FIG. 16A illustrates one example of a resection guide 1020b coupled to the bones using bone attachment features 1024 that include fasteners 1010, e.g., K-wires. In one embodiment, a surgeon has formed an incision down to the cortical bone surface with a medial approach. In the illustrated embodiment, the resection guide 1020b may be configured (e.g., using the bone engagement surface 1026) to seat on the tibia 224. The surgeon has deployed two or more fasteners 1010 (e.g., K-wires) through the holes of the bone attachment features 1024. The alignment guide 1046 is shown with a vertical K-wire to confirm alignment with the longitudinal axis of the tibia 224.
