A lead fixation assembly and method of using the same are disclosed. The lead fixation assembly includes a cover and a cap. The cover includes an aperture extending through a cover body and is adapted to fit within an opening formed or occurring in a patient's body. One or more leads may be oriented through the aperture before or after fitting the cover in such an opening. The cover body includes a top surface having a plurality of elements. Each lead oriented through the aperture is arranged on or in and among the elements and may be secured thereby. The cap is adapted to be removably secured to the cover, minimize exposure to the patient via the opening, and, optionally, secure the leads. The leads are passed through an opening in the cap to enable the leads to extend away from the body.
