ABSTRACT:
An implant for use in retention of the greater trochanter comprising a circumferentially extending band and first and second bands extending between opposite regions of the circumferentially extending band. One or more prongs are coupled to the bands. The implant cooperates with a wire for tying the implant in position over the greater trochanter. The bands of the implant are deformable so that they can be conformed to approximate the contour of the greater trochanter. The prongs are adapted to penetrate the abductor muscle-tendon attached to the greater trochanter to help retain the greater trochanter in position.
