Fracture repair constructs. Each of the 3 cable-plate systems (constructs A, B, and C) were mechanically tested and subsequently transformed into 3 screw-plate systems for retesting. For the cable-plate setup, construct A and C had 4 single-cable loops applied proximally as shown, whereas construct B had double-wire loops at each of the 4 proximal locations.
