Content

The opening of the proximal resection feature 758 and/or the opening of the distal resection feature 762 has a width and/or length large enough to accommodate, or accept, a cutting element of a cutting tool. In one embodiment, the opening of the proximal resection feature 758 is configured to guide and/or enable a cutting tool to form a first osteotomy into, and/or through, the bone. Advantageously, the first osteotomy tracks, follows, and/or is aligned with the first trajectory 1010. In one embodiment, the opening of the distal resection feature 762 is configured to guide and/or enable a cutting tool to form a second osteotomy into, and/or through, the bone. Advantageously, the second osteotomy tracks, follows, and/or is aligned with the second trajectory 1012. Thus, a surgeon operating the cutting tool within the opening of the proximal resection feature 758 and the distal resection feature 762 can readily form a first osteotomy and a second osteotomy that matches a design that may have been set out in a model of the resection guide 720a and/or a model of the patient’s bone(s).
