Content
The sleeve 422 includes an axial through passage, proximal handle portion 424 and a distal leading end 426 forming a tapered tip. The axial through passage is sized to guide a guide wire (e.g., a “K-wire”) along the cross fixation insertion axis 420. The sleeve may be translated along the axis 420 relative to the guide body 402 to position the leading end 426 at a desired spacing from a bone.
