ABSTRACT:
A holding and fixing mechanism for an orthopedic surgery makes use of a holding plug to fasten together a U-shaped clamping block, a wedging element and a rod body. The clamping block is provided with two through holes capable of cooperating with a wedging portion of the wedging element and the holding plug so as to form an appropriate angle as required between the wedging element and the U-shaped clamping block. The fixation position of the wedging element can be easily adjusted. The holding and fixing mechanism is attained by the knurl-fastening method in place of the conventional screw-fastening method.
