Content
FIG. 23 illustrates one example of a cutting guide 2200 coupled to the bones using a proximal bone attachment feature 2252 and a distal bone attachment feature 2254. In the illustrated embodiment, the proximal bone attachment feature 2252 includes at least one hole 2250 and a fastener and the distal bone attachment feature 2254 includes at least one hole 2250 and a fastener. In FIG. 23 the fasteners are K-wires. Advantageously, the proximal bone attachment feature 2252 and the distal bone attachment feature 2254 each include at least two holes 2250, each with a K-wire passing through the hole 2250 and into bone facing the inferior side 2222. Using two holes 2250 and two fasteners ensures a stable coupling between the cutting guide 2200 and the bone(s). Advantageously, in certain embodiments, the two holes 2250 of the proximal bone attachment feature 2252 and distal bone attachment feature 2254 are align such that inserted K-wires are parallel to each other. Among other benefits, parallel K-wires of each of the proximal bone attachment feature 2252 and distal bone attachment feature 2254 prevent the cutting guide 2200 from pivoting around one of the K-wires of a proximal bone attachment feature 2252 or a distal bone attachment feature 2254.
