A surgical instrument includes a lock including an inner surface defining a cavity and a locking surface. A holding element is positioned within the cavity and includes an inner surface defining a passageway. A longitudinal element is positioned within the passageway and the cavity. The surgical instrument includes a first orientation in which a distal end of the holding element is spaced apart from the locking surface and the longitudinal element is translatable relative to the holding element and a second orientation in which the distal end of the holding element engages the locking surface and the longitudinal element is fixed relative to the holding element. Systems and methods are disclosed.
