Paragraph Number

392

In certain embodiments, where, for example, the positioning guide 2300 includes an offset feature 2308, the bone engagement surface 2310 may include a posterior surface 2334 and an anterior surface 2336. The posterior surface 2334 is configured to engage a surface of a posterior bone fragment 2114 and the anterior surface 2336 is configured to engage a surface of an anterior bone fragment 2116. Advantageously, one or both of the posterior surface 2334 and/or anterior surface 2336 can be configured to include a contour that resembles, substantially resembles, and/or matches a contour of a lateral surface of a posterior bone fragment 2114 and/or anterior bone fragment 2116 after one or the other or both of the bone fragments (e.g., posterior bone fragment 2114 and/or anterior bone fragment 2116) are positioned in preparation for fixation of the bone fragments.
