 note = {Although closing force of cobalt alloy clip is well studied, there is only little information of titanium alloy clip available in the literature. In the present study, we examined and compared closing forces of various types and points of cerebral titanium and cobalt aneurysm clips for cerebral aneurysms. Straight, temporary, bayonet, angled, and fenestrated titanium or cobalt alloy clips were tested by measuring the closing forces at various points along their blade length. Closing forces of all the tested clips linearly increased from tip to base of clip blades. Sugita Titanium II clips had bigger closing forces than Elgiloy clips in all type clips except for the temporary clips. The closing forces of Sugita Titanium II and Yasargil titanium clips were similar in straight permanent type clip although there were some differences in closing forces between other types of Sugita and Yasargil clips. Our data showed that the closing forces differed depending not only on manufacturers but also on materials and shapes., Article, NEUROSURGICAL REVIEW. 36(1):133-137 (2013)},
