Content
Referring now to FIGs. 2E, 18, and 19A-G, a first resection guide 1822 includes a first resection feature 1864. The first resection feature 1864 is configured to guide a cutting tool for form a curved osteotomy. The curved osteotomy is curved when viewed and/or measured within a sagittal plane 262 of an ankle of a patient. In particular, the curved osteotomy is formed by a pattern of a plurality of openings arranged in a curve within the body of the first resection guide 1822. In the illustrated embodiment, the pattern is a downward curve shape. Where the first resection guide 1822 is used on a proximal end of a bone, this pattern results in a convex curve shape on the end of the bone resected using the first resection guide 1822.
