Content
Those of skill in the art will appreciate that the position and orientation of the first slot 1960 and second slot 1970 and the corresponding cut surface a surgeon can form using these guide features can vary depending on the anatomical structures of the patient, the osteotomy procedure being performed, preferences of the surgeon, the nature of the condition, and the like. For example in the illustrated embodiment, the medial end 1964 of the first slot 1960 is closer to the medial end 1974 of the second slot 1970 than the lateral end 1962 is in relation to the lateral end 1972. In another embodiment, the lateral end 1962 of the first slot 1960 may be closer to the lateral end 1972 of the second slot 1970 than the medial end 1964 is in relation to the medial end 1974. Of course in another embodiment, the first slot 1960 and second slot 1970 may be configured such that a first distance between lateral end 1962 and lateral end 1972 and a second distance between medial end 1964 and medial end 1974 are substantially the same.
