Abstract
Bone Drilling is one of the most essential procedures in orthopaedic surgery and it is executed for various purposes. Fixing the bone in fractures, non:::union:::, deformities, mal:::union:::, and cosmetic lengthening corrections, are the main purpose for internal and external fixations. In both internal and external fixations, use of pins or screws drilling becomes necessary. One of the important issues we face while drilling, is heat escalation of the drill and its transference to the bone causing thermal osteonecrosis.
