Abstract
A bone cutting and joint realignment instrument may include an integrated spacer body, bone preparation guide, and fulcrum body. The spacer body is configured to be inserted into a joint space between a metatarsal and an opposed cuneiform of a foot. The bone preparation guide body is affixed to the spacer body with the spacer body extending downwardly from the bone preparation guide body. The bone preparation guide body can define at least one guide surface configured to be positioned over at least one of the metatarsal and the opposed cuneiform. The fulcrum body may be rotatably coupled to the spacer body within a bounded range of rotation, such as a bounded range of less than 45 degree. The fulcrum body can be configured to be inserted in an intermetatarsal space between the metatarsal and an adjacent metatarsal.
