Abstract
A surgical assembly, a stabilisation plate and methods are disclosed. The surgical assembly comprises: a jig (100) comprising a body having a tissue-engaging surface shaped to be received by tissue to be re-orientated by a correction factor, said body defining a plurality of alignment apertures, said plurality of alignment apertures being orientated to be parallel with respect to each other on application of said correction factor. In this way, it is possible to determine from the jig itself when the desired correction factor, rotation or displacement has been applied correctly because the alignment apertures become parallel, thereby avoiding the need for additional operative measurement and/or imaging.
