Abstract: The surgical support system may include a primary telescoping support, secondary telescoping support supported from the primary telescoping support and configured for telescopically mounting a surgical tool thereto, such that telescoping of the primary support repositions the secondary telescoping support; and a positioning joint disposed between the primary and secondary telescoping supports for universally positioning and locking the secondary telescoping support with respecting to the primary telescoping support.

Abstract: A surgical support system including a primary telescoping support; and a secondary telescoping support that is telescopically mounted to the primary support and is configured for telescopically mounting a surgical tool thereto, such that such that telescoping of the secondary support with respect to the primary support repositions the secondary telescoping support. The secondary support is mounted to the primary support telescopably along a first telescoping axis and is configured for mounting the surgical tool telescopably along a second telescoping axis that is oriented at a non-parallel angle to the first telescoping axis. The secondary support includes a first mounting portion; a second mounting portion configured for telescopically mounting the surgical tool; and an articulable joint disposed for adjusting the angle between the first and second telescoping axes. The articulable joint is releasably lockable for locking the angle.
