Content
In one embodiment, the bone engagement surface 2033 is configured to register to a lateral surface of a bone of a patient. In certain embodiments, the bone engagement surface 2033 is defined based, at least in part, on a lateral surface of a bone model of a bone of a patient’s foot. Advantageously, the bone engagement surface 2033 is a negative contoured surface that resembles, substantially resembles, and/or matches a surface of the bone model contacting a model of the resection guide 2020a, when the model of the resection guide 2020a is positioned as desired on the bone model. In one embodiment, registration of a bone engagement surface 2033 means that each feature or aspect of the bone engagement surface 2033 engages, mates, and/or fits within a corresponding feature or aspect of the surface of the bone of the patient. For example, where the bone surface includes a protrusion, the bone engagement surface 2033 includes a recess configured to accept and engage with that protrusion.
