Abstract: A system for securing an implantable probe or lead within a brain of a patient includes a burr hole cap, an elongated sheath, an elongated dilator and a plurality of elongated probes. The burr hole cap has an approximately cylindrical portion, a proximal end and a distal end. A flange portion of the burr hole cap is disposed at the proximal end. A septum is disposed within the cylindrical portion. The elongated sheath has a lumen extending therein. The elongated dilator is disposed within the lumen of the sheath. The dilator has a longitudinal length that is greater than the longitudinal length of the sheath. When the dilator is disposed in the lumen of the peelable sheath, the dilator and sheath may pierce into and through the septum. Each of the plurality of elongated probes are disposed within the lumen of the sheath. The probe has a longitudinal length that is greater than the longitudinal length of the sheath.
