Operative steps. (A) The patient is placed in the prone position, and the surgeon is seated. (B) The initial dilator is placed. (C) Sequential dilation is performed. (D) A retractor is placed over the dilator. (E) The disc space is visualized, and a discectomy is performed. (F) The interbody cage is placed after discectomy and endplate preparation. (G) Pedicle screws are placed using computed tomographic navigation and robotic assistance. The participants and all identifiable individuals consented to the publication of their images.
