Content
In the illustrated embodiment, one landmark registration feature 728 may extend from the medial side 744 or the first bone attachment feature 766. Advantageously, the landmark registration feature 728 can provide a surgeon with confidence and assurance in the placement and positioning of the resection guide 1220 on a bone because the landmark registration feature 728 can be configured to engage with a particular landmark on the bone or other patient anatomy (e.g., a projection or a depression or cavity). Alternatively, or in addition, the landmark registration feature 728 can include a contoured bone engagement surface that can further facilitate registration of the landmark registration feature 728 and/or resection guide 1220 with the bone. In this manner, a surgeon can be assured intraoperatively that the resection guide 1220 is being positioned in accordance with a preoperative plan.
