Fixing device, set screw, use of set screw, combination of fixing device and longitudinal element, configuration with combination and retaining structure, and osteosynthesis set
The device (10) e.g. screw (70), has an opening (43) receiving an elongate element e.g. wire (40), with a main body, where the main body is radially deformable relative to the elongate element in a clamp area, such that dimension of the opening is reduced. The main body includes an outer contour that is designed in a way that the clamp area is deformed, such that the elongate element is clamped securely in the opening, when the device is inserted into a seat. The opening has an inner surface that is partially structured. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a locking screw with a screw head, comprising an opening (2) a method for fixing an elongate element in a retaining structure with a locking screw (3) a combination of a fixation device and an elongate element, comprising a structured surface (4) an arrangement with a combination, comprising a seat (5) an osteosynthesis set, including implant plates.
