摘要：
A bone repair system and method for percutaneously fixing a first bone segment to a second bone segment, such as rib bone segments, in a body of a patient include drilling a first hole through the first bone segment and a second hole through the second bone segment, and feeding a first tether through the first hole and a second tether through the second hole, each tether having a proximal end and a distal end. The first and second tether distal ends are withdrawn from the body while the first and second tether proximal ends have not passed through the first and second bone segments, respectively. A reinforcing member, such as a bone plate, having first and second openings, is passed onto the first and second tether distal ends, and the reinforcing member is pulled into engagement with the first and second bone segments guided by the tethers. The reinforcing member is secured to the first bone segment with a first fastener assembly through the first hole and the first opening and to the second bone segment with a second fastener assembly through the second hole and the second opening to fix the first bone segment to the second bone segment.L'invention porte sur un système et un procédé de réparation osseuse pour fixer de façon percutanée un premier segment osseux à un second segment osseux, tel que des segments osseux de côte dans un corps d'un patient, comprenant le perçage d'un premier trou à travers le premier segment osseux et d'un second trou à travers le second segment osseux, et l'introduction d'une première attache à travers le premier trou et d'une seconde attache à travers le second trou, chaque attache ayant une extrémité proximale et une extrémité distale. Les extrémités distales des premier et second câbles sont extraites du corps tandis que les extrémités proximales des première et seconde attaches ne sont pas passées à travers les premier et second segments osseux, respectivement. Un élément de renforcement, tel qu'une plaque osseuse, ayant des premièr
