A reamer used in orthopedic surgery that reams and collects bone cement. The reamer may come in different diameters and is used when removal of bone cement is necessary, as is commonly done in revision surgeries. The reamer has a cutting tip with a fluted opening connected to a hollow body in which the bone cement chips or shavings collect after passing through the tip. The other end of the reamer has a hub that can connect to a drill. As the reamer advances into the IM canal it shaves the bone cement off of the walls and/or the bottom of the intramedullary canal. The reamer has a central channel extending throughout its length through which a guide wire may be placed.
