Rib/rib cage internal fixation/bracing system (An assembly of non-sterile devices designed to be used to stabilize traumatic fractures, congenital deformities, and postsurgical deficits of the ribs and rib cage. The assembly typically consists of implantable grips and bars, with an assortment of reusable tools designed for cutting, bending, and crimping the implants. The grips are designed to clasp around a rib and can be used to approximate rib fractures, or they may have arms to hold bracing bars which are designed to bridge across deficits in the rib cage. This is a reusable device after implanted components have been replenished; it must be sterilized prior to each use.)
