    摘要: One or more arrays of flexible, disposable, bone plate sizers with corresponding arrays of permanent bone plates, systems using these bone plate sizers and/or templates, and methodologies using these bone plate sizers and/or templates are embodied. Each array of disposable bone plate sizers has a plurality of sizers having differing configurations and sizes, each of the disposable sizers in a given array corresponding to a particular bone screw size. Each of the disposable bone plate sizers in a given array are mounted upon and easily detachable from a frame member. The disposable bone plate sizers may be malleable such that may be manipulated by the surgeon into the desired three-dimensional shape to match the contour of the bone segments to be joined, thereby providing a template to shape the corresponding permanent bone plate.
