German term

aufgefräst

German to English Medical Medical (general) hip surgery
Horrible hip surgery text context:
"Anschliessend wird das Acetabulum in regulärer weise mit den MI-Instrumenten aufgefräst bevor die Pfanne, meist eine Pinnacle-Pfanne, eingesetzt wird."
Any ideas for 'auffräsen' in the context of surgery?
