    Abstract: A medical ultrasound device includes: an ultrasound generator and an elongated probe. A cross-sectional surface of the probe at a distal end to which ultrasound oscillation is propagated is perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the probe, and the cross-sectional surface has a shape identical to a shape of a cross-sectional surface of an anchor to form, in a bone, a bottomed hole for placing the anchor and having a shape to prevent rotation of the anchor in the bottomed hole. An area of the cross-sectional surface of the probe at the distal end is larger than an area of a cross-sectional surface of the probe at a proximal end. The distal end includes a treatment portion that expands outward relative to the proximal end and that is formed in a first direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and in a second direction different from the first direction.
