Content
FIG. 12C illustrates an alternative view of the surgical procedure similar to the stage in FIG. 12A. However, the tibia 226 and fibula 228 are transparent. FIG. 12C illustrates how a surgeon may use the shaft 878, alignment guide 874, and/or one or more of the resection guard 870 to check and/or confirm the position, placement, alignment, and/or trajectory that cuts using the resection guides 820 will have in the bones of the patient. In the illustrated embodiment, the mechanical axis 880 may be perpendicular to an anterior-posterior axis 888. In certain embodiments, the surgeon may choose to position and/or orient the resection guard 870 so that they can serve as alignment and/or positioning guides during the surgical procedure.
