A bone resection guide for removal of a portion of a bone of a patient. The bone resection guide includes a resecting section and a drilling section. The resecting section has a bone-facing surface, an extension engaging surface, opposed to the bone-facing surface, and at least one resecting slot extending therethrough between the bone-facing surface and the extension engaging surface. The drilling section has a connecting surface, a tool engaging surface, opposed to the connecting surface, and a plurality of guiding bores extending therethrough from the tool engaging surface to the connecting surface. The drilling section is engageable with the resecting section with the connecting surface of the drilling section facing the extension engaging surface of the resecting section and the plurality of guiding bores being aligned with the at least one resecting slot when the drilling and resecting sections are engaged and secured together.

Bone resection guide and method

A bone resection guide for the resection of a bone of a patient. The bone resection guide comprises a body and a resection alignment guide. The body extends between a tool engaging surface and a bone-facing surface superposable to the bone of the patient and is removably securable to the bone of the patient with the bone facing surface superposed thereto. The resection alignment guide defines at least one resection plane and extends along a resection path. The resection alignment guide comprises a plurality of guiding bores extending from the tool engaging surface into at least a section of the body, along the resection path. A method for performing a resection of a portion of a bone of a patient is also provided.

An orthopedic implant to cover at least partially a surface of a bone of a patient. The orthopedic implant comprises a body having at least one retaining section, a bone-facing surface, and an articular surface. The at least one retaining section is configured to retain the orthopedic implant on the surface of the patient's bone along at least one axis by covering a corresponding retaining surface thereof. The bone-facing surface of at least one of the at least one retaining section nestingly conforms to an unresected portion of the surface of the bone of the patient. A method for conceiving and implanting an orthopedic implant is also provided.
