Abstract: Methods and surgical tools for treating back pain use a spinal facet debridement tool with cautery and denuding action and minimally invasive protocol that can denude and cauterize soft tissue associated with a synovial capsule of the spinal facet joint whereby the synovial capsule between the spinal facet joint is removed by rotating the head of the combination debrider tool at a low rotation speed to scrape and cauterize the end plate receptor region so as to denude and denervate the joint preventing regeneration, and thereby treating back pain.

Abstract: Surgical tools with an upwardly extending tubular support member having a longitudinally extending open channel are provided/described. The tubular support member has a wall surrounding the open channel. The tubular support member may include a base pivotably attached to the tubular support member so that a pivot axis extends above the bottom surface of the base across a bottom portion of the tubular support member to allow the tubular support member to pivot back and forth over a bottom surface of the base. The tubular support member can cooperate with downwardly extending k-wires that anchor to patient bone and/or a strap. One or all of the base, strap and/or k-wires may be used with surgical tools for treating back pain use a spinal facet debridement tool with cautery and denuding action and minimally invasive protocol that can denude and cauterize soft tissue associated with a synovial capsule of the spinal facet joint.
