Medical milling cutter for severing tissue portions at bone, has an inner channel connected with a vacuum source, such that the detached tissue portions sucked through openings are discharged into channel from a material-removing tool

摘要

The milling cutter (10) has a rod-shaped main portion (12) formed at the distal end (14), in which the proximal end for rotating the main portion about longitudinal axis is connectable to a drive. The main portion is provided with a material-removing tool (20) in the circumferential region (18), such that the openings (28) communicate with an inner channel in the main portion, while the channel is connected with a vacuum source, so that the detached tissue portions sucked through the openings are discharged into the channel from the material-removing tool.
