Content

FIG. 14B illustrates that a surgeon has provided user instructions 604 for including an additional bone engagement feature 830d. Specifically, the surgeon has requested that the body be extended on the lateral side, that the body include a bone engagement surface on its posterior side to engage bone of the talus 222 and that the talus resection feature 866 be configured to include a slot that extends in a plantar direction on the lateral side. In this embodiment, the surgeon may have requested the added bone engagement feature 830d to facilitate placement of the talus resection guide 824 on the talus 222. Alternatively, or in addition, the added bone engagement feature 830d may have been included to facilitate an osteotomy of the lateral side of the talus 222. For example, a surgeon may decide to resect a lateral extending process 223 of the talus 222. Advantageously, a surgeon can use embodiments of the present disclosure to obtain a resection guide 1404 that is patient-specific and customized to the needs and/or desires of the surgeon in order to provide improved patient care.
