A device which is used to immobilize a threaded support pin (21) in relation to a fixed element (1, 34), the pin being screwed into a bone part (3, 3a, 3b) along an axis. A locking sleeve (13) can be solidly screwed to the fixed element (1, 34, 7) and is provided with an axial bore (19) in order to receive the pin (21). The axis (zz′) of the sleeve screw thread is angularly and/or laterally offset in relation to the axis (yy′) of the pin (21) when the latter is in place on the bone part (3, 3a, 3b), and/or the axis of the bore (19) of the locking sleeve (13) is angularly and/or laterally offset in relation to the screw threaded axis (6).
Device for immobilizing with respect to a fixed element a threaded support pin screwed in a bone part along an axis, comprising a threaded locking sleeve which is connectable by screwing of the fixed element, which is provided with an axial bore which receives the pin, the axis of the threading of this sleeve is offset in relation to the axis of the pin when the pin is in place on the bone part, and/or the axis of the bore of the locking sleeve is offset in relation to the axis of the threading, wherein the fixed element is constituted by a support receiving intermediate pieces which are mounted dispacably and rotationally along a profile of the support, fixing means ensuring the immobilisation of the intermediate pieces with respect to the fixed element, and wherein said support is constituted by a rail of which an internal profile is of hemispherical shape and whose base is pierced with a longitudinal slot adapted to be traversed by the threaded pins,
