Paragraph Number

85

In some embodiments, the implant 610 may be patient-specific. For example, the implant 610 may have a cuneiform-facing side 620 that is shaped and/or sized to be secured to the adjoining, resected surface of the first cuneiform 210, and a metatarsus-facing side 630 that is shaped and/or sized to be secured to the adjoining, resected surface of the first metatarsus 230. As the resections made to the first metatarsus 230 and the first cuneiform 210 may both planar, the cuneiform-facing side 620 and/or the metatarsus-facing side 630 may also be planar. However, the cuneiform-facing side 620 and/or the metatarsus-facing side 630 may advantageously each be shaped to match the profile of the resected surface of the first cuneiform 210 and the first metatarsus 230, respectively.
