Abstract
A suction/irrigator surgical instrument comprises a replaceable cartridge containing the entirety of the fluid flow path for the instrument and a reusable flow-control member having trigger-actuated levers for selectively opening and occluding a portion of the fluid flow path when the two members are affixed to one another, in piggy-back fashion, to form a pistol-grip for the instrument.
