Content
In addition, an angled curved osteotomy extends into a bone at an angle that is not perpendicular to a long axis (e.g., mechanical axis 880 of a bone). In the illustrated embodiment, the angled curved osteotomy may extend into a tibia at first angle 1896 that is not perpendicular to a long axis of the tibia 226 (e.g., mechanical axis 880 of the tibia 226). In one embodiment, the first angle 1896 is measured within a frontal plane 264. In particular, the first angle 1896 can be measured in relation to a horizontal medial-lateral axis ML within the frontal plane 264. In certain embodiments, the first angle 1896 can range from 1 degree to 88 degrees and can be extend from the ML axis in either a dorsal direction or a plantar direction.
