Content
In Figure 39E, the fixation guide 3890 engages with fastener 2010a and passes between handles of the positioning guide 3810b and also engages with fastener 2010b. The fixation guide 3890 then extends posteriorly and positions two sleeves 3894 for deployment of guide pins 3896. The guide pins 3896 are deployed across the osteotomy and serve to guide permanent fixation such as cannulated bone screws or the like. In one embodiment, using embodiments of the present disclosure, a surgeon can determine where the guide pins 3896 will enter the bones preoperatively using a bone model of one or more bones of a patient and can adjust a trajectory for one or more of the guide pins 3896 and/or a location of entry for the guide pins 3896.
