    摘要: An alignment guide includes a base, a swing arm for coupling to the base such that the swing arm is movable relative to the base, and a locking device for selectively fixing a position of the swing arm relative to the base. The base defines at least one first hole sized and configured to receive a first fixation element and defines at least one second hole sized and configured to receive a second fixation element. The swing arm extends from a first end to a second end. The second end of the swing arm including a coupling mechanism for coupling another guide to the second end of the swing arm. Methods also are disclosed.

    摘要: A surgical staple for inserting into one or more bone parts comprises a plate, a first screw and a second screw. The plate includes a first end, an opposed second end, a first aperture that is positioned near the first end, and a second aperture that is positioned near the second end. Additionally, the plate is curved along a length of the plate from the first end to the second end. The first screw extends through the first aperture. The second screw extends through the second aperture. Further, the first screw and the second screw are angled toward one another when the surgical staple is in a relaxed configuration.

    摘要: A surgical guide includes a first guide arm extending from a first end to a second end on a first longitudinal axis. The first guide arm defines a first plurality of openings sized and configured to receive a first guide element therethrough. A second guide arm extends from a first end to a second end on a second longitudinal axis. The second guide arm defines a second plurality of openings sized and configured to receive a second guide element therethrough. A pivot element couples the first end of the first guide arm to the first end of the second guide arm such that an angular distance between the first guide arm and the second guide arm can be adjusted in a first plane.
