主权项 1. A bone coupling device for coupling a first bone piece to a second bone piece, the device comprising: a first component comprising a first cavity, a first indentation extending from an outer surface of the first component including at least one aperture extending into the first cavity, and a first stem portion for coupling with the first bone piece; a second component comprising a second stem portion for coupling with the second bone piece and an axially extending connector portion angularly offset from the second stem portion and configured to be positioned within the first cavity, the connector portion including a plurality of axially disposed second indentations; and a coupling member including at least one knob, the coupling member being positioned within the first indentation of the first component and the at least one knob being positioned within the at least one aperture and extending into the first cavity, wherein, in a first orientation of the first and second components with the connector portion of the second component positioned within the first cavity of the first component, the at least one knob is at least partially retracted from the first cavity and abuts an outer surface of the connector portion, and wherein, in a second orientation of the first and second components with the connector portion of the first component positioned within the first cavity of the first component, the coupling member portion is in a contracted state as compared to the first orientation such that the least one knob is positioned within at least one of the second indentations and thereby coupling the first and second components.
