Content
In one embodiment, the offset feature 2308 may include an offset distance 2338. The offset distance 2338 may determine how much translation is provided between two bone fragments. In one embodiment, the offset distance 2338 can range from about 0 millimeters (i.e., no translation) to about 10 millimeters. Advantageously, the magnitude of the offset distance 2338 can be set using a model of one or more bones of the patient and/or a model of the positioning guide 2300. In this manner, the offset feature 2308 and/or the offset distance 2338 can be a patient-specific feature that can be defined based, at least in part on a model of a bone of a patient. A surgeon, or other user, can define the offset distance 2338 based on a desired about of translation.
