An orthopaedic skeletal joint demonstration aid for demonstrating surgical orthopaedic techniques comprises a first facsimile bone portion (2), a second facsimile bone portion (3), and adjustable holding mechanism (5) for holding the first facsimile bone portion (2) in a required anatomical orientation with respect to the second facsimile bone portion (3) for the purposes of a surgical orthopaedic procedure. The holding mechanism (5) is capable of being locked in position so as to orientate the first facsimile bone portion (2) at the required angle. This enables the facsimile bone portions (2) and (3) to be correctly aligned for carrying out a required surgical procedure, and for the alignment to be subsequently changed for a further surgical procedure. |
