Content
The cut between the first bone segment 1840 and the second bone segment 1842 may be carried out virtually (for example, in CAD) on a model of the calcaneus 1806 obtained from a CT scan or other imaging of the patient’s foot. Thus, the optimal realignment of the posterior end of the calcaneus 1806 can be obtained. If desired, a patient-specific cutting guide, or cutting guide 1843, may be generated in order to facilitate resection of the calcaneus 1806.
