Content
Those of skill in the art will appreciate that the exemplary system 900 may include a resection guide 920 designed for a particular patient and their specific bone condition. For example, event of significant loss of bone or the lack of bone with a desirable level of density and/or structural integrity, the fasteners 910, resection guides 920, and/or complementary components 930 can be strategically designed and placed on a patient’s foot to remove pathological bone and also be used to strategically place bone void fillers such allograft, 3D printed constructs (metallic, synthetic bone or biological), and the like. In this manner, a very patient-specific solution can be realized that may involve aspects of various surgical procedures but can be done with high precision and accuracy because the patient-specific instrumentation has been developed, designed, manufactured beforehand and is used to facilitate that realization of the planned correction during the procedure.
