Content
FIGs 13A and 13B illustrate an example of the pivoting resection guide 1002 as a first-class lever in action. The example illustrates the pivoting resection guide 1002 attached to a medial side of bone 1304. The handle 1004 is moved counterclockwise direction 1028 (e.g., dorsally) and the lever pivots about pivot axis 1014. As the cutter guide 1010 pivots about the pivot axis 1014, the distal end of the cutting tool 1026 moves counterclockwise in direction 1030 (e.g., plantarly) and removes parts of a bone 1304. By operating the cutting tool 1026 and pivoting the cutting tool 1026 within the cutter guide 1010, a user can dissect or resect the bone 1304 in the path of the cutting section 1222 of the cutting tool 1026 between the first bone attachment feature 1006 and the second bone attachment feature 1008.
