Robot-assisted implantation improves the precision of component position in minimally invasive TKA.
Minimally invasive and robot-assisted procedures have potential advantages when used for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of this cadaveric study was to examine whether robot-assisted minimally invasive procedures improve TKA alignment after modifying the robotic techniques and instruments. Total knee arthroplasties were performed on 10 pairs of fresh cadaveric femora. Ten knees were ...
متن کاملRobotic-guided minimally-invasive cochleostomy: first results
Due to increasing claims on high precision surgery, robotic assistance is becoming an emerging and highly demanded technology. Especially in surgical procedures in regions with complex anatomy mechatronical devices could help prevent iatrogen damaging of risk structures. In Otolaryngology particular cochlear implantation is a procedure characterized by a high degree of complexity and required a...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Cochlear Implantation Assisted by Bi-planar Device: An Exploratory Feasibility Study in vitro
BACKGROUND A single drilled tunnel from the lateral mastoid cortex to the cochlea via the facial recess is essential for minimally invasive cochlear implant surgery. This study aimed to explore the safety profile of this kind of new image-guided and bi-planar device-assisted surgery procedure in vitro. METHODS Image-guided minimally invasive cochlear implantations were performed on eight cada...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Surgery for Intracochlear Schwannoma Removal and Simultaneous Cochlear Implantation
INTRODUCTION Hearing preservation has not yet been reported in patients undergoing resection of intracochlear schwannomas. This study describes a minimally invasive procedure for intracochlear schwannoma resection with simultaneous cochlear implantation that resulted in good hearing. OBJECTIVE This study aims to describe a minimally invasive procedure for intracochlear schwannoma resection wi...
متن کاملAnalysis and Management of Complications in a Cohort of 1,065 Minimally Invasive Cochlear Implantations
OBJECTIVES To analyze complications associated with minimally invasive cochlear implantation by comparing data from different centers, to discuss major reasons for complications, and to refine implantation techniques to decrease them. PATIENTS Patients who underwent cochlear implantation at our center by the same surgeon (the corresponding author of this article) from March 2006 to March 2015...
