Abstract
An assembly includes a surgical device (10) including a distal interface member (12) and a proximal handle (14), the distal interface member (12) including a connecting element (16) for connecting to a surgical tool (18), and a K-wire (20) that passes through a central passageway of the surgical device (10) distally through the distal interface member (12) into a lumen of the surgical tool (18). A wire depth measurement tool (30) includes a handle interface member (32) that assembles to the handle (14) and one or more graduated scales (36) that extend proximally from the handle interface member (32). The graduated scales (36) include depth graduations for indicating an amount a tip of the K-wire (20) protrudes from a distal end of the surgical tool (18).
