Abstract

A surgical kit for inserting a biological material into a portion of the body by a minimally invasive technique has several components which are manually operated using a universal handle (50). The kit includes a docking needle (10) used as a guide for placing a cannula (15) in a body. The handle (50) has a spring loaded hinged connection for temporarily attaching to the other components and which locks upon release of compression.
