See full text

A system for resecting a posterior region of a femoral condyle includes a posterior resection guide having a main body with an upper end and a lower end, a cutting instrument guide surface provided on the main body, and a series of anchor pin holes extending through the main body. The series of anchor pin holes includes a first pair of pin holes located a first distance from the upper end of the main body, a second pair of pin holes located a second distance from the upper end of the main body that is less than the first distance, and a third pair of anchor pin holes located a third distance from the upper end of the main body that is more than the first distance. Anchor pins are insertable through the anchor pin holes for coupling the posterior resection guide with a femoral condyle of a femur.
