  • Patent number: 9968368
    Abstract: A drill guide has a main body in which a drill insertion hole is formed and plural projection portions to be inserted into plural bone tunnels. The plural projection portions project forward from the main body parallel with the center line of the drill insertion hole, a virtual drill insertion hole which extends from the drill insertion hole of the main body is formed between the plural projection portions parallel with their center lines by cutting out confronting portions of the plural projection portions, and the length of at least one of the drill insertion hole and the virtual drill insertion hole is 5 mm or more. The drill guide can guide a drill so as to be correctly between plural bone tunnels bored through a living body bone without causing axis deviation so that a link bone tunnel for connecting the plural bone tunnels can be formed between them in the same direction as their direction.
