Patent ID: 10568662

Abstract:
An orthopedic clamp for affixing at least two fixation members relative to each other is disclosed. The clamp includes a first clamp comprising first outer and inner jaws that define first clamping surfaces that form a first recess, and a second clamp comprising second outer and inner jaws that define second clamping surfaces that form a second recess. The clamps also include a post extending from the second outer jaw and through the second inner jaw, the first inner jaw and the first outer jaw. The post defines a clamping axis, and the second recess defines an axis that intersects the clamping axis. The clamp further includes a clamping nut threadably coupled to the post configured to exert a clamping force to the first and second clamps to fix at least one of a first fixation member within the first recess and a second fixation member within the second recess.
