Robotic assistance in surgical procedures is a valuable tool that enhances the safety and
efficacy of invasive surgeries. These devices are divided functionally into surgeon …

Robotic and computer assisted surgery are emerging fields, analogous to a baby taking its
first steps. The need for robotic assisted or computer assisted guidance is quite intuitive: an …

Introduction: Pediatric spinal deformity involves a complex 3-dimensional (3D) deformity that
increases the risk of pedicle screw placement due to the close proximity of neurovascular …

Although it is impossible to predict the future, we can learn from trends of the past, and from
the activities of our surgical colleagues. Spine robotics has been available in the United …

Background Minimally invasive techniques in spine surgery have continued to advance as
robotic technology has evolved over several generations. Although traditional techniques for …

The field of spine surgery has changed significantly over the past few decades as once
technological fantasy has become reality. The advent of stereotaxis, intra-operative …

Background: This study assesses intraoperative efficacy, accuracy, and complications of
pedicle screw placement using robotic-assisted navigation (RAN) in pediatric spine surgery …

Introduction: A few articles on robot-assisted pedicle screw placement described the
learning curve but failed to report on the overall operative time, including cases in which the …

Pedicle screw fixation in pediatric spine surgery has become common practice given the
fixation stability and improved curve correction. However, due to proximity to vital structures …
