A method using a guide to assist in insertion of a helicoidal member in a target biological tissue. The method includes abutting a substantially longitudinally extending portion of the guide against a target tissue exposed surface with the helicoidal member mounted thereto so that at least a portion of the guide is inserted in a helicoidal member passageway substantially parallel to a helicoidal member longitudinal axis of the helicoidal member; adhering the substantially longitudinally extending portion of the guide to the target tissue exposed surface with the helicoidal member longitudinal axis substantially parallel to the target tissue exposed surface; and advancing the helicoidal member in the target biological tissue in a substantially helicoidal movement with the guide remaining substantially fixed relative to the target biological tissue.
A surgical method using a guide to assist in insertion of a helicoidal member in a target biological tissue, the target biological tissue defining a target tissue exposed surface, the helicoidal member defining a helicoidal member longitudinal axis and substantially longitudinally opposed helicoidal member proximal and distal ends, a helicoidal member passageway extending longitudinally between the helicoidal member proximal and distal ends, the guide being substantially elongated and defining a guide tip, the method comprising:
