ABSTRACT:
A guide tool for directing a surgical device into attachment with a bone segment includes a tubular portion having an axial bore extending from a proximal end to a distal end thereof for guiding the surgical device therethrough. A transversely extending pressure plate is affixed to the tubular portion at its distal end for applying finger pressure thereon to stabilize the bone segment while the surgical device is guided through the axial bore into attachment with the bone segment. The guide tool protects a surgeon's fingers from the surgical device and from the jagged surface of the bone segment.
