Abstract
Apparatus and methods are disclosed for correcting deformities in a patient's foot. In one example, a metatarsus adductus is addressed using a pin placement guide that is angulated to be placed in alignment with a cuneiform and a metatarsal, such that the TMT joint can be subsequently cut, and the metatarsal moved into proper alignment. Th pin placement guide can be a variable angle guide, or a kit of fixed-angle pin placement guides can be provided.
