Abstract:
A surgical handpiece for removing tissue includes a housing defining a cavity therein, the housing having a proximal hub connector disposed at a distal end thereof. An end effector assembly is operably supported by the proximal hub connector and includes an outer shaft supporting a cutting shaft configured to remove tissue upon activation thereof via translation or rotation. A fluid pump is disposed within the cavity of the housing and is configured to evacuate fluid from the cutting shaft upon activation thereof. A motor is disposed within the cavity of the housing and includes a power coupler operably coupled to both the cutting shaft and the fluid pump for suppling power thereto.
