Content
The cutter guide 1010 serves to guide a cutting tool as the cutting tool forms the osteotomy. In particular, the cutter guide 1010 is configured to guide a cutting tool in cutting bone along a predefined plane positioned between the first bone attachment feature 1006 and the second bone attachment feature 1008. The cutter guide 1010 guides the cutting tool as the cutter guide 1010 rotates about a pivot axis 1014. In certain embodiments, the pivot axis 1014 is an axis that is transverse to a longitudinal axis of the fasteners 1012 used to secure the first bone attachment feature 1006 and second bone attachment feature 1008. In one embodiment, the pivot axis 1014 is coupled to the first bone attachment feature 1006 and the second bone attachment feature 1008. The pivot axis 1014 is the axis about which the cutter guide 1010 pivots or rotates as the cutter guide 1010 guides the cutting tool to cut within a predetermined plane.
