Content
FIG. 7D illustrates a bone probe 216 having a distal end that comes to a sharp point and is connected to and/or formed with the shaft 210. The bone probe 216 may include a plurality of threads or flutes on the external surface of the bone probe 216. The threads or flutes can be configured to cut into bone such that rotation of the bone probe 216 can cause the bone probe 216 to drill down through the cortical surface and into the bone. In this manner, a surgeon may rotate the bone probe 216 either manually, or with a powered driver, to penetrate the cortical bone at a trajectory angle provided by the surgical device 200c.
