Abstract: A surgical implant system includes a surgical implant and at least one fixation device. The surgical implant includes a first side member, a second side member, a distal member and a proximal member. The first side member is disposed in opposed relation relative to the second side member, the first and second side members including distal and proximal ends. The distal member is disposed in opposed, spaced relation relative to the proximal member. The distal member extends across one end of the surgical implant between the first and second side member connecting distal ends of the first and second side members. The proximal member extends across a second end of the surgical implant connecting the proximal ends of the first and second side members. The fixation device is inserted in and advanced through osseous tissue and traverses the openings of the first and second side members.

Abstract: A two-part screw system includes an inner member and a cannulated outer member that may be pre-assembled with an inner member driver and an outer member driver to form a surgical assembly. A method of inserting the two-part screw system includes advancing the inner member into the bone by using the inner member driver, and advancing the outer member into the bone by using the outer member driver. The inner member acts as a guide for the outer member, and eliminates the need for a separate guide wire. The pre-assembled nature of the surgical assembly eliminates the need to sequentially remove and apply drivers and implant parts. The inner member and the outer member are configured to integrate into a substantially solid body when in a final alignment, thus forming a stronger implant than a cannulated screw.
