A debris removal system includes an elongated shaft extending from a proximal end to a distal end and including a shaft lumen, the shaft being configured to be inserted through a bodily lumen to a target surgical site, a vibration motor coupled to the elongated shaft via a vibration collar, the vibration motor including a rotatable shaft and at least one weight coupled to the rotatable shaft, the weight being asymmetrically shaped about a central axis of the shaft such that rotation of the shaft creates vibrational energy along the length of the elongated shaft to dislodge debris within the target surgical site, and a vacuum pump connected to the elongated shaft and configured to vacuum dislodged debris from the target surgical site through the shaft lumen.
