A surgical method for tibia osteotomy includes attaching a patient-specific alignment guide to a corresponding surface of a tibia of a patient for whom the alignment guide is customized during a pre-operative planning stage and making a partial bone cut in the tibia through a planar slot of the alignment guide. The planar slot is oriented at a patient-specific angle relative to an anatomic axis of the patient and the angle is customized during the pre-operative planning stage. The method includes opening the bone cut to form an opening wedge, and inserting a patient-specific implantable wedge into the opening wedge.

1. A surgical method comprising: attaching a three-dimensional engagement surface of a patient-specific alignment guide to a corresponding surface of a tibia of a patient for whom the alignment guide is custom-made by computer imaging during a pre-operative planning stage, the three-dimensional engagement surface conforming as a negative surface to the corresponding surface of the patient's tibia;making a partial bone cut in the tibia through a planar slot of the alignment guide, the planar slot oriented at a patient-specific angle relative to an anatomic axis of the patient, the angle custom-selected during the pre-operative planning stage for correcting the patient's anatomy;opening the bone cut to form a wedge-shaped opening in the tibia; andinserting a patient-specific implantable wedge into the wedge-shaped opening, the implantable wedge including first and second planar surfaces defining a wedge angle therebetween, the wedge angle custom-selected during pre-operative planning for correcting the patient's anatomy. 2. The surgical method of claim 1, further comprising removably attaching a patient-specific fixation plate to the implantable wedge, the patient-specific fixation plate having a custom made surface mating as a negative surface with a corresponding surface of the patient's tibia. 3. The surgical method of claim 2, further comprising drilling bone apertures for bone fasteners through patient-specific apertures of the alignment guide. 4. The surgical method of claim 2, wherein the planar slot defines a depth or length dimension of the cut. 5. The surgical method of claim 2, further comprising drilling a hole in the tibia through a central aperture intersecting the planar slot of the patient-specific alignment guide before making a bone cut through the planar slot. 6. The surgical method of claim 2, further comprising removably coupling the patient-specific fixation plate to the implantable wedge with a dovetail connection. 7. The surgical method of claim 2, wherein the implantable wedge includes a plurality of separate components. 8. The surgical method of claim 1, wherein inserting a patient-specific implantable wedge into the opening wedge includes attaching a patient-specific fixation plate monolithically formed with the implantable wedge, the patient-specific fixation plate having a custom made surface mating as a negative surface with a corresponding surface of the patient's tibia. 9. The surgical method of claim 1, further comprising drilling a guiding hole in the tibia through a central guiding aperture passing through the planar slot. 10. The surgical method of claim 9, wherein the implantable wedge includes an elongated curved central portion and pairs of planar surfaces extending radially from the central portion and defining the wedge angle therebetween, and wherein the central portion is configured to conform to a shape of the guiding hole drilled through the central guiding aperture of the patient-specific alignment guide. 11. A surgical method comprising: attaching a three-dimensional engagement surface of a patient-specific alignment guide to a corresponding surface of a tibia of a patient for whom the alignment guide is custom made by computer imaging during a pre-operative planning stage, the three-dimensional engagement surface conforming as a negative surface to the corresponding surface of a patient's tibial bone;making a first partial planar cut in the tibia through a first planar slot of the alignment guide, the first planar slot oriented at a first patient-specific angle relative to an anatomic axis of the patient, the first patient-specific angle custom-selected for the patient during a pre-operative planning stage;making a second partial planar cut in the tibia through a second planar slot of the alignment guide, the second planar slot oriented at a second patient-specific angle relative to an anatomic axis of the patient, the second patient-specific angle custom-selected during a pre-operative planning stage, the first and second planar cuts meeting at an angle to define a bone wedge having a third patient-specific angle;removing the bone wedge to form a wedge-shaped opening; andclosing the wedge-shaped opening by bringing together corresponding first and second cut surfaces of the first and second planar cuts. 12. The surgical method of claim 11, further comprising attaching a three-dimensional patient-specific engagement surface of a patient-specific fixation plate over the tibia to secure the tibia after closing the wedge-shaped opening, the three-dimensional engagement surface conforming as a negative surface to the corresponding surface of the patient's tibia. 13. A surgical method comprising: attaching a three-dimensional engagement surface of a patient-specific alignment guide to a corresponding surface of a tibia of a patient for whom the alignment guide is custom-made by computer imaging during a pre-operative planning stage, the three-dimensional engagement surface conforming as a negative surface to the corresponding surface of a patient's tibial bone;drilling a hole in the tibia through a central aperture intersecting the planar slot of the patient-specific alignment guide;making a partial bone cut in the tibia through the planar slot of the alignment guide, the planar slot oriented at a patient-specific angle relative to an anatomic axis of the patient, the angle custom-selected during the pre-operative planning stage for correcting the patient's anatomy;opening the bone cut to form a wedge-shaped opening in the tibia; andinserting a patient-specific implantable wedge into the wedge-shaped opening, the implantable wedge including first and second planar surfaces defining a wedge angle therebetween, the wedge angle custom-selected during pre-operative planning for correcting the patient's anatomy. 14. The surgical method of claim 13, wherein the implantable wedge includes an elongated curved central portion and pairs of planar surfaces extending radially from the central portion and defining the wedge angle therebetween, and wherein the central portion is configured to conform to a shape of the guiding hole drilled through the central guiding aperture of the patient-specific alignment guide. 15. The surgical method of claim 13, further comprising removably attaching a patient-specific fixation plate to the implantable wedge, the patient-specific fixation plate having a custom made surface mating as a negative surface with a corresponding surface of the patient's tibia. 16. The surgical method of claim 13, wherein inserting a patient-specific implantable wedge into the opening wedge includes attaching a patient-specific fixation plate monolithically formed with the implantable wedge, the patient-specific fixation plate having a custom made surface mating as a negative surface with a corresponding surface of the patient's tibia. 17. The surgical method of claim 13, further comprising removably coupling the patient-specific fixation plate to the implantable wedge with a dovetail connection. 18. The surgical method of claim 13, wherein the implantable wedge includes a plurality of separate components. 19. The surgical method of claim 13, further comprising drilling bone apertures for bone fasteners through patient-specific apertures of the alignment guide. 20. The surgical method of claim 13, wherein the planar slot defines a depth or length dimension of the cut.
