A handle assembly for use in conjunction with a surgical cutting device is provided. The handle assembly can generally include two, detachable pieces or housings. The first housing can include electrical and mechanical components for driving a cutting assembly, such as a motor, while the second housing can include a fluid flow path that allows fluid to flow from the surgical site to a location outside of the cutting device. At least a portion of the fluid flow path can extend substantially adjacent to at least a portion of one or more components used to drive the cutting assembly to help manage the heat output of the components. The fluid flow path allows the fluid to exit the device without coming into contact with components like a motor, while also helping to cool the handle assembly. Systems and methods for cutting tissue are also provided. |
