Abstract: Disclosed is a clamp which comprises a pair of hook-shaped fixed prongs formed at the distal end of an elongated clamp body. Mounted longitudinally in the clamp body is a moveable prong which reciprocates in relation to the distal end of the clamp body and the fixed prongs. The inside surfaces of the hook-shaped fixed prongs face the moveable prong and are also disposed so that the moveable prong moves in a direction lying between the pair of fixed prongs. A pair of arms is used to control the clamp, with one arm connected to the moveable prong while the other is fixedly connected with the clamp body. To engage a sesamoid bone, the moveable prong is moved toward the two fixed prongs thereby clamping the bone between the three prongs. The arrangement of the prongs results in the bone being hooked and cradled.
