Content
After the stage illustrated in Figure 24E, a surgeon may remove the posterior pin guide 2202, anterior pin guide 2204, and the resection guide 2020. (block 2414) Then, a surgeon may remove the wedge bone fragment 2050 using, for example, the one or more fasteners 2010. (block 2416) Then, a surgeon may slide a positioning guide 2300 over the posterior pin 2220 and the anterior pin 2222 until the positioning guide 2300 contacts the posterior bone fragment 2114 and the anterior bone fragment 2116. (block 2420) In certain embodiments, this action of sliding the positioning guide 2300 to contact bone fragments can cause the osteotomy to be reduced and/or can cause the bone fragments to be translated and/or rotated relative to each other.
