The invention relates to a drill guide and method for providing a drill guide, where the drill guide is for placing a fixation device hole proximate to a bone tunnel in a bone. The drill guide includes a foot for placement in the bone tunnel in the bone and a leg extending from the foot and having a recess. A locator is placed within the recess and, in a retracted position, the locator is inside the leg. The locator is also hingedly connected to the leg such that, in an unretracted position, the locator rotates and extends outwardly from the recess for locating a fixation device hole.

L'invention porte sur un guide foret et une méthode proposant ce guide. Le guide foret est destiné à positionner un trou pour dispositif de fixation à proximité d'un tunnel osseux. Le guide foret comprend un pied permettant le positionnement dans le tunnel osseux et une tige se prolongeant à partir du pied et disposant d'un évidement. Un localisateur est placé à l'intérieur de l'évidement et, en position rétractée, celui-ci se situe à l'intérieur de la tige. Le localisateur est également relié à la tige par une charnière de sorte qu'en position non rétractée, le localisateur effectue une rotation et se prolonge à l'extérieur de l'évidement pour localiser un trou destiné à un dispositif de fixation.
