A compressor rectifier of a turbomachine including a plurality of stationary blades extending in a circular fashion between an inner shroud and an outer shroud that are concentric and define interblade channels forming an air duct in which air to be compressed flows, the inner shroud including at least one vortex generator extending into the air duct to reduce corner vortices. The vortex generator is positioned axially in the interblade channel, between the axial position of a leading edge of the blades and those of a trailing edge thereof.
