Content
In certain embodiments, the positioning guide 2300 can facilitate translation and/or rotation of two parts of a bone or two bones of a patient. In the illustrated embodiment, the action of positioning guide 2300 on the fasteners 2012 can cause the posterior bone fragment 2114 to translate relative to the anterior bone fragment 2116. In certain embodiments, the positioning guide 2300 can include an offset feature (translation feature) that facilitates positioning the posterior bone fragment 2114 with a desired translation and/or orientation relative to the anterior bone fragment 2116. In addition, in certain embodiments, one or more of the pin guides 2200 (e.g., an anterior pin guide 2204 and a posterior pin guide 2202) may permit rotation of one part of the bone in relation to the other part or another landmark.
