description An apparatus for use in orthopedic distraction or compression is disclosed. In the illustrated embodiments, two arms are provided that are connected by a rod or bar with a mechanism that enables the arms to be brought toward or away from each other. At the end of each arm, a tip for connecting to a bone implant is provided. The tips are pivotable with respect to the arms, and have an opening with a tab that allows insertion of an implant head having branches defining a channel. Once the tips are appropriately positioned, connected and locked to the bone implants, the mechanism can be operated to move the arms together in compression or apart in distraction.
