Abstract:
A crimp configured to fix a cable about a bone includes a body extending from a proximal end to a distal end and a first channel extending through the body from the proximal end to the distal end, the first channel being sized and shaped to permit a cable to be slid therethrough along with a second channel extending through the body from the proximal end to the distal end, the second channel being sized and shaped to permit a cable to be slid therethrough and a deformable extension attached to the proximal end of the body, the extension including a lumen aligned with the second channel and sized and shaped to permit the cable to be slid therethrough.
