Content
The window 906 can have a variety of sizes and/or shapes and can be patient-specific or patient-matched. Alternatively, or in addition, the size and/or shape of the window 906 can be determined at least in part by the surgeon which plans to use the resection guide 820b. In certain embodiments, the window 906 is sized and/or shaped to enable visualization of as much of the anatomy of the patient, while maintaining the structural integrity of the body 900, proximal resection feature 902, and/or distal resection feature 904. Advantageously, the window 906 is sized to enable visualization of one or more articular surfaces of one or more bones facing the inferior side 916 of the resection guide 820b. In one embodiment, the window 906 is configured to enable observation of an articular surface and/or an end of both a cuneiform and a metatarsal of a TMT joint.
