Cannulated surgical drill bits are hollow, metal shafts designed to create precise channels in hard tissues like bone or cartilage during orthopaedic procedures. Their central hole allows them to be guided over a pin, ensuring accurate placement for implants or prosthetics, and they’re powered by surgical tools to drill efficiently.
These devices are typically single-use, regulated as surgical instruments, and may include accessories like guiding pins or manual drivers. Classification and supply vary by jurisdiction, but they’re generally intended for controlled medical environments where sterility and precision are critical.
