Abstract: An arthroscopic drill for insertion into a human joint of a human body comprising an elongate body extending between a proximal end which, during use, remains external to the human body and a distal end which, when in an operative configuration, is positioned in the human joint adjacent to a target structure within the human body (e.g. preferably a joint surface); a drill bit having a proximal portion adjacent the distal end of the elongated body, the drill bit having a distal portion extending to the target structure; and an introducer sheath having a lumen with an inner diameter of at least 2 mm and a bending stiffness of approximately 0.08 Nm2, wherein the operative configuration, the elongate body extends through the introducer sheath.
