A surgical rasping and/or shaving system functions in multiple orthopedic applications, including but not limited to shoulder, knee, hip, wrist, ankle, spinal, or other joint procedures. The system may comprise a tissue removal member with a rasping and/or shaving head which may be low profile and offer a flat cutting/rasping/shaving surface, or with a cutting head with at least one cutting edge. The tissue removal member is configured to be driven by an attached hub that translates a rotational movement into a reciprocating motion. Suction for removal of bone fragments or other tissues is provided through an opening spaced apart from or adjacent to the rasping surface. A radiofrequency ablation (RF) electrode may be carried on the system to provide ablation or coagulation of soft tissues.

1. A tissue removal device comprising: a first cam, wherein the first cam comprises an undulating cam surface;a hub axially fixed to the first cam, wherein the hub is rotatable relative to the first cam about an axis of rotation;a second cam between the hub and the first cam, wherein the second cam is rotationally fixed to the hub, wherein the second cam is axially slidable relative to the hub along the axis of rotation, wherein the second cam comprises an undulating cam surface;a translation member comprising a distal working member and an opposite proximal portion, wherein the translation member is rotationally fixed to the first cam, wherein the translation member is axially slidable relative to the first cam along the axis of rotation, wherein the translation member is axially fixed relative to the second cam, wherein the translation member is rotatable relative to the second cam about the axis of rotation; and,wherein, during rotation of the hub about the axis of rotation, the second cam rotates with the hub relative to the first cam, wherein the cam surface of the first cam and the cam surface of the second cam cooperate to convert rotation of the hub and second cam to reciprocating translation of the second cam and the translation member relative to the first cam along the axis of rotation, and the second cam and the translation member thereby undergo reciprocal translation relative to the first cam along the axis of rotation. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the cam surface of the first cam comprises alternating high points and low points, wherein the high points protrude farther toward the second cam than do the low points, wherein the cam surface of the second cam comprises alternating high points and low points, wherein the high points protrude farther toward the first cam than do the low points. 3. The system of claim 1, comprising at least one spherical ball bearing between the cam surface of the first cam and the cam surface of the second cam. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein at least one of the cam surface of the first cam and the cam surface of the second cam is concave to complement the at least one ball bearing. 5. The system of claim 1, comprising a housing rigidly fixed to the first cam, wherein the housing is axially fixed relative to the hub. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the hub comprises at least one driving surface extending parallel to the axis of rotation, wherein the second cam comprises at least one drive surface extending parallel to the axis of rotation, wherein the driving surface and the drive surface form an interface through which rotational forces are transmitted from the hub to the second cam. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the working member comprises a tissue removal member. 8. A reciprocating instrument for use with a powered rotary handpiece, the reciprocating instrument comprising: a tissue removal member comprising a top surface, an opposite working surface, and an aperture, wherein the working surface comprises a cutting edge, wherein the aperture extends through the tissue removal member between the top and working surfaces;a hub comprising a handpiece connection feature connectable to the handpiece;a first cam, wherein the first cam comprises a cam surface that comprises alternating high points and low points;a second cam rotationally fixed to the hub and axially fixed to the tissue removal member, wherein the second cam comprises a cam surface with alternating high points and low points, wherein the high points protrude farther toward the first cam than do the low points;wherein the high points of the cam surface of the first cam protrude farther toward the second cam than do the low points; and,wherein, when the handpiece connection feature is connected to the handpiece and the handpiece is powered, the hub and the second cam rotate relative to the tissue removal member about an axis of rotation, and the second cam and tissue removal member reciprocally translate relative to the hub along the axis of rotation. 9. The reciprocating instrument of claim 8, wherein the first cam is rigidly fixed to the hub; and,wherein, when the handpiece connection feature is connected to the handpiece and the handpiece is powered, the second cam and the first cam cooperate to cause the second cam and tissue removal member to reciprocally translate relative to the hub along the axis of rotation. 10. The reciprocating instrument of claim 9, comprising: a housing rigidly fixed to the first cam, wherein the housing is axially fixed relative to the hub, and wherein the second cam is between the hub and the first cam. 11. The reciprocating instrument of claim 8, wherein the working surface comprises multiple cutting edges. 12. The reciprocating instrument of claim 8, wherein the tissue removal member comprises multiple apertures extending through the tissue removal member between the top and working surfaces. 13. The reciprocating instrument of claim 8, wherein the tissue removal member comprises a suction port near the cutting edge. 14. A reciprocating instrument for use with a powered rotary handpiece, the reciprocating instrument comprising: a tissue removal member comprising a cutting edge;a hub comprising a handpiece connection feature connectable to the handpiece;a first cam axially fixed to the hub, wherein the first cam comprises a cam surface; anda second cam rotationally fixed to the hub and axially fixed to the tissue removal member, wherein the second cam comprises a cam surface;at least one spherical ball bearing between the cam surface of the first cam and the cam surface of the second cam; and,wherein, when the handpiece connection feature is connected to the handpiece and the handpiece is powered, the hub and the second cam rotate relative to the tissue removal member about an axis of rotation, and the second cam and the first cam cooperate to cause the second cam and the tissue removal member to reciprocally translate relative to the hub and the first cam along the axis of rotation. 15. The reciprocating instrument of claim 14, comprising: a housing rigidly fixed to the first cam, wherein the housing is axially fixed to the hub, and wherein the second cam is between the hub and the first cam. 16. The reciprocating instrument of claim 14, wherein the cam surface of the first cam undulates, wherein the cam surface of the second cam undulates, wherein the cam surface of the first cam and the cam surface of the second cam cooperate to cause the second cam and the tissue removal member to reciprocally translate relative to the hub and the first cam along the axis of rotation. 17.
