Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2907658A1] The device (1) has two passages provided in form of tubes (2, 3), where each tube includes input and output ends and permits passage of surgical wires (7). A locking unit locks the wires and is arranged at the two tubes, where the device is formed of a biocompatible material and is covered by an encapsulation material e.g. silicone. The locking unit facilitates sliding of the surgical wire in front from the input end towards the output end and prevents any untimely sliding in rear of the surgical wire from the output end towards the input end.
