first-mentioned aperture to the top of the column portion.
