Content
In certain embodiments, the medial surface 1006 is a bone engagement surface configured to engage a lateral surface of the base of the metatarsal. In certain embodiments, the bone engagement surface of the medial surface 1006 may be defined based at least in part on a model of a metatarsal of a specific patient. When the resection guide 820c is in use and positioned in a desired position, the medial surface 1006 with its bone engagement surface may contact and/or engage with at least a portion of a lateral surface of the base of a metatarsal of the TMT joint. In this manner, the landmark registration feature 1004 facilitates engagement and placement of the resection guide 820c in a predetermined position.
