Kuentscher Bone Reamer 35cm

Clinical Application

Designed for preparation of the intramedullary canal during long-bone fixation procedures, this instrument is used to sequentially enlarge and shape the medullary canal to accept intramedullary nails and interlocking systems. Common procedural uses include femoral and tibial canal reaming in trauma and elective orthopedic cases where precise canal sizing and centralization are required prior to nail insertion.

Design & Configuration

The 35 cm long-shaft geometry provides the reach and rigidity necessary to access diaphyseal segments of long bones. The reaming head is configured with cutting flutes to remove cancellous bone efficiently while maintaining axial alignment within the canal. The extended shaft length aids in controlled advancement to the target depth and improves tactile feedback for the surgeon during sequential reaming.
