1. A patient-specific surgical instrumentation system for use in surgery on a hip joint of a patient, comprising:
- a block having a patient-specific surface and a guide;
wherein the patient-specific surface has at least a portion that is substantially a negative of a corresponding portion of a surface of a proximal femur of the patient; and
wherein the guide is configured relative to the patient-specific surface to define a guide path oriented at a predetermined angle relative to a femoral neck or shaft axis of the femur when the patient-specific surface is placed against and aligned with the corresponding portion of the surface of the femur.
