摘要:
A kit for reaming a portion of a cavity for use in implanting a prosthesis. The kit includes a distal reamer for reaming a distal portion of the long bone and a proximal reamer for reaming a proximal portion of the long bone. The kit further includes a pilot shaft for insertion into a reamed distal portion and attachment to the proximal reamer during the reaming of the proximal portion. At least one of the distal reamer, proximal reamer, and pilot shaft is expandable, such that at least one of the distal reamer, proximal reamer, and pilot shaft includes a body having a plurality of slots, a plurality of cutting edges extending through the slots, and an actuator rod including a gear for engaging the plurality of cutting edges such that when the actuator rod is turned in one direction, the plurality of cutting edges expands outwardly through the slots.
