A surgical jig for use in performing a scarf osteotomy on the first metatarsal of the forefoot includes a cutting guide that is adapted to guide a cutting implement relative to a reference surface that is adapted to be placed against the plantar aspect of a forefoot. The jig has guide surfaces for guiding both the longitudinal cut and the transverse cuts of the operation. The jig is selected from one in a set of jigs by an overlay template, through which an X-ray of the forefoot can be viewed. |
