<p>DRILL GUIDES AND INSERTERS FOR BONE PLATES HAVING HOOK A system for assisting a surgeon in implanting hook plate-type bone plates includes a cannulated multiple barreled drill guide (100), a cannulated inserter/impactor (140), and a cannulated fastener coupling the inserter/impactor to a bone plate. The multiple barreled drill guide (100) facilitates the drilling of at least two parallel holes at the distal end of a bone at the correct position and angle of entry, and includes a body and two drill guide channels coupled to the body in substantially parallel orientation relative to each other, with a guide pin aperture disposed between and substantially parallel to the drill guide tubes. The inserter/impactor likewise includes a central channel accommodating the same guide pin employed to place and align the multiple barreled drill guide (100).
