Abstract
A resection guide locator includes a bone engagement portion with surfaces that are complementary to the surface topographies of a bone to be resected during surgery. A housing includes a socket defined by a resilient annular wall that is sized and arranged so to accept a resection guide by press-fit to thereby position and hold the resection guide within he socket. The resection guide is maintained in a predetermined, preferred position while the surfaces are releasably locked in position on the bone. A method is disclosed for forming and using the resection guide locator.

19. A system, comprising:
-
a locating device including a body having opposed first and second sides, the first side including a conformal surface that is shaped to be complementary to a shape of a natural anatomical surface of a patient, the body of the locating device including a base having a surface that is recessed relative to a surface of the second side such that the surface of the base is disposed between the conformal surface and the surface of the second side, wherein the surface of the base defines a first plurality of slots, each slot of the first plurality of slots extends through the body of the locating device and is sized and configured to receive a surgical instrument therein; and a resection guide sized and configured to be at least partially received within the recessed surface defined by the locating device, the resection guide defining a second plurality of slots, each slot of the second plurality of slots is configured to align with a respective one of the first plurality of slots when the resection guide is positioned properly within the recessed surface of the locating device such that a surface of the resection guide abuts the surface of the base, wherein the resection guide includes (i) a bridge beam disposed between a pilot block that extends from a post of the locating device and a support block of the locating device when the resection guide is positioned properly within the recessed surface, and (ii) a pair of divergent arms that extend away from the bridge beam such that the first and second arms of the resection guide extend beyond the body of the locating device when the resection guide is positioned properly within the recessed surface defined by the locating device.
