Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the distraction of bones or bone segments. The device comprises an anchoring screw having a longitudinal axis, a screw tip, a screw end for rotatably driving the anchoring screw, a threaded shank which adjoins the screw tip and has a screw thread, and a screw shank adjoining the screw end; and a distraction sleeve axially displaceable on the screw shank including a rear end, a front end, a through-bore extending coaxially therebetween, an external thread adjoining the front end, and a coupler portion formed in the rear end for receiving a driving tool. The anchoring screw comprises a collar positioned between the threaded shank and the screw shank that radially projects at least from the screw shank and which serves as an axial stop for the front end of the distraction sleeve when the distraction sleeve is positioned over the screw shank.

Abstract: A device for fixing a point relative to the human body with a pointer is adjustable in three directions. The end indicates the position of the point to be fixed. A frame with three feet can be mounted on pins anchored in the facial part of the skull.

Abstract: The invention describes a model operating instrument for upper jaw osteotomy, with a basic frame on which it is possible to adjust the position of the two temporo-maxillary articular cups; from the side, there protrudes into the osteotomy plane a universally mounted disc which is rotatable in its own plane and which is displaceable in three directions at right-angles to one another, on which disc it is possible to fix an upper jaw model keyed with a lower jaw model.
