A surgical apparatus includes a surgical instrument (24) with a handpiece, an aspiration conduit (1), a pump(2) and a pressure transducer(3) and logic console(4) which determines vacuum level fluctuations in the aspiration conduit. The aspiration conduit is connected to a surgical cavity and the pump(2) creates a vacuum in the aspiration conduit(1) downstream and transports the fluid and/or tissue material from the surgical cavity, through the aspiration conduit and into a collection container(11). A temperature sensor and a thermostat control the temperature of the surgical instrument, said instrument(24) being disconnected from its source of power when its temperature is above a predetermined value. <IMAGE> |
