Abstract

Apparatus and methods are provided for use with a first portion of a subject's body, the first portion being adjacent to a second portion of the subject's body. A boring element (20) is configured to bore a hole through the first portion of the subject's body. A housing (31) houses the boring element, the housing being shaped to accommodate and at least partially surround the first and second portions of the subject's body. A sensor (25) is coupled to the boring element and is configured to sense a parameter in a vicinity of the distal end of the boring element. A control unit (26) is configured to terminate the boring of the boring element in response to the sensed parameter indicating that the distal end of the boring element is in a vicinity of the second portion.
