Content
This shaping may be accomplished by custom-designing the implant 810 for the patient, using the same models (for example, from CT scans) of the first metatarsal 208 and the medial cuneiform 202 that were used to generate the cutting guide 300. Thus, the implant 810 may have a shape that provides secure attachment and/or fusion between the first metatarsal 208 and the medial cuneiform 202 while avoiding proud edges or other protruding features that could otherwise interfere with surrounding tissues.
