<p>A tissue removal apparatus having a cutting element mounted to a handpiece. The cutting element includes an outer cannula defining a tissue-receiving opening and an inner cannula concentrically disposed within the outer cannula. The outer cannula has a trocar tip at its distal end and a cutting board snugly disposed within the outer cannula. The inner cannula defines an inner lumen that extends the length of the inner cannula, and which provides an avenue for aspiration. The inner cannula terminates in an inwardly beveled, razor-sharp cutting edge and is driven by a single motor that causes both rotary and reciprocating movement of the inner cannula.</p> |
