Content
As shown, the cutting guide 300 may have a body 310 with a monolithic construction and the general shape of a rectangular prism. The cutting guide 300 may further have a joint alignment feature that helps align the body 310 with the metatarsocuneiform joint between the first cuneiform 210 and the first metatarsus 230. The joint alignment feature may consist of a joint probe 320 that extends from the body 310 and has a blade-like shape. The body 310 may reside on the dorsal surfaces of the first cuneiform 210 and the first metatarsus 230, while the joint probe 320 may protrude into the metatarsocuneiform joint between the first cuneiform 210 and the first metatarsus 230 to provide proper alignment of the body 310 with the metatarsocuneiform joint.
