Abstract EN
Bone drilling is widely used in orthopedic surgery.
Microcracks will be generated in bone drilling, which may cause fatigue damages and stress fractures.
Fresh bovine cortical bones were drilled via vibrational and conventional ways.
Drilling operations were performed by a dynamic material testing machine, which can provide the vibration while maintaining uniform feed motion.
The drill site and bone debris were observed through scanning electron microscope (SEM).
The experimental results showed that fewer and shorter micro-cracks were formed in vibrational drilling than those formed in conventional way.
And the surface morphology of bone debris from two different drilling ways was also quite different.
It is expected that vibrational drilling in orthopedic surgery operation could decrease the microdamage to the bone, which could lower the incidence of stress fracture and contribute to the postoperative recovery.
