Content
In certain embodiments, the landmark registration feature 1004 may be referred to as a lateral metatarsal tab, at least in part because the landmark registration feature 1004 is configured to engage with a lateral surface of a base of a metatarsal. In another embodiment, the landmark registration feature 1004 may include a plurality of planes for additional surfaces of the landmark registration feature 1004. These planes can be oriented in a variety of directions and can be configured to be patient-specific surfaces, patient-matched surfaces, or the like. Advantageously, a landmark registration feature 1004 having a plurality of surfaces can enable fabrication of instrumentation (e.g., resection guides) that are further tailored, configured, and/or designed to meet the needs of a particular patient and/or user.
