A surgical assistance system may obtain a pre-revision model of a bone of a patient. The pre-revision model of the bone represents a pre-revision state of the bone after a prior orthopedic surgery on the bone. In this example, an orthopedic prosthesis was attached to the bone during the prior orthopedic surgery. Additionally, the surgical assistance system may obtain intra-revision imaging data of the bone. The intra-revision imaging data represents an intra-revision state of the bone during the orthopedic revision surgery after removal of the orthopedic prosthesis from the bone. The surgical assistance system may determine, based on the intra revision imaging data, damaged and intact parts of the bone. The surgical assistance system may then generate a second intra-revision model of the bone by modifying the pre-revision model of the bone to exclude damaged parts of the bone.
