Abstract:
A method and one or more devices for a capitolunate fusion includes a cutting block for attaching to the capitate bone and for cutting the capitate and lunate bones to fit a corresponding plate. The cutting block is removed and a fusion plate is fixed to the capitate and lunate bone with the plate having a capitate section and a lunate section with the capitate section and lunate section of the plate in a generally perpendicular arrangement to allow optimal fusion of the capitate and lunate bones. Further devices include a three and four bone fusion cutting block and fusion plate.
