Content
As in the case of the Evans calcaneal osteotomy, a custom cutting guide, or cutting guide 1853, may be generated to help the surgeon obtain the correction that was previously modeled and/or planned using the computer models of the patient’s foot. The cutting guide 1853 may have a structure and function similar to that of the cutting guide 1843 used for the Evans calcaneal osteotomy. Such a cutting guide may have contoured surfaces that match the contours of the adjoining boney surfaces of the remainder of the second bone segment 1842 and/or the heel 1850.
