Content
In one embodiment, the bone attachment features 724 are configured to enable fasteners 710 used with the bone attachment features 724 to extend into one or more bones of the patient. Specifically, the fasteners 710 can be deployed into the bone attachment features 724 and will thereby show a surgeon what the trajectory will be for an osteotomy formed using the resection features 722. In certain embodiments, this can be accomplished because a hole 764 for a bone attachment feature 724 may extend through the body 732 to guide the fasteners 710 along a trajectory that is parallel to the trajectory of the resection feature 722 (e.g., first trajectory 902 and/or second trajectory 904) for the osteotomy that the cutting tool will cut. Of course, this parallel relationship can be implemented in one or more of the bone attachment features 724 of the resection guide 720a.
