Cannulated surgical drill bit, reusable (A shaft of metal intended to be mounted into an appropriate surgical power tool (e.g., a pneumatic reamer or drilling system handpiece with appropriate torque capacity) and rotated to bore into hard/tough tissues (e.g., bone, cartilage) to clear a channel of the same dimension as the diameter of the shaft. This drill is cannulated, having a hollow centre, and is typically flexible so that it can be fed over a guiding pin that has been placed into the correct position prior to operation. This device is typically used in orthopaedic surgery for clearing of the intramedullary channel prior to the insertion of a prosthetic device. This is a reusable device.)
