An acetabular reamer has a rotatable drive shaft extending along a first longitudinal central axis. A second housing surrounds at least a portion of the drive shaft, the first housing having a gripping arm. A drive motor in a first housing is coupled to a first end of the rotatable drive shaft for rotating the drive shaft. A reamer head is rotatably coupled to a second end of the rotatable drive shaft, the reamer head rotatable about a second axis extending at an acute angle with respect to the rotatable drive shaft first longitudinal. A releasable connector couples the first and second housing and prevent relative rotation between the first housing and the second housing.
