A surgical apparatus includes a debriding device, a hollow tube, and an irrigation assembly. The debriding device is fitted at a distal end of the surgical apparatus and is configured to debride tissue from a debriding site in a patient body. The hollow tube is configured to evacuate the debrided tissue away from the debriding site. The irrigation assembly is configured to apply irrigation fluid, via one or more orifices formed in the hollow tube, to the debrided tissue being evacuated.
