Abstract
CIRQ® Robotic Alignment Module is a second generation of Brainlab® (Munich, Germany) robotic arm (1). Previous studies have described use of the first generation with the so called passive assistance (2-5). In this operative video we demonstrate robotic-guided K-wire implantation using second generation with active assistance, followed by navigated pedicle screw implantation in lumbar spine in a patient with instability due to infection(6). Workflow includes preoperative screw planning, iCT with automatic registration, fusion with preoperative imaging and review of the preplanned screw trajectories, robotic-assisted insertion of K-wires and navigated insertion of pedicle screws, followed by control iCT scan(1, 7). Our operative video adds to the growing body of literature demonstrating minimally invasive robotic assisted spinal fusion techniques(8).
期刊介绍:
World Neurosurgery has an open access mirror journal World Neurosurgery: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The journal''s mission is to:
-To provide a first-class international forum and a 2-way conduit for dialogue that is relevant to neurosurgeons and providers who care for neurosurgery patients. The categories of the exchanged information include clinical and basic science, as well as global information that provide social, political, educational, economic, cultural or societal insights and knowledge that are of significance and relevance to worldwide neurosurgery patient care.
-To act as a primary intellectual catalyst for the stimulation of creativity, the creation of new knowledge, and the enhancement of quality neurosurgical care worldwide.
-To provide a forum for communication that enriches the lives of all neurosurgeons and their colleagues; and, in so doing, enriches the lives of their patients.
Topics to be addressed in World Neurosurgery include: EDUCATION, ECONOMICS, RESEARCH, POLITICS, HISTORY, CULTURE, CLINICAL SCIENCE, LABORATORY SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, OPERATIVE TECHNIQUES, CLINICAL IMAGES, VIDEOS
