Content
In certain embodiments, the pivoting resection guide 1002 is used for dissecting one or more bones. For example, in a bunion surgical procedure a surgeon can use a pivoting resection guide 1002 to resect or dissect a distal end of a cuneiform (e.g., medial cuneiform 202). Alternatively, or in addition, the surgeon may use the same pivoting resection guide 1002, or a different pivoting resection guide 1002, to resect or dissect a proximal end of a metatarsal 208 (e.g., first metatarsal 208). Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure can be used for surgical procedures on a single bone, on multiple bones, and at or across the a joint of a patient.
