Abstract
A combination device for use in preparing a bone to receive a prosthetic component includes a body section. A drill section configured to bore a hole in the bone and extending away from the body portion defines a first longitudinal axis and a first maximum radius perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. A plurality of reaming fins extend downwardly from the body portion and outwardly from the drill section. A first drill guide extends through the body at a location between two of the plurality of reaming fins, the first drill guide defines a second longitudinal axis parallel to the first longitudinal axis and a second maximum radius perpendicular to the second longitudinal axis. The first longitudinal axis is spaced apart from the second longitudinal axis by a distance which is greater than the first maximum radius plus the second maximum radius.
