Abstract
An osteotomy apparatus and method for precisely locating two parallel, spaed apart bone cuts are disclosed. The apparatus includes a locator blade which is capable of being positioned in a first bone cut. A saw guide having a slot therein is positioned in a plane parallel to the plane of the locator blade. The locator blade is fixed to a carriage member which has a flat bed, with the locator blade positioned at an acute angle with respect to the flat bed. The saw guide is part of or attached to a moveable member which is shaped to ride along the flat bed with the saw guide extending outwardly therefrom. A screw drive positions the moveable member and the saw guide on the flat bed and a scale on the flat bed locates the saw guide relative to the locator blade.
