Content
In the illustrated embodiment, the pin guides 2200 (e.g., a posterior pin guide 2202 and an anterior pin guide 2204) serve to enable deployment of fasteners 2216 a distance, such as a predetermined distance from a posterior side 2036 and/or an anterior side 2034 of a resection guide 2020. The fasteners 2216 engage with the holes 2214 and the holes 2214 and arm 2206 cooperate to direct the fasteners 2216 into the bone in a desired position and/or angle. The fastener 2216 may engage the hole 2214 in a friction fit. In certain embodiments, once a fastener 2216 is deployed through a hole 2214, the pin guide 2200 may be removed by leaving the fastener 2216 in place and sliding the pin guide 2200 up and off of the fastener 2216.
