A method, and apparatus for interosseous bone fixation uses a compression U-shaped staple (11) having a pair of legs (13) with sharp front ends (15), proximal ends interconnect by a bridge portion (17) that is resilient, and bowed; the staple (11) having initial configuration, and capable of a tensioned configuration by spreading apart the legs (13) causing a curvature of the bridge (17) to lessen; and the legs (13) urged towards each other. A staple applicator (29) supports, and guides the staple (11).
Cette invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant la fixation interosseuse. Ledit dispositif comprend une agrafe à compression en forme de U (11) comprenant une paire de branches (13) à extrémités frontales (15) pointues, et extrémités proximales reliées par une partie de raccord (17) résiliante courbée. L'agrafe (11) possède une configuration initiale et peut adopter une configuration tendue correspondant à un certain écartement des branches (13) et provoquant la diminution de la courbure de la partie de raccord (17), et le rapprochement des branches (13) l'une vers l'autre. Un applicateur d'agrafe (29) sert de support et de guide à l'agrafe (11).
