Abstract
Various implementations include a guide for intramedullary reamer; that includes a central body adapted to be received in a medullary canal and defining an inlet opening and an outlet opening, communicating with each other by an axial cavity, passing inside the central body, adapted to receive a reamer inside it. The central body defines at least one non-rectilinear portion, interposed between the inlet opening and the outlet opening, shaped so as to guide the reamer inside the medullary canal, in axial alignment. The non-rectilinear portion defines a window adapted to facilitate the insertion of the reamer inside said central body.
