Abstract
The method includes placing a first guide pin within a sacroiliac joint. The first guide pin is blunt-tipped and flexible such that the first guide pin takes a non-linear course along at least a portion of the sacroiliac joint. The method includes inserting a reamer over the first guide pin. The reamer has a flexible and cannulated shaft configured to follow the non-linear course taken by the first guide pin. The method includes reaming articular soft tissue and periarticular bone from both the ilium and the sacrum using the reamer and collecting reamed material within the shaft, removing the reamer and the reamed material resulting in a non-linear void coursing generally along the at least a portion of the sacroiliac joint, and advancing material into the non-linear void.
