Content
In some embodiments, one or more additional procedures may be carried out, in addition to or in the alternative to those of Figure 9. For example, in addition to or in the alternative to the Evans calcaneal osteotomy and the medializing calcaneal osteotomy, a cotton osteotomy (medial cuneiform opening wedge osteotomy) and/or a first metatarsal midfoot osteotomy may be performed. Patient-specific cutting guides may be designed, fabricated, and surgically used to facilitate any of these procedures through the presence of bone engagement surfaces that are shaped to rest on the particular bony surfaces adjacent to the osteotomy.
