The present invention discloses a securing device that is used to secure a fixation device to two bone portions to promote healing between the two bone portions. The bone portions commonly include a skull bone portion and a skull bone flap or implant, and the fixation device is commonly a cranial clamp. The securing device provides for securing the fixation device in a uniform, single movement as opposed to currently available products. The securing device has two handles pivotably connected, and a gripping means moveably associated with one handle. As the handles are activated, the gripping means travels proximally along the one handle and grips an elongated section of the fixation device and exerts a tensioning force along the shaft of the elongated section prior to the cutting means cutting the elongated shaft to secure the fixation device in place.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de solidarisation servant à assujettir un dispositif de fixation à deux parties osseuses pour favoriser la guérison entre les deux parties osseuses. Les parties osseuses concernent normalement une partie osseuse du crâne et un lambeau ou implant osseux, et le dispositif de fixation est généralement un clamp crânien. Le dispositif de solidarisation assure l'assujettissement du dispositif de fixation en un unique mouvement régulier contrairement aux produits actuellement disponibles. Le dispositif de solidarisation comporte deux manches reliés en pivotement, et un moyen de préhension associé de manière mobile à un manche. Lors de l'activation des manches, le moyen de préhension se déplace le long d'un manche et saisit une section de forme allongée du dispositif de fixation et exerce une force de tension le long de la tige de la section de forme allongée préalablement à la découpe de la tige de forme allongée par le moyen de coupe pour assujettir le dispositif de fixation en place.
