The posterior angle 2052 may be determined, at least partially, based on a calcaneus model derived from medical imaging of a calcaneus of a patient’s foot. In one embodiment, the calcaneus model is configured to significantly resemble the anatomy of the patient's foot. The anterior angle 2056 may be determined based on the calcaneus model. Furthermore, the anterior angle 2056 may be determined such that an osteotomy formed by way of the posterior resection feature 2022a and the anterior resection feature 2022b forms a wedge osteotomy. The wedge osteotomy includes a wedge bone fragment 2050. In certain embodiments, the wedge bone fragment 2050 may be determined, at least partially, based on the calcaneus model.
