A disposable intramedullary device for temporary use for treatment of limb infections comprising a solid core of variable cross-section, including a distal portion, a middle portion and a proximal portion, said proximal portion and distal portion including anchoring regions consisting of through-holes being passed through by bone anchoring means. Outside said anchoring regions, said solid core is coated with a polymer layer which also includes antibiotic, the outer diameter of the solid core and polymer layer assembly being equivalent to that of an intramedullary channel, and the outer diameter of said solid core in said anchoring regions being equivalent to that of said intramedullary channel.
