Patient-specific guide systems and methods for performing bone resections for ankle arthroplasties comprises a bone guide body and a bone resection block. The bone guide body comprises a patient-specific surface for engaging a surface of a talus or a tibia, and a first pin hole and a first socket in the bone guide body. The bone resection block is removably insertable into the first socket, receives a first pin that can be inserted in the first pin hole, and includes a resection guide surface. The system further comprises a floating bone trial that attaches to the bone resection block via a floating bone guide. The floating bone trail receives a chamfer spacer and guide for further resecting the bone. The system further comprises a stylus for engagement with the resection guide surface to confirm resection depth. The bone guide body includes alignment pin and resection block snap lock features.

Patient-specific instrumentation and methods for ankle arthroplasty

Instrument systems for performing total ankle arthroplasties comprise an instrument adapter, a talus reaming guide and a talar trial system. The instrument adapter comprises a coupler for attaching to a robotic surgical arm, an extension arm extending from the coupler, a talus resection block attached to the extension arm, including a talus cutting guide surface, and an interface for receiving another instrument. The talus reaming guide comprises a second attachment member for coupling to the interface, and a reaming hoop for confining movement of a reamer. The talar trial system comprises a talar adapter for connecting to the interface, and a talar trial couplable to the talar adapter, the talar trial including a talar bearing surface. The talus resection block can serve as a universal instrument adapter for mounting the talus reaming guide, the talar trial system and a tibia resection block for performing a total ankle arthroplasty.
