Content
The repository 2102 may include any number of, and/or a variety of template cutting guide models 1832. The template cutting guide models 1832 may be distinguished based on a gender or age of the patient, which joint of a midfoot, hind foot, or ankle will be cut, which material will be used for the template cutting guide, and the like. The template cutting guide model 1832 may differ from each other in what degree of deformity correction the template cutting guide model 1832 is designed to provide. In addition, the template cutting guide models 1832 may be distinguished based how one or more features of the template cutting guide model 1832 are positioned, arranged, and/or configured relative to each other. For example in certain template cutting guide models 1832, the number, position, and/or configuration of alignment features 1260a,b and/or bone attachment features (e.g., holes 1240) may vary based on needs or preferences of patients, the nature of the deformity, and/or surgeon preferences.
