Content

Figures 35A-35C illustrate different stages of performing a surgical osteotomy procedure (e.g., an Akin osteotomy) using an osteotomy system, according to one embodiment. Figures 35A-35B illustrate a medial cuneiform bone 3402, first metatarsal bone 3404, first proximal phalanx 3406, first distal phalanx 3408, and other bones of a foot. Typically, the preferred approach for an Akin osteotomy is on the medial side of the proximal phalanx (e.g., first proximal phalanx 3406). Figure 35A illustrates the resection guide 3320 secured to the proximal phalanx by way of fasteners 3310.
