Paragraph Number

281

In certain embodiments, the bone engagement surface 1926 are patient-specific – contoured to match a surface of one or more bones the resection guide 1920 contacts during the osteotomy procedure. Alternatively, or in addition, the bone engagement surface 1926 may not be patient-specific and may, or may not, contact a bone surface during use of the resection guide 1920. Those of skill in the art appreciate that one or more sides of any of the members of the osteotomy system 1900 may include one or more bone engagement surfaces 1926. Consequently, one or more sides of the fasteners 1910, the resection guide(s) 1920, the complementary components 1930, one or more pin guides 1994, and/or the implants 1996 may include one or more bone engagement surfaces 1926.
