Surgical methods for the use of such oscillating rasps are also disclosed. The oscillating rasp includes an attachment head configured to be secured in a chuck of an oscillating tool, and a cutting head secured to the attachment head. The cutting head includes a cutting surface extending posteriorly from the longitudinal axis of the oscillating surgical rasp.
