摘要
A surgical staple insertion system for compressing bone fragments includes a staple and an insertion tool. The staple has first and second legs and an elastically deformable bridge monolithically formed with the first and second legs. In a relaxed configuration, the bridge is curved such that a central region of the bridge is directed away from the first and second legs, and free ends of the first and second legs are positioned closer to one another than are portions of the first and second legs connected to the bridge. The bridge includes engagement portions at each of its first and second end sections that extend away from each other. The insertion tool includes an end defining a cavity configured to receive the engagement portions at the end sections of the bridge to retain the bridge in a deformed configuration with the first and second legs retained parallel to each other.
