As drilling generates substantial bone thermomechanical damage due to inappropriate
cutting tool selection, researchers have proposed various approaches to mitigate this …

This study aims to summarize the current state of scientific knowledge on factors that
contribute to heat generation during the bone drilling process and how these aspects can be …

During bone drilling surgery, the bone drill can generate drilling force and frictional heat,
which may lead to mechanical and thermal damage to the bone tissue. This paper presents …

In the process of repairing fractures in the bone region with orthopedic injuries, the
application of supporting and strengthening the bone tissue with screws, wires, rods, and …

Thermal injuries inflicted during bone drilling significantly affect the success rate of surgery,
hence, it is important to control thermal injury through temperature reduction. Low-frequency …

Thermal effects during bone surgery pose a common challenge, whether using mechanical
tools or lasers. An irrigation system is a standard solution to cool the tissue and reduce …

Featured Application This research provides a “mini intraoperative guide” for geometrical
and dimensional planning of the medial wedge open high tibial osteotomy. The values …

Abstract Background and Objective Conventional surgical drill bits suffer from several
drawbacks, including extreme heat generation, breakage, jam, and undesired breakthrough …

To benefit tissue removal and postoperative rehabilitation, increased efficiency and
accuracy and reduced operating force are strongly required in the osteotomy. A novel …

Excessive heat generated from wrong combinations of bone-drilling parameters could kill
the bone cells (thermal osteonecrosis). This paper combines numerical, experimental, and …
