Cerclages regain interest due to a rising number of periprosthetic fractures. The contact distribution at the circumferential cerclage-bone interface is still unknown. Local interface pressure depends on the amount of contact area. Cortical damage at the interface would provoke cerclage loosening. Therefore, the contact area, the bone pressure along the interface and the cortical resistance underneath loaded cerclages were determined in an ex vivo model.
