ABSTRACT:
A tip unit is removably affixed to and extends forward from the barrel of a surgical handpiece, for fluid transfer with respect to the surgical site. The tip unit includes a casing extending forward from the handpiece barrel and a fluid transfer tube extending forward from the casing. The fluid transfer tube extends in sealed relation through axially aligned holes in the front and rear walls of the casing for connection with a fluid transfer unit in the handpiece. A lamp at the far end of the tube is energized by a battery unit in the casing under control of a switch accessible at the outside of the casing. A light transmitting enclosure at the far end of the tube protects against liquid contact with the lamp.
