Content

FIGURE 6A illustrates an example separation indicator 124 of a gap gauge 100 that can be positioned within an opening 106 between a first bone (See FIGURE 1A) and a second bone (See FIGURE 1A). Once positioned, and the separator 122 is actuated to a desired displacement, a user can read the displacement by reading the number in the top-most position on the separation indicator 124. For example, in FIGURE 6A the displacement is nine millimeters. For example, in FIGURE 6B the displacement is fifteen millimeters. For example, in FIGURE 6C the displacement is nineteen millimeters.
