The head may be formed of abrasive material, e.g., carborundum, or may be formed of non-abrasive material, e.g., carbon or stainless steel or a ceramic, with its profiled surface having abrasive particles bonded thereto, such as carborundum or industrial diamonds. The head is preferably interchangeably connected to the drive shaft to enable use of heads with variations of profile and abrasive qualities.
The tubular member and/or the drive shaft may incorporate one or more cannula, for an irrigation and/or extraction system for removal of bone debris.
According to another aspect of the present invention, a cutting tool for cutting tissue adjacent the internal end of a hole drilled in a bone is similar to the abrading tool described above, being modified by replacing the abrading head by a head provided with cutting edges along all or part of its profile, the cutter head likewise preferably being interchangeably connected to the drive shaft to enable use of heads with variations of profile and cutting ability.
