    摘要: A device for tensioning a surgical thread comprising: an elongated body having a tip portion adapted to be arranged in contact with a knot of a surgical thread wound about a patient's bone and a maneuvering member connected to the elongated body by a screw and nut mechanism configured to adjust the distance between said elongated body and said maneuvering member, said maneuvering member having respective coupling portions for coupling opposite ends of the surgical thread wound and knotted about the bone. The opposite ends of the surgical thread reversibly constrainable to the respective coupling portions in a use configuration of the device. The distance between the elongated body and the maneuvering member can be increased along a movement axis to tension the opposite ends so as to tighten the surgical thread about the bone. The tip portion has a groove shaped to receive at least partially the knot.
