A retaining device for fixedly holding a surgical instrument in a predetermined spatial orientation during surgery comprising an arm having a ball-and-socket joint for grasping the surgical instrument, another arm having a ball-and-socket joint for securing the device to a stationary base and an intermediate pin joint which connects the arms and acts in conjunction with the ball-and-socket joints to allow placement of the surgical instrument in a desired position. The retaining device further comprised a means at the pin joint for simultaneously tightening all joints of the device after placement of the surgical instrument and thereby fixing the position of the surgical instrument.
