Abstract: A neuro stimulator adapter for a tissue removal device is disclosed. In certain arrangements, the adapter includes an engagement sleeve and a hub. The engagement sleeve is fixedly connected to a portion of the hub. In certain arrangements, the hub further has a contact assembly disposed therein, the contact assembly configured to be connected to an electrical source to deliver neurostimlation to the tissue removal device at a distal end thereof.

Abstract: A surgical access assembly may include an outer sheath defined by an open distal end and an open proximal end and including a hollow body portion therebetween, and a flexible tool delivery device having a hub and a guide tube, the hub configured to selectively secure to a rim at the proximal end of the outer sheath, and the guide tube configured to extend at least partially into the outer sheath and provide a flexible tool proximate to a tissue.

Abstract: Selectively lockable holding arrangements for a surgical access assembly are disclosed. One holding arrangement includes a body portion, an engagement barrel and a retaining member configured as a hook at a distal end of the body portion. The engagement barrel is position on a proximal end of the body portion and is configured to be selectively rotated about the body portion when operatively connected to a surgical holding arrangement. A rotation brake is mounted on the body section. The rotation brake is selectively operable to lock the engagement barrel against rotation.

Abstract: Selectively lockable holding arrangements for a surgical access assembly are disclosed. One holding arrangement includes a proximal body portion, a distal body portion, a retaining member, and a rotation brake. The distal body portion is adjacent the proximal body portion and configured to be selectively rotated relative to the proximal body portion. The retaining member is at a distal end of the distal body portion. The rotation brake extends from the proximal body portion to the distal body portion and is selectively operable to lock the distal body portion against rotation with respect to the proximal body portion.
