About this study

The use of cerclage wiring in the management of long bone fractures is common. With the increase in the placement of total hip ans shoulder prostheses, the occurrence of peri-prosthetic hip an shoulder fractures is also increasing, notably due to an older population. Whether it is for a fracture on a native femur or humerus, or on a periprosthetic hip or shoulder fracture, the use of cerclage wiring is an adjuvant additional but not the main means to ensure stable osteosynthesis, allowing re-loading and early rehabilitation of patients. This method has demonstrated its ability to improve the fixation of this fracture type, associated with osteosynthesis or hip/shoulder prosthesis revision surgery. However, metal cerclage expose to a risk of metallosis which can compromise bone fusion, injury to neighboring soft parts causing pain and also injury to the surgical team when handling them. More recently, non-metallic cerclage have been developed and could overcome certain risks associated with metallic cerclage, while ensuring their bone fixing capacity and therefore bone consolidation. Indeed, non-metallic cerclage could withstand similar or even greater stresses than metallic cables, in particular concerning their resistance to rupture. The "Sterile Self Locking Polymer Cerclage System" named OrthoLoop is a polymer cerclage which has been developed and could be used in these indications. Thus, this study (SERRE) aims to investigate the clinical results and sequelae of adjuva…
