FIGS. 2A-2E, illustrate a perspective top front view, a perspective top rear view, a perspective side view, a top view, and a bottom view of an exemplary embodiment of an intraoperative angle measurement apparatus (surgical device 200a). Referring to FIGS. 2A-2E, in the illustrated embodiment, the housing 220 has six surfaces: an anterior surface 222, a posterior surface 224, a superior surface 226, an inferior surface 228, a first lateral surface 230, and a second lateral surface 232. The surfaces may meet at edges. In the illustrated embodiment, the first lateral surface 230 and second lateral surface 232 are positioned to be a pair of opposite lateral surfaces. The first lateral surface 230 and second lateral surface 232 may extend at an obtuse angle in relation to the inferior surface 228 and engage with the superior surface 226. The angles of the first lateral surface 230 and/or second lateral surface 232 may be configured to minimize the size of the housing 220 and/or mitigate blockage of a surgeon’s view into a wound the surgical device 200a is in.
