Abstract
A surgical registration tool including a bone engagement structure comprising a distal condyle abutment structure, at least one posterior condyle abutment structure, a side condyle abutment structure, and an anterior shaft abutment structure. The distal condyle abutment structure includes a distal planar surface. The at least one posterior condyle abutment structure includes at least one planar surface extending distally from the distal planar surface and positioned perpendicular to the distal planar surface. The side condyle abutment structure includes a planar surface extending distally from the distal planar surface and positioned perpendicular to the distal planar surface and the at least one planar surface. The anterior shaft abutment structure extends distally from the distal planar surface and terminates at a distal tip. The registration tool also includes a handle coupled to the engagement structure and extending proximally therefrom, and a tracker array configured to couple to the handle.
