Why should CCG® Cerclage be used especially during stem revisions?

0

Sclerotic areas, occurring particularly in damaged and weakened bone, can lead to fractures and fissures during surgical preparation of the bone and impaction of the stem implant. Such complications are predictable and can be prevented by affixing a CCG® cerclage before reaming. The band can then act prophylactically to prevent shaft fragmentation.
