Abstract
A cutting accessory for use with a powered surgical handpiece includes an elongated shaft, a tissue working member, and a proximal section. The elongated shaft has proximal and distal ends, and a longitudinal axis. The working member is attached to the distal end of the shaft. The proximal section extends proximally from the distal end and includes a plurality of faces extending inwardly from an outer surface of the shaft. Each face has at least one shallow portion and is shaped to receive a clamping member. At least two of the faces are arranged linearly, extending along the shaft proximal section. A flat extends distally forward of the distalmost face, and is located a distance from the shaft longitudinal axis greater than the distance the shallow portions are located from the longitudinal axis and less than the distance the outer surface of the shaft is from the longitudinal axis.
