A tissue removal system comprises a rotatable burr element located within a distal housing and a burr opening. The burr opening is located about a distal surface and side surface of the distal housing. The distal housing is configured to bend or pivot with respect to a proximal housing. The proximal housing comprises an auger hole configured to draw fluid and particulate matter for transport proximally along the length of the tissue removal system. A linkage assembly attaches a drive shaft of the tissue removal assembly to the rotatable burr element to permit rotation of the rotatable burr element when the distal housing is bent or pivoted. |
