A scraping instrument is disclosed that includes a handle assembly having a trigger. The scraping instrument also includes an elongate shaft having an inner lumen extending therethrough along a longitudinal axis between proximal and distal ends thereof. The proximal end of the elongate shaft is connected with the handle assembly. A control rod extends through the inner lumen of the elongate shaft hand has a first end connected with the trigger and a second end extending outside the distal end of the elongate shaft. The second end of the control rod includes a connection pin. A yoke is connected with the distal end of the elongate shaft. A curette having a scraping member and a connection member is pivotally connected with the yoke. Upon compression of the trigger the control rod is forced to move along the longitudinal axis thereby causing the curette to rotate along a latitudinal axis.
