A system (10) for preparing a long bone for a prosthetic, the long bone having a long axis comprises a distal instrument (12) and a proximal instrument (14). The distal instrument (12) is configured to remove bone from a distal portion of bone. The distal instrument (12) has a bone removing portion (16) configured to remove bone along the long axis of the long bone and a shaft (18) extending from the bone removing portion (16) along the long axis of the long bone. The proximal instrument (14) is configured to overlie the shaft (18) of the distal element (12) within the long bone. The distal shaft (18) guides the proximal instrument (14) to prepare the proximal portion of the long bone after the distal instrument (12) has prepared the distal portion of the long bone.

L'invention concerne un système (10) pour préparer un os long pour une prothèse, l'os long présentant un axe long. Ledit système inclut un instrument distal (12) et un instrument proximal (14). L'instrument distal (12) est configuré pour retirer l'os d'une partie distale d'os. L'instrument distal (12) comporte une partie de retrait d'os (16), configurée pour retirer l'os le long de l'axe long de l'os long, et un arbre (18) s'étendant à partir de la partie de retrait d'os (16) le long de l'axe long de l'os long. L'instrument proximal (14) est configuré pour recouvrir l'arbre (18) de l'élément distal (12) dans l'os long. L'arbre distal (18) guide l'instrument proximal (14) pour préparer la partie proximale de l'os long après que l'instrument distal (12) a préparé la partie distale de l'os long.
