<p>A bone connector system (10) includes first (20) and second connector members (30), at least one and preferably both, of which carries an external bone screw thread (22 & 32) to permit securance within a bone. One of the connector members (20) defines a boss (25) having an outer end (27) with at least one slot (29) therein to form flexible fingers (25a), the boss (25) having flanges (28) which may be formed by an external screw thread adjacent to the outer end (27), and an external hexagonal engagement surface (26) spaced from the outer end (27). The other of the connector members (30) defines a bore (35) having grooves (38) which may be formed by an internal screw thread proportioned to engage the flanges (28) on the boss (25), and a hexagonal engagement portion (36) proportioned to mateably receive and engage the hexagonal engagement surface (26) when the connectors (20 & 30) are brought together.</p> |
