Abstract
A surgical hand piece has a source of ultrasonic energy connected to a one-piece member that transmits the ultrasonic energy. The one-piece member is connected directly to the source of ultrasonic energy without intervening structure. A distal end of the member is a surgical work tip for performing surgery. The member transmits the ultrasonic energy to the work tip. The member is a one-piece structure, whereby the handpiece is less expensive to make than members with multiple piece structures.
