  • Publication number: 20240050108
    Abstract: A system that provides a guide arm, a ratchet arm frame configured to be coupled to the guide arm, a ratchet arm configured to be coupled to the ratchet arm frame, and a sagittal sizing guide body configured to be coupled to the ratchet arm. The sagittal sizing guide body includes a first radiopaque object disposed at a first position and a second radiopaque object disposed at a second position that is spaced apart from the first position. The first radiopaque object has a length that corresponds to a length of a second prosthesis component. When the surgical alignment system is positioned for use on a patient, the first radiopaque object identifies a location at which a first resection of a first bone is to be performed.

  • Publication number: 20240041477
    Abstract: A surgical guide includes a first guide arm extending from a first end to a second end on a first longitudinal axis. The first guide arm defines a first plurality of openings sized and configured to receive a first guide element therethrough. A second guide arm extends from a first end to a second end on a second longitudinal axis. The second guide arm defines a second plurality of openings sized and configured to receive a second guide element therethrough. A pivot element couples the first end of the first guide arm to the first end of the second guide arm such that an angular distance between the first guide arm and the second guide arm can be adjusted in a first plane.
