Abstract

See full text

A surgical apparatus for removing deposits from an interior of a vessel comprising a rotatable shaft and a rotatable tip mounted to the rotatable shaft which is rotatable about its longitudinal axis upon rotation of the shaft to remove deposits from the interior of the vessel. The tip has a distal portion, a proximal portion and an intermediate portion between the distal and proximal portions. The intermediate portion is defined by a plurality of transverse cross-sectional areas, wherein each transverse cross-sectional area defines first and second axes substantially perpendicular to each other to define a width dimension along a first axis and a height dimension along the second axis. The height dimension is greater than the width dimension.
