Zusammenfassung: | A bone plug insertion instrument (1) is proposed for inserting a bone plug (70) into a target bone tunnel. The bone plug insertion instrument (1) comprises (a) an elongated housing (10) defining a first central axis, and comprising an at least partially tube-shaped insertion portion, and a handling portion, the at least partially tube-shaped insertion portion (11) defining, substantially orthogonally to the first central axis, an inner cross-sectional area at least partially surrounded by a bone engaging end surface of the at least partially tube-shaped insertion portion; and (b) an elongated plunger (40) comprising an actuating portion and a bone plug driving portion with a bone plug engaging end surface (43) having an engaging area of 20% to 80% of the inner cross-sectional area. The elongated plunger (40) is configured to move relative to the elongated housing (10) between a first position and a second, different position. |
