摘要:
Systems and methods for measuring an intramedullary length for an orthopedic implant are described herein. A reamer system comprises a reamer shaft and a first reamer head. The reamer shaft comprises a proximal end having a drive coupler, a distal end having a reamer coupler, and markers located along the reamer shaft proximate the proximal end. The first reamer head comprises a head coupler configured to connect with the reamer coupler, and one or more cutting flutes located distal to the head coupler. The markers provide an indication of lengths of the system from a distal tip of the cutting flutes to each of the markers. The markers can be radiopaque. A method of employing the reamer system to measure the intramedullary length is described herein.
