It was reported that in the middle of a bilateral subthalamic nucleus (stn) deep brain stimulation (dbs) implant, the physician could not get the final cap/cover to fully attach to the burr hole device.The patient had a small skull causing greater than normal curvature.They tried to unlock and lock the scissor mechanism to make sure it was fully locked and tried clicking the cover down a dozen times.The physician decided not to use the cover and put a dog bone down next to the burr hole device to hold the lead. the first side went as planned. they then ran an impedance test and all looked normal.
