Content
FIG. 21D illustrates one example of how the first resection feature 1864 and/or second resection feature 1866 can be configured to form a curved osteotomy and an angled curved osteotomy. In the illustrated embodiment, the first resection guide 1822 includes a first resection feature 1864 that guides a cutting tool to resect at least part of a talus 222 at a second angle 1898. Note that the second angle 1898 is perpendicular to the mechanical axis 880 (and parallel to a medial-lateral axis ML). The first resection feature 1864 enables a surgeon to form a curved osteotomy that can be referred to as a “straight cut”. The curved osteotomy curves within the sagittal plane 262 and extends into the bone parallel with the ML axis.
