From the instructions for washing materials in a Spanish hospital:
The materials are divided into categories, and the specific instruction of osteosynthesis materials states:

El material canulado o de osteosíntesis (contiene brocas, ***tarots*** y guías) será sometido a un trabajo manual previo a su carga en la lavadora termodesinfectadora.

= taraud > tap
Explanation:
This doesn't make any sense unless it's a spelling mistake for "taraud", which sounds the same: /taro/. I think it must be. "Taraud" is a French word, and the English equivalent seems to be "tap".

Here's a KudoZ FR-EN question on taraud in this context, which gives "tap", with "bone tap" in the reference:
https://www.proz.com/kudoz/french-to-english/medical-general...

"Taraud : longue vis à fentes sur le corps = arêtes tranchantes "
With a picture.

There are some "tarauds" for osteosynthesis with illustrations in this catalogue, which is searchable:

Anyway, I think "tap" would be a safe bet:
https://www.interglot.com/dictionary/fr/en/search?q=taraud

It seems to be for cutting the thread in bone for a screw. In this catalogue there are "tap drills", but

Sorry, my explanation got garbled. The last paragraph was supposed go earlier, and I meant to continue: "but I don't know whether "tarauds" could refer to them", with this reference (see pp. 5-6):

neutral  Charles Davis: Where did you find awl for pasamachos, Liz? An awl is normally called a "punzón" and it's for perforating, not cutting screw threads.

neutral  philgoddard: I don't understand why you mention pasamacho.

Reference: tap drill / tap

Reference information:
Junto a brocas y guías diría que tap drill es lo más ajustado, aunque el uso común en este contexto para referirse al instrumento específico es simplemente tap.

After drilling holes of 2.5 mm in diameter and tapping with a 3.5-mm tap, stainless steel cortical screws with a diameter of 3.5 mm and lengths of 26 mm to 32 mm were placed bicortically

En fin, aunque he seguido una intuición que resultó equivocada, he terminado por llegar a la misma conclusión que Charles (aunque por un camino muuucho más largo). Sólo por compartir parte del viaje -y por si sirve;

Terraja (tarraja)/terrajado aluden al instrumento o acción de labrar la rosca de un tornillo
Die/Dies sería el equivalente en inglés (aunque no he podido confirmar su uso en ámbito médico)

Die (noun)
plural dies: any of various tools or devices for imparting a desired shape, form, or finish to a material or for impressing an object or material: such as
b: a hollow internally threaded screw-cutting tool used for forming screw threads
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/die

Hacer roscas (tornillos) con tarraja
https://youtu.be/CdW21zR_-4Y

El taraud en cambio hace alusión no al labrado del tornillo sino a la creación de una rosca en el interior de un cilindro (al instrumento que labra la rosca en el interior de un cilindro).

Le taraud est un outil destiné à réaliser un taraudage, c'est-à-dire un filetage à l'intérieur d'un tube initialement lisse.
https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taraud

Tap
a tool for forming an internal screw thread
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/tap

Lo de mango en T y portamachos hace referencia en realidad al instrumento o barra horizontal (pej. terraja porta machos) que sujeta y permite girar al "macho" (taraud), que sería propiamente la especie de "tornillo" que crea la rosca en el interior del cilindro (tap drill).
