Content

The present disclosure discloses surgical systems and methods by which a bone condition, such as a deformity, may be corrected through the use of patient-specific instrumentation. Known methods of correcting bone conditions are often limited to a finite range of discretely sized instruments. A patient with an unusual condition, or anatomy that falls between instrument sizes, may not be readily treated with such systems. One example is correction of a bunion, in particular, via adjustment of the angulation between a cuneiform and a metatarsus.
