Patent abstract
An apparatus for creating minimal skin incisions and soft tissue tunnels, particularly useful in the insertion of transverse or oblique screws through a bone and the holes in a locking nail embedded within the intra-medullary cavity of the bone. A unique surgical tool, as described herein, is used in conjunction with a targeting guide and targeting guide tunnel to create skin and soft-tissue tunnels that are precise, of minimal size, and minimally traumatic for the patient, and very quick and easy for the surgeon to create and to repair.
