Bone–like Polyethelyne Burr–hole Cover

Abstract

The "bone-like" burr-hole cover provides adequate protection, biocompatibility and cosmesis and is simple to use. Alternative implants can be toxic to surrounding tissues, costly and time consuming to apply. This high-density polyethylene cover is compatible with surrounding tissue as well as being of a porous nature and the material it is made from offers high tensile strength for adequate protection.
