<p>A percutaneous dissectomy system (20) having a bendable dissectomy probe (22) and steerable cannula (24) allows for a wide range of positions relative to the dissectomy tissue to be severed. The bendable dissectomy probe (22) includes a bendable section (78, 86) which can allow the probe (22) to be bent more than 90° and still maintain the function required in order to sever and remove tissue. The steerable cannula (24) has a similar bendable section (102) which can appropriately position the end (50) of the discectomy probe (22) in order to address tissue to be removed.</p> |
