Paragraph Number

2

Various surgical procedures in people and animals include a fixation step, procedure, use of a device (also referred to as a fixator), of the like. The fixation feature, or function, may be between two pieces of bone, soft tissue and bone, soft tissue and hard tissue, soft tissue and soft tissue, and/or a combination of these. Unfortunately, many known fixation techniques, steps, procedures, devices, or components are complicated, involve multiple parts, are not easy to revise, become loose over time, are difficult to tension, and have other limitations.
