Content

In one embodiment, a technician may provide a patient-specific system 606 that includes one or more complementary components and one or more resection guides, which may be patient-specific. The technician may also provide a preoperative plan. These may be provided to an end user (e.g., surgeon) either directly or by accessing the apparatus 602 remotely. The end user may review the preoperative plan and/or the components of the patient-specific system 606 (e.g., resection guides) and may approve of the patient-specific system 606 or may request changes. In certain embodiments, these changes may include the addition of one or more added bone engagement features, one or more resection guides, a change in a trajectory for a bone attachment feature, a change in trajectory for an osteotomy, an addition of openings in a guide to coincide with openings needed for a fixation system, as well as a plurality of other possible changes to the patient-specific system 606.  The technician may then make the requested changes and present a revised patient-specific system 606 for the surgeon to review again. Next, the surgeon may approve of the revised patient-specific system 606 and/or request additional changes.
