Zusammenfassung: | A screw guide assembly includes a guide body extending along a central longitudinal axis. The guide body has a proximal end portion having an attachment face extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and a distal end portion having a screw support member extending away from the longitudinal axis. The screw support member is configured to allow for the insertion of a screw at an angle oblique relative to the longitudinal axis. A wire guide is removably inserted into the screw support member. A method of inserting a screw using the assembly is also disclosed. |
