REMOTELY ALIGNED SURGICAL DRILL GUIDE

摘要

A surgical drill guide assembly (100) for demountable attachment to a slotted bone plate is provided. The drill guide assembly (100) includes one or more alignment drill tubes (134; 136) that are remotely aligned with corresponding fastener holes in the bone plate, and an expandable bushing (206) that is configured and dimensioned to engage a slot in the bone plate. A variable angle block (202) permits angulation of the alignment drill tubes (134; 136) about a central axis of the surgical drill guide assembly (100). The alignment drill tubes (134; 136) are releasably lockable at a surgeon-selected angle.
