Disadvantages of Minimally
Invasive Spine Surgery
› Technically challenging
› Inadequate visualization
› Disorienting
› Difficult to manipulate
instruments & structures
› ? Iatrogenic neural injury ?

High Complication Rates
Resulted in a previous
generation of spine
surgeons being
disabused of MIS

The “Disconnect”
MIS Adoption remains at less than 20% of lumbar
fusion surgeries
Reasons:
• Safety concerns
• Lack of familiarity
• Limited applications
• Increased work effort
• Financial disincentive

So what is the role of
Robotics & Navigation?

Who Needs Robotics?

•

Too expensive
It will slow me down
I’m doing just fine
Don’t fix what isn’t broken
Just helps place K-wires
Marketing ploy

“Maybe it’s good for other surgeons, but I don’t
need it”

Doesn’t technology add to cost?

Complication Avoidance

12/14/2016

Pedicle Screw Misplacement
Problem:
The radiographic breach rate is > 5% in open surgeries
Solutions:
1. Experience
2. Intra-operative visualization/palpation
3. Proper X-ray guidance
4. Neuronavigation
5. Neuromonitoring
Good judgment comes from experience, and
experience comes from bad judgment

Can MIS Techniques Get You There?

• Axial rotation &
deformity are no
longer a challenge
• Stepping-stone

Robotics MIS

Cons
• Requires one mm CT
scan
• Capital equipment costs

Why Surgical Guidance
• Surgical Planning
• Create total 3D custom plan for patient
• Consider challenging anatomy
• Optimize implant size and placement
• Accommodate MIS (proximal facet joint, tulip head
alignment, rod passage)
• Intra-op Guidance
• Allows OR staff to be in sync with surgical plan
• Streamline implant sizing and sequence to OR staff
• Execute surgical plan
• Lock trajectory any point, regardless of patient position

How it Works
1. Create Surgical Plan

•
•
•
•

Upload pre-op CT
Position implants with
Planning software
Assess in all 3 planes
Consider global
alignment

Can also create plan Intra-op with O-arm scan (“Scan and Plan”)

Potential Advantages
• Less radiation
– Surgical Team vs. MISS with Flouroscopic Assist
– ? Patient (requires preop or intraop CT scan (similar to
navigation)

• Less exposure
– If employed in MISS or MAST Setting

• Accuracy = Big Question
– Freehand?
– Navigation?
– Flouro Assist?

• Based on “segmentation” vs Navigation (alignment)

Adult Deformity

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS:
57 yo F with several years of back and leg pain with scoliosis
- Low back pain 70%
- Leg pain 30%. right hip and right calf pain
- Has right calf weakness and numbness
- Had an injection 3 months ago, which helped her for a little it.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION:
- Right EHL 4/5, gastroc 4/5
- Decreased sensation on the lateral aspect of right leg and right foot
IMAGING:
- Xray: scoliosis of approximately 50 degrees, fractional concavity on the right
hand side. She has overall good sagittal balance.
- MRI: disc desiccation most prevalent at L4-L5 and L5-S1. She also has
spondylosis and degenerative disc disease as well as facet hypertrophy.

1. Work Flow Changes
1. Requires screw preparation first
2. Cannot remove bone

2. Mandates CT scan (pre or intraop)
1. Less radiation for OR Team (vs. flouro)
2. More radiation for patient (vs Freehand or flouro)

3. Time
1. More than Freehand Technique
2. 30 Studies
Increased accuracy
Decreased radiation
Decreased complications
