A lead fixation device for attaching a deep brain stimulation lead within in a burr hole in a human skull. The lead fixation device may comprise a mounting plate having first and second arms. The first arm may comprise a first flange, a first mounting hole, and a first inner wall. The second arm may comprise a second flange, a second mounting hole, and a second inner wall. The first and second arms may comprise first and second arcuate grooves located on the first and second inner walls. When the lead device is in a closed position the first and second arcuate grooves form a guide channel and the first and second inner walls form an exit channel to receive the lead when the lead fixation device is in a closed position.
