Abstract

In an orthopedic surgical holding device for a correcting rod, having a bone plate which can be fastened on the bone, a receiver device for the correcting rod and a fixing device maintaining the correcting rod in the receiver device. An optimal transfer of the occurring forces and moments is achieved in that the bone plate can be fixed independently of the receiver device (10) and has a bearing for the receiver device, and in that the receiver device can be pushed into the bearing from the proximal side and in the course of this extends through the bone plate and extends beyond it on the distal side for receiving the correcting rod.
