A crossbar is slidably engaged with the shank, wherein the crossbar is connected to the second handle portion, wherein a cutting opening is formed between a distal end of the crossbar and the footplate of the shank. An opening selection actuator is positioned within at least one of the first and second handle portion, wherein the opening selection actuator engages between the first and second handle portions to control a length of the cutting opening.

Abstract: An orthopedic reamer connector includes a base shaped to allow for connection of an orthopedic reamer having a connection surface and being configured to rotatably connect to a rotary actuator; two pairs of holders associated with the connection surface that each have a first holder and a second holder that forms an acute angle relative to said first holder. The first holders are opposed to each other by about 180 degrees and the second holders are opposed to each other by about 180 degrees. A pair of stops are associated with each of the two pairs of holders. Each pair of stops has a first stop associated with the first holder and a second stop associated with the second holder.

Abstract: The disclosure illustrates a dual driver for surgical reamers in which either of a crossbridge and crossbar style reamers are axially inserted in the distal end of a central shaft for the reamer driver. A pair of L shaped grips are adapted to connect and disconnect the different style of reamers by the movement of an external sleeve biased towards the connection position. Movement of the sleeve away from the distal end allows an internal plunger to cam the grips to an open position and urge the appropriate reamer from the tool driver directly in an axial direction.
