Content
Figure 35E illustrates the first proximal phalanx 3406 after one embodiment of a resection guide 3320 is removed and the osteotomy is closed. In the illustrated embodiment, the osteotomy may be an oblique osteotomy preplanned by a surgeon to assist in providing a correction. Note that the bone attachment features 3324 and/or resection features 3322 can be configured in the resection guide 3320 such that once the resection guide 3320 is removed the fasteners 3310 can be used to align, reorient, and/or correct positioning of the proximal part 3406a relative to the distal part 3406b of the first proximal phalanx 3406. Advantageously, each of the aspects and/or attributes of a resection guide 3320 and/or a one or more bone attachment features 3324 and/or resection features 3322 and/or position and/or orientation of fasteners 3310 can be patient-specific and/or can be predetermined before the surgical procedure.
