Bone fixing devices include (I) a surgical cable having a first end and a second end and (II) at least a first fixing plate and a second fixing plate. The first and second fixing plates are respectively provided with first and second central holes and first and second rings surrounding the first and second holes. The circumference of each fixing plate defines an outer edge of its respective ring and an inner edge of the ring being adjacent to the hole it surrounds. The first fixing plate is in a stacked position on top of the second plate so as to define a gap therebetween with the plates and the holes at least partly overlapping each other. The cable ends follow a continuous trajectory running around and between the plates and through the holes in such way that by drawing the cable ends the cable is tensioned around the bone parts so as to and fixate the same.
