SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES FOR TIBIAL RESECTION

摘要

Systems, methods and device for tibial resection comprise a first cutting guide and a second cutting guide. The first cutting guide (12) is configured to overlay a portion of the tibia and to direct a cutting instrument in a plane. The first cutting guide has a length extending from a generally medial portion of the tibia to a generally lateral portion of the tibia. The first cutting guide has a depth extending in a posterior direction generally perpendicular to the length and a groove extending along the length and depth of the first cutting guide such that the groove extends along a generally transverse plane. The second cutting guide (34) is oriented at an angle to the first cutting guide and configured to extend generally in a posterior direction from the first cutting guide (12). The second cutting guide limits the cutting instrument in the transverse plane from cutting bone.
