Content
In the illustrated embodiment, the talus resection guide 824 includes two resection features 826 (resection feature 826a, resection feature 826b). Those of skill in the art will appreciate that a single resection feature 826 can be used instead of two or more resection features 826. In one embodiment, the resection feature 826b can assist a surgeon in resecting hard and/or soft tissue on a medial side of the joint. Such resection can contribute to a successful surgical procedure. In one embodiment, such resection may create clearance on the talus 222 for the talus 222 to fit under a medial malleolus when fused to the tibia 226. In certain embodiments, a resection feature 826 can be included on the lateral side of the talus resection guide 824. Similarly, additional resection features 826 can be used on the tibial resection guide 822 as well.
