A screw delivery system and method are disclosed for use in a variety of surgical indications. The screw delivery system generally comprises an outer cannula, a guide, and various interventional devices such as bone drill bits and taps as well as an implant driver for inserting a screw. The method disclosed varies by indication, but is ordinarily intended for use as a minimally invasive procedure which is a combination of percutaneous and open techniques wherein a small midline incision is made over a surgical site and the screw delivery system provides a percutaneous portal through an incision distant from the small midline incision over the surgical site. |
