Content
FIGs 19A-19C illustrate that the example first resection guide 1822 includes one or more stabilizers 1892 and one or more sights 1894. In the example first resection guide 1822 the bone attachment features 1828 are configured such that holes/openings in the body 1902 are parallel to each other and therefore the pins deployed into these holes are also parallel to each other. Having parallel pins can be advantageous because the parallel pins can enable the first resection guide 1822 to be readily removed by sliding the body 1902 off of the pins. In this manner, the pins can remain in the bone(s) and can serve as reference features. However, the parallel pins can also result in the body 1902 being unstable and moving too much during the osteotomy. For example, the body 1902 may move away from the bone(s) along the pins (a translation referred to as riding up).
