First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A surgical instrument comprising: a first implant support being connectable with a fastener; a second implant support being connectable with a fastener; and a track disposed at a selected trajectory to orient translation of at least one of the implant supports along the trajectory. 2 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the track includes an inner surface that defines a slot configured for translation of the second implant support to facilitate compression. 3 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the track includes an inner surface that defines a cavity configured for disposal of the second implant support for translation of the second implant support relative to the first implant support. 4 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first implant support is fixedly connected with the track to define a rotational axis point along a sagittal plane. 5 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a clip that mounts the first implant support with the track. 6 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first implant support includes a cavity configured to receive a fastener and the second implant support includes a cavity configured to receive a fastener. 7 . A surgical instrument as recited claim 1 , wherein the track includes an arcuate slot. 8 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the track includes indicia displaying an angle of rotation. 9 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first implant support includes an extender. 10 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the second implant support includes an extender. 11 . A surgical instrument as recited in claim 1 , wherein the track includes a lock configured to fix the second implant support in a position relative to the first implant support.
