Abstract:
A tissue resecting device includes a housing having an outer shaft extending therefrom, the outer shaft including a tool portion disposed at a distal end thereof, the tool portion having a window defined therein. A rotatable inner shaft is disposed within the outer shaft and includes a cutting member disposed at the distal end thereof in concentric alignment with the tool portion and configured to rotate concomitantly with the inner shaft. The cutting member includes a series of slots defined therein configured to facilitate articulation of the cutting member and a blade disposed at a distal end thereof configured to cut tissue upon rotational engagement therewith. An actuator is configured to articulate the tool portion and the cutting member upon actuation thereof between a neutral position wherein the blade is aligned for radial cutting and articulated positions wherein the blade is aligned for varying degrees of axially-aligned cutting.
