Content
Advantageously, fasteners deployed in holes 940 of the first bone attachment feature 908 and/or second bone attachment feature 910 can serve more than one purpose. First, the fasteners may retain the resection guide 820c in place during formation of the osteotomies. Second, the fasteners may guide a surgeon regarding the planned trajectories for an osteotomy through the proximal resection feature 902 and/or distal resection feature 904. The surgeon can use the deployed fasteners as a proxy for where the osteotomies in the resection features will be.
