Zusammenfassung:A cutting guide for spinal osteotomy comprises two polyhedral blocks, each polyhedral block comprising a respective tubular guide member, each tubular guide member extends from a proximal opening to a distal opening and has an axial cavity extending along a longitudinal axis; a connecting bridge which connects the two polyhedral blocks to each other and is adapted to surmount a spinous process of said vertebra; and contact members designed to match a corresponding plurality of points of contact on the patient's vertebra to define a unique coupling configuration of the cutting guide on the patient's vertebra. The two polyhedral blocks each comprise at least a first and a second slotted body, associated in pairs with a respective tubular guide member, arranged one opposite the other with respect to the corresponding tubular guide member associated therewith.
