The Starter Reamer can be used
to enter the femoral canal through
the trochanteric fossa. The Starter
Reamer has a point to facilitate entry
and graduated markings along the
shaft that correspond to implant
sizes.
Enter the canal with the Starter
Reamer attached to either a T-handle
or powered instrument. Place the
Starter Reamer on the exposed
trochanteric fossa and proceed
down into the shaft along its axis
to the appropriate depth and align
to the center of the knee. The
Starter Reamer should be inserted
such that the appropriate marking
corresponding to the pre-operatively
selected stem size correlates to the
depth of the medial resection point.
