Abstract
A stylet feeder for connection to a surgical tool includes a base for attaching to a surgical tool, the base having a platform and a skirt extending distally from the platform. The stylet feeder also includes an extension protruding proximally from the platform of the base, the extension having a proximal end housing a pawl, the pawl having a distal end with a threaded portion. The base and the extension define a passage extending in a proximal-distal direction such that the stylet feeder is cannulated for accepting a stylet therethrough.
