A method for securing a first bone segment to a second bone segment, the method comprising the steps of: positioning the first bone segment against the second bone segment, forming a first bore through the first bone segment and into the second bone segment, and forming a second bore into the second bone segment so that the second bore intersects the first bore; positioning a locking member within the second bore so that an opening in the locking member is aligned with the first bore; and positioning an interlocking screw within the first bore so that the interlocking screw passes through the opening in the locking member and makes a locking engagement therewith, whereby to lock the interlocking screw with the locking member and thereby secure the first bone segment to the second bone segment. A system for securing a first bone segment to a second bone segment, wherein a first bore is formed through the first bone segment and into the second bone segment, and a second bore is formed into the second bone segment so that the second bore intersects the first bore of the first bone segment, the system comprising: a locking member for positioning within the second bore so that an opening in the locking member is aligned with the first bore; and an interlocking screw for positioning within the first bore so that the interlocking screw may be passed through the opening in the locking member and make a locking engagement therewith, whereby to lock the interlocking screw with the locking member and thereby secure the first bone segment to the second bone segment.
