Abstract:
Resection guides include a body a plurality of alignment pin through-holes and a plurality of guide through-holes so that the pattern of guide through-holes is operable for receiving a drill for use in resecting the at least a portion of the anatomical structure of the patient. Sweeping reamers include a body having a plurality of alignment pin through-holes and an elongated opening, and a reamer extendable through the elongated opening of the body. Decoupled resection guides include a first body having a plurality of alignment pin through-holes and a second body having a plurality of fixation pin through-holes and at least one guide aperture operable for guiding a cutting tool for use in resecting a portion of the second anatomical structure of the patient. Methods employing the same are disclosed and operable in, for example, total ankle replacement.
