Abstract
A surgical tool adaptor includes a distal interface member and a handle. The distal interface member includes a connecting element for connecting to a surgical tool. A K-wire connector is disposed in a central passageway for receiving therethrough a K-wire. The K-wire connector includes a locking element for locking the K-wire. A clutch mechanism is operatively connected to the distal interface member and to the K-wire connector, wherein in a first orientation of the clutch mechanism, the distal interface member and the K-wire connector move together, and in a second orientation of the clutch mechanism, the distal interface member is declutched from the K-wire connector, so that in the first orientation movement of the handle moves the distal interface member and the K-wire connector together, and in the second orientation the distal interface member and the K-wire connector move independently of each other.
