Luque Spinal Fixation Wire - Beaded Loop
Closed loop wires for the spine are primarily indicated for use in double wiring procedures where maximum security is mandatory. Closed looped wires are passed subliminally and then cut, forming two wires and are used for wiring on both sides of the spinous process. Open looped wires are most useful with a single wire technique.
Cerclage is a term that is used for wires in trauma cases.
