A surgical apparatus includes a combination of a drill guide and a bone fixation device. The bone fixation device includes a plurality of screw receiving apertures extending therethrough. The drill guide includes a top face and a plurality of drill apertures extending from the top face through the drill guide. The drill apertures of the drill guide are arranged such that the drill apertures can be separated into two groups by an imaginary dividing line, and, if a separation between the two groups in the plane of the top face and normal to the dividing line were increased by a distance d, then the arrangement of the drill apertures would match, or otherwise be aligned with, that of the screw receiving apertures.
