Use of the Brown-Roberts-Wells Stereotactic Frame in a Developing Country
Stereotactic surgery planning software has been created for use with the Brown-Roberts-Wells (BRW) stereotactic frame. This software replaces the Hewlett-Packard calculator originally supplied with the BRW frame and provides modern tools for surgery planning to the BRW frame, which facilitate its potential use as a low-cost alternative to the Cosman-Roberts-Wells (CRW) frame in developing count...
متن کاملInitial experience related to the use of the Cosman-Roberts-Wells stereotactic instrument. Technical note.
Initial experience with a new arc-radius design of stereotactic frame that interfaced with the existing components of the Brown-Roberts-Wells instrument is reported. Over a 6-month period, 32 procedures were performed on 23 males and nine female patients (mean age 32 years); these included 27 stereotactic biopsy procedures, two stereotactic implantations of cyst catheter reservoirs, two ventric...
متن کاملEffect of changing patient position from supine to prone on the accuracy of a Brown-Roberts-Wells stereotactic head frame system.
OBJECTIVE Despite the growing popularity of frameless image-guided surgery systems, stereotactic frame systems are widely accepted by neurosurgeons and are commonly used to perform biopsies, functional procedures, and stereotactic radiosurgery. We investigated the accuracy of the Brown-Roberts-Wells stereotactic frame system when the mechanical load on the frame changes between preoperative ima...
متن کاملResection of deep-seated gliomas using neuroimaging for stereotactic placement of guidance catheters.
A simple computed tomography- (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) imaging-guided stereotactic method for guided microsurgical resection of either deep-seated gliomas or tumors adjacent to an eloquent area is described. The technique employs the Brown-Roberts-Wells stereotactic system and twist drills, 2.7 mm in diameter, for the stereotactic placement of 2.4 mm diameter scaled guidance catheters th...
متن کاملMinimally invasive awake craniotomy using Steiner-Lindquist stereotactic laser guidance.
INTRODUCTION Awake craniotomy permits the continuous assessment of intraoperative neurological functions. In addition, stereotactic laser guidance aids in performing minimally invasive procedures related to the radical resection of lesions located in eloquent and non-eloquent brain regions. METHODS Between May 2000 and October 2006, 117 consecutive patients with various intracranial tumoral l...
