Content

FIGs. 14A-C illustrate different views of a stage of performing a surgical procedure. FIG. 14A illustrates an anterior perspective view of a foot and ankle including a tibia 224, fibula 226, talus 228, navicular 218, first metatarsal 208, and a second metatarsal 210. FIG. 14 illustrates one example of a distal tibia resection guide 1420a and a distal fibula resection guide 1410a coupled to the bones using bone attachment features that include fasteners 1010, e.g., K-wires. In one embodiment, a surgeon has formed a medial incision near the medial malleolus with a medial approach and a lateral incision near the lateral malleolus with a lateral approach. The surgeon has formed the incisions down to the cortical bone surface of both a medial surface of the distal end of the tibia 224 and a lateral surface of the distal end of the fibula 226. Further, the surgeon has cut, or moved to the side, soft tissue covering the cortical bone surface of the bones sufficient to seat a bone engagement surface 1026 of the distal tibia resection guide 1420a onto the cortical bone surface and the bone engagement surface 1026 of the distal fibula resection guide 1410a onto the cortical bone surface.
