Content
Figure 39A illustrates the resection guide 3820 secured to the calcaneus 1806 by way of fasteners 2010a,b. A surgeon has created the osteotomy. The anterior bone fragment 1806a is separated from the posterior bone fragment 1806b. Advantageously, fastener 2010a engages with the anterior bone fragment 1806a and fastener 2010b engages with the posterior bone fragment 1806b. Thus, a surgeon can manipulate these bone fragments as needed. At this stage, a surgeon can remove the resection guide 3820 and the fasteners 2010 remain in the bone fragments.
