Abstract: The invention concerns a system for partially cutting a bone, comprising a device for guiding a cutting tool. According to the invention, the device comprises: —an upper face forming a mechanical stop for a first part of the cutting tool, the upper face being non-cutting and thicker than the blade, so as to limit the insertion of the blade into said bone in order to partially cut said bone, the upper stop face having a profile that is a homothety of the edge profile of said hinge, the guide device having a pre-defined range to ensure the steering of the blade of the cutting tool in a pre-defined direction of partial cutting of the bone, —a second part that fastens to the bone and a first fastening means for fastening the guide device to the second part and —a means for adjusting the orientation of the guide device relative to the second part.

Abstract: The invention relates in particular to a system for attaching a first bone segment to a second bone segment, the two segments belonging to the same bone, in which the first and second segments are held together via a hinge resulting from the partial transverse cutting of said bone, characterized by the fact that said system comprises: two targets suitable for attaching to the two segments of said bone; a navigation system suitable for acquiring the three-dimensional positions and orientations of the targets; —a processing system suitable for calculating, based on the data sent from the navigation system, the angles corresponding to the three-dimensional alignment of said two segments; a display unit suitable for displaying the information to the surgeon; at least one milling guide; a plurality of implants of different sizes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a surgical method of attachment of a first bony segment in relation with a second bony segment, both segments belonging to a same bone, which comprises the steps of: milling said bone and cutting it partially, to separate it in two bony segments linked together by a bony hinge distracting both bony segments around said hinge; fitting an osteotomy implant into the cavity thus obtained; attaching said implant to both bony segments; wherein it comprises the preoperative steps of: determining the position and the direction of the future partial cut, calculating its depth, calculating the relative three-dimensional positions of both bony segments to obtain the final desired alignment of the two bony segments, choosing among several osteotomy implants, one which is wider than the largest distance between the facing sides of said bony segments after distraction, determining the position and the shape of the future implant reception cavity and calculating its dimensions, deducing therefrom

Abstract: The invention relates to an instrument (1) for positioning osteotomy tool-holder baseplates (E1, E2). According to the invention, the instrument contains two supports (2, 3) of said baseplates, connected together by a connecting part (4) in a semi-rigid material allowing relative displacement of one of the supports (2, 3) with respect to the other (3,2).
