Zusammenfassung:A safety broach for use in arthroplasty for hip joints, and a system including the same. The system may further include a segmented or otherwise flexible reamer and an implant. The safety broach includes a hollow interior passage that serves to guide the reamer when the safety broach is in place in the bone. The system may include any number of sizes of safety broaches, segmented reamers, and implants. In any case, such a safety broach may be capable of assisting with arthroplasty for hip joints (or any other joint), while typically providing enhanced safety and reliability of the arthroplasty.
