Abstract
Surgical constructs, assemblies and methods of elbow repair and reconstruction. A center of rotation guide has specific dimensions configured to be secured on either the lateral or medial side of the elbow. At one end, the guide is provided with a plurality of full concentric through-holes (circles of different diameters) with bisecting lines every 90 degrees to identify the center of rotation on the lateral and medial epicondyle. At another end, the guide is provided with a linear pattern of through-holes or apertures located about the centerline of the guide. The linear pattern of through-holes identifies the attachment point on the ulnar tuberosity. The concentric and linear pattern through-holes of the guide are sized to receive instrumentation such as K-wire guides and/or drill guides. One or more spikes or tines are provided on the bottom of the guide for stabilization during use.
