Demel Bone Wire Guide 27.5cm

Clinical Application

Used to pass cerclage or bone fixation wire around bone contours during orthopedic and trauma procedures. The instrument facilitates controlled routing of flexible stainless steel wire for cerclage wiring, tension-band constructs, and other osteosynthesis techniques where a reliable method for threading wire around bone is required. The 27.5 cm length provides added reach for mid-deep surgical fields such as the femur, humerus, and pelvis while maintaining tactile control in smaller anatomic regions.

Design & Configuration

Configured as a hand-held guide that enables precise placement and retrieval of cerclage wire with minimal soft-tissue manipulation. The length balances reach and control, allowing the operator to negotiate around bone geometry and soft-tissue envelopes. A low-profile distal geometry and smooth shaft reduce the risk of soft-tissue entanglement and facilitate atraumatic passage of wire along bone surfaces. The handle design supports single-handed manipulation and controlled transfer of the wire to a secondary instrument or surgeon.
