Abstract
A tissue disruption device () for deployment via a rigid conduit () includes a rotary tissue disruptor () insertable along the conduit with its axis of rotation () parallel to the direction of conduit elongation (). An angular displacement mechanism allows selective displacement of the rotary tissue disruptor () such that the axis of rotation () sweeps through a range of angular motion. A rotary drive is linked to the rotary tissue disruptor so as to drive the rotary tissue disruptor in rotary motion while the rotary tissue disruptor is at a range of angular positions within the range of angular motion.
