Content
In one embodiment, FIG. 25E illustrates a stage in which a first resection guide 2222 and a second resection guide 2224 have been removed. A curved osteotomy (e.g., first osteotomy) has been formed at or near a proximal end of the talus 222 and an angled curved osteotomy (e.g., second osteotomy) has been formed at or near a distal end of the tibia 226. The curved osteotomy and the angled curved osteotomy are reduced at the resection interface 884. Advantageously, a minimal amount of bone of the talus 222 and/or the tibia 226 has been removed and a stable, complete reduction is achieved. Note reference features, fixation pins, permanent and/or temporary fixation is omitted from the view in FIG. 25E but may be included in certain embodiments and/or may be added to hold the reduction place for healing and fusion.
