Content
In a step 108, the model(s) may be used to manufacture patient-specific instrumentation and/or implants. This may be done via any known manufacturing method, including casting, forging, milling, additive manufacturing, and/or the like. Additive manufacturing may provide unique benefits, as the model may be directly used to manufacture the necessary instrumentation and/or implants (without the need to generate molds, tool paths, and/or the like beforehand). Such instrumentation may optionally include a cutting guide with the bone apposition surface and one or more guide features as described above.
