    摘要: An aiming device for targeted drilling of a hole into bone includes a slot hole extending through the aiming device, the slot hole being configured to receive a guide sleeve therein at different locations therein and at different angles each of which corresponds with one of the locations along a longitudinal extension of the slot hole. The aiming device can be positioned relative to a bone plate using a positioning device including a base having a guide hole extending therethrough from a first side of the base to a second side of the base. The guide hole is formed as an elongated hole and is configured to receive the guide sleeve therein at different angles relative to the positioning device.

    摘要: A spinal plate selection and positioning system is provided for use in a spinal fusion procedure. The system may comprise an elongated guide member that is removably securable to an interbody cage by a holding rod. An interbody plate may be aligned and positioned above the interbody cage installed in a disc space. A drill guide may also be aligned and positioned above the interbody plate. The drill guide may be utilized to drill pilot holes in the vertebrae defining the disc space. Fasteners to secure the interbody plate may also by installed using the drill guide. The use of the guide member ensures that the interbody plate is properly aligned and positioned with respect to the interbody cage.
