First-in-human experience of a portable electrical drill with smart autostop for bedside external ventricular drain placement.
J Clin Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, United States. Electronic address:
Article Synopsis
- Timely placement of external ventricular drains (EVDs) is crucial in emergency neurosurgery, and the introduction of portable electrical drills like the Hubly drill offers potential improvements in the procedure.
- In a study, two patients successfully received EVDs using the new portable drill, with quick access times and no complications observed during the procedures.
- The findings suggest that the smart autostop feature of the drill could enhance safety and efficiency in EVD placement, highlighting the need for further development and research in this technology.
Comparison of diagnostic yields, operative times, and post-operative hemorrhage between twist drill versus burr hole craniotomy approaches for stereotactic needle brain biopsy.

Stereotactic frameless needle brain biopsy is a common neurosurgical procedure performed via twist drill or open burr hole approaches. We aim to compare diagnostic yields and surgical outcomes to delineate the safety and efficacy of both approaches. A retrospective database of all stereotactic needle biopsy procedures performed at a single institution over 30 months was conglomerated.

Technology like micro-hole drilling has progressed because of the machining industry's demand for high-precision micro components. Although micro drilling can be duplicated in theory, many challenges must be overcome before this becomes a reality. Micro-drilling with a thermal-mechanical interaction in the alloy is simulated in Abaqus.

Clin Neurol Neurosurg
November 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Mount Sinai Health System, New York, NY 10029, USA. Electronic address:
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the effectiveness of middle meningeal artery embolization (MMAE) for treating chronic subdural hematomas (cSDH) compared to traditional surgical methods like craniotomy and burr hole evacuation.
- A systematic literature review analyzed available meta-analyses, finding that MMAE led to fewer reoperations and recurrences, but this was supported by weak evidence.
- The conclusion highlights a lack of substantial evidence regarding MMAE's benefits over conventional treatments, indicating the need for more research in this area.
Soft material drilling: A thermo-mechanical analysis of polyurethane foam for biomimetic bone scaffolds and optimization of process parameters using Taguchi method.

Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Technology, Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 02600, Arau, Perlis, Malaysia.
Drilling is a widely employed technique in machining processes, crucial for efficient material removal. However, when applied to living tissues, its invasiveness must be carefully considered. This study investigates drilling processes on polyurethane foam blocks mimicking human bone mechanical properties.
