Osteotomy guides are reusable surgical instruments designed to assist in precise bone cutting during procedures like joint replacements or corrective osteotomies. They attach directly to the bone to mark the intended cut line and stabilize the cutting tool, ensuring accuracy and reducing surgical risks.
These devices are typically regulated as surgical instruments and must meet sterilization standards for reuse. They are often supplied as part of orthopedic surgical kits and may require specific handling protocols to maintain sterility and functionality between uses.
