In bone surgery it is essential to compress fractures
interfragmentarily in order to make them resistant to the tensile
force of muscles and the force resulting from acceleration and
deceleration. This can be best achieved by the use of cable tension
bands as a traction mechanism. The cable tension band is - in terms
of stability of fractures - far superior to the conventional rigid
cerclage wire which has been widely used in osteosynthesis for over
100 years. The author explains the biomechanics of the tension band
in detail. Theoretical findings are confirmed by clinical test
results. All osteosynthetic techniques which can be carried out
with cables are described giving details of operation instructions.
Errors and risks are always pointed out. A reference book and
operative manual at a time.
