Abstract
Knee arthroscopic debridement, total hip arthroplasty(THA) and artificial femoral-head replacement are the major treatments for joint diseases, and they have a high degree of dependence on various complicated surgical tools. Structure design, manufacturing precision and cutting performance of surgical tools are important factors that influence the success of operation. This review introduces the arthroscopic cutting tools, acetabular reamers, starter awls and femoral broaches which are used in arthroscopic debridement and THA, And this review also analyzes structural characteristics and cutting mechanism of those surgical tools, and point out design principles, problems and research directions in the design and manufacture.
