Abstract:
A surgical instrument assembly includes a frame system, and a surgical tool engageable with the frame system. The frame system is adapted for providing a surgical tool attachment and articulation locus that is maintained during the course of a surgical procedure to direct a fixed and repeatable delivery path for introduction and manipulation of one or more surgical instruments and implants at a surgical site in or on the patient's anatomy. The delivery path can be substantially curvilinear along an arc that is defined by a radius of curvature and length defined by the surgical tool, and a predetermined range of articulation of the tool at the articulation locus.

Claim (Index 7):
A surgical instrument assembly according to  claim 5 , wherein adjustment and locking of the support bar connector effectively fixes in space the position of the adjustable pivot assembly, and thereby fixes the point of attachment of the surgical tool, and wherein the position of the pivot assembly is selected to direct a tissue manipulation implement portion of the surgical tool into contact with a target site in or on a surgical subject on the surgical support surface.
