FIGs. 11E illustrate the position and/or angle (e.g., orientation) of one a resection feature 1022 (e.g., single slot 1052) based on patient imaging data. In the illustrated embodiment, the single slot 1052 is positioned with a first side 1108 perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the bone (e.g., a tibia) and a second side 1110 offset from the first side by an angle B. Advantageously, the angle B is determined by a surgeon in a prescription and/or preoperative plan that were used to fabricate the resection guide 1020. The angle B is defined to overcome a condition of the patient and can range between about 1 degree and about 80 degrees. Advantageously, the patient imaging data can be used to recommend a correction angle for angle B, that a surgeon can confirm or adjust as needed.
