Figure 3H illustrates second angle B. In one embodiment, a second cut surface formed by resection using second slot 370 extends posteriorly away from a first cut surface formed by resection using first slot 360. Described another way, in the illustrated embodiment, angle B is an angle between the first plane 378 that includes the first slot 360 and a first cut surface formed by resection using first slot 360 and a third plane 381 that includes the second slot 370 and a second cut surface formed by resection using second slot 370, the third plane 381 extending from the first plane toward the proximal side 312 of the body 310. In certain embodiments, angle B can range between about 0 degrees to about 35 degrees. In certain embodiments, angle B may start at 0 degrees and then increase to a positive number of degrees as illustrated or decrease to a negative number of degrees depending on how a surgeon may prescribe adjustments for a correction.
