ABSTRACT:
A power saw for cutting the bone plug portions of a tendon graft which is to be transplanted. The saw blade is a circular ring of teeth which is oscillated about the circle center by a peripheral drive, thereby enabling circular bone plugs to be cut and eliminating the need to manually trim the bone plugs to an approximately circular cross section.
