Abstract
In medical surgery, bone drilling is an inevitable procedure. The thermal necrosis in the drilling process can affect post-operative recovery. In this study, the method of drill bit precooling is proposed in bone drilling with robot assisted system. The influence of process parameters on the drilling temperature were investigated and analyzed. The results showed that the method of drill bit precooling could reduce the drilling temperature. The drill bit starting temperature and the feed rate were more important parameters on the drilling temperature compared with rotational speed and cooling length of the drill bit. The quadratic regression model obtained from response surface experiments can predicted the drilling temperature correctly under the range of process parameters in this study. The optimal parameter combination is rotational speed = 1610 rpm, feed rate = 0.5 mm/s, the starting temperature of drill bit = 8°C, and the cooling length = 34.8 mm. The results provide an effective method to reduce thermal necrosis of bone cells in drilling.

Abstract
Bone drilling is a common surgical operation, which often causes an increase in bone temperature. A temperature above 47 °C for 60 s is the critical temperature that can be allowed in bone drilling because of thermal bone osteonecrosis. Therefore, thermal management in bone drilling by a rotating heat pipe was proposed in this study. A new rotating heat pipe drill was designed, and its heat transfer mechanism and thermal management performance was investigated at occasions with different input heat flux and rotational speed. Results show that boiling and convection heat transfer occurred in the evaporator and film condensation appears in the condenser. The thermal resistance decreases with the increase of the rotational speed at the range from 1200 to 2000 rpm and it decreases as the input heat flux rises from 5000 to 10,000 W/m2 and increases at 20,000 W/m2. The temperature on the drill tip was found to be 46.9 °C with an input heat flux of 8000 W/m2 and a rotational speed of 2000 rpm. The new designed rotating heat pipe drill showed a good prospect for application to bone drilling operations.

Abstract
Undue heat production in surgical bone drilling leads to osteonecrosis and can be an important cause of failure of osteosynthesis, impaired healing, and loosening of implants following orthopedic surgery. The present work aims to minimize heat production below the critical temperature for thermal osteonecrosis (i.e., 47°C) and obviate thermal bone damage due to drilling. A total of 20 samples from the shaft of the human femur were obtained at autopsies and drilling was performed at room temperature by an operation theater (OT) compatible rotary ultrasonic bone drilling (RUBD) machine. K-type thermocouples were used to measure the temperature rise during drilling and the physical changes of the bone samples were observed by infrared gama camera. Light microscopic and transmission electron microscopic studies were performed to evaluate the bone cell damage. The maximum temperature recorded in RUBD (40.6 ± 1.3°C) was much below the critical temperature for thermal osteonecrosis (p < .05) at the rotational speed of 2000 rpm. Light microscopic and ultrastructural studies also revealed that there was no appreciable damage to the bone cells. Conventional bone drilling (CD) on the other hand recorded much higher temperature (66.6 ± 3.2°C), tissue burn and bone cell necrosis. Hence, RUBD machine has a potentiality for its use in orthopedic surgery and may provide better results.

Abstract
Heat generation during bone cutting by sagittal saw may lead to temperature rise and possible incidence of thermal necrosis. The aim of the present research is to examine the effect of saw blade oscillation rate, blade feed rate, and irrigation by physiological saline solution on the bone temperature rise during sawing in order to determine the desired conditions for reducing the extent of thermal damage. For this purpose, empirical tests of bovine femur cutting were performed in 15 states, including five levels for the blade oscillation rate (10,000-18,000 cpm with 2000 cpm intervals) and three levels for the feed rate (10-30 mm.min-1 with 10 mm.min-1 intervals) for dry conditions; and five states, including five levels for the blade oscillation rate (10,000-18,000 cpm with 2000 cpm intervals) and one level in feed rate of 20 mm.min-1 for the irrigation conditions. The results indicated that the bone temperature rise had a direct relationship with the blade oscillation rate and an inverse relationship with its feed rate. In the state of no cooling, the minimum temperature rise (ΔT = 65.45°C) occurred at the blade speed of 10,000 cpm and feed rate of 30 mm.min-1, while in the state of sawing with irrigation, the temperature rise almost did not exceed the allowable range (ΔT ≤ 10°C). The results suggested that to lower the possibility of incidence of osteonecrosis in the bone resection by sagittal saw, cooling with physiological saline solution or application of the minimum blade oscillation rate and maximum feed rate is recommended.

Abstract
Bone drilling is an important procedure in medical orthopedic surgery and it is inevitable that heat will be generated during the drilling process and higher temperatures can cause thermal damage to the bone tissue near the drilled hole. Therefore, the capability to obtain the cortical bone drilling temperature distribution area can have great significance for medical bone surgery. Based on the theory of heat transfer, a predictive model for cortical bone drilling temperature distribution was established. The energy distribution coefficient in cortical bone drilling was derived, based on conjugate gradient inversion. A cortical bone drilling experiment platform was built to verify the temperature distribution prediction model. The results show that the model of cortical bone drill temperature distribution could predict accurately the drilling temperature distribution, both for different depths and for different radial distances. Additionally, the effects of different drilling conditions (spindle speed, feed rate, drill diameter) on the temperature of drilling cortical bone were considered.
