  • TiRobot-assisted surgery by O-arm navigation system for percutaneous minimally invasive treatment of posterior pelvic ring injury

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of TiRobot-assisted surgery by O-arm navigation system for percutaneous minimally invasive treatment of posterior pelvic ring injury. Methods The clinical data of 76 patients with posterior pelvic ring injury between January 2016 and June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 45 cases were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation assisted by TiRobot and O-arm navigation system (study group), 31 cases were treated with minimally invasive percutaneous sacroiliac screw fixation under the guidance of C-arm X-ray machine (control group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, Tile classification, time from injury to operation between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, the times of nail track adjustment, and intraoperative fluoroscopy times were recorded. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated by Matta score. At last follow-up, Majeed score was used to evaluate the recovery of pelvic function. ResultsA total of 72 screws were implanted in the study group, with a median of 1 (1, 2) screws per patient. In the control group, 47 screws were implanted, with a median of 1 (1, 2) screws per patient. There was no significant difference in the number of screws between the two groups (Z=−0.392, P=0.695). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, times of nail track adjustment, and intraoperative fluoroscopy times in the study group were significantly less than those in the control group (P<0.05). All patients were followed up 6-24 months (mean, 14 months). No serious complications was found after operation and during follow-up. Matta score was used to evaluate the quality of fracture reduction at 1 week after operation, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (Z=−1.135, P=0.256). At last follow-up, there was no significant difference of Majeed score between the two groups (Z=−1.279, P=0.201). ConclusionTiRobot-assisted surgery by O-arm navigation system is a reliable surgical method for the treatment of posterior pelvic ring injury, which can reduce the operation time and fluoroscopy times when compared with the traditional operation under the guidance of C-arm X-ray machine. The safety, accuracy, and efficiency of the operation were improved.

  • Short-term effectiveness of TiRobot combined with O-arm navigation system in minimally invasive treatment of hindfoot fracture

    Objective To investigate the short-term effectiveness of TiRobot combined with O-arm navigation system in the minimally invasive treatment of hindfoot fracture. Methods Between March 2019 and March 2021, 25 patients with hindfoot fractures were admitted. There were 14 males and 11 females, with an average age of 51.7 years (range, 19-76 years). The causes of injuries included falling from height in 17 cases and traffic accident in 8 cases. The interval between injury and operation was 1-3 days (mean, 2.1 days). There were 16 cases of calcaneus fracture, 7 cases of talus fracture, and 2 cases of calcaneus and talus fractures. According to Sanders classification criteria, the calcaneus fractures were classified as type Ⅱ in 10 cases and type Ⅲ in 8 cases; according to the Hawkins classification criteria, the talus fractures were classified as type Ⅱ in 4 cases and type Ⅲ in 5 cases. Preoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score was 48.1±9.1. During operation, the fractures were fixed with the percutaneous cannulated screws with the assistance of the TiRobot combined with the O-arm navigation system. The operation time, hospital stay, and the occurrence of related complications were recorded. X-ray films were reviewed to evaluate the fracture healing and the occurrence of talus osteonecrosis, and the width, length, height, Böhler’s angle, and Gissane’s angle of the calcaneus were measured; AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was used to evaluated the foot function. Results The operation time ranged from 47 to 71 minutes (mean, 60.5 minutes). The length of hospital stay ranged from 2 to 5 days (mean, 3.4 days). All incisions healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 12-24 months (mean, 17.3 months). One patient demonstrated hypoesthesia on the lateral side of foot after operation and recovered after symptomatic treatment. All fractures healed confirmed by X-ray films and the healing time ranged from 10 to 16 weeks (mean, 11.8 weeks). No talus osteonecrosis occurred during follow-up. There were significant differences in the width, length, height, Böhler’s angle, and Gissane’s angle of the calcaneus between pre-operation and at last follow-up (P<0.05). At last follow-up, AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was 91.2±5.0, the difference was significant when compared with preoperative score (t=22.169, P<0.001). The results were excellent in 16 cases and good in 9 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. Conclusion TiRobot combined with O-arm navigation system for minimally invasive treatment of hindfoot fractures can obtain the satisfactory short-term effectiveness, with the advantages of less surgical trauma, precise fixation, and fewer complications.

  • Comparison of screw placement guided by O-arm navigation and ultrasound volume navigation in minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion

    Objective To compare the effectiveness of O-arm navigation and ultrasound volume navigation (UVN) in guiding screw placement during minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) surgery. Methods Sixty patients who underwent MIS-TLIF surgery for lumbar disc herniation between June 2022 and June 2023 and met the selection criteria were included in the study. They were randomly assigned to group A (screw placement guided by UVN during MIS-TLIF) or group B (screw placement guided by O-arm navigation during MIS-TLIF), with 30 cases in each group. There was no significant difference in baseline data, including gender, age, body mass index, and surgical segment, between the two groups (P>0.05). Intraoperative data, including average single screw placement time, total radiation dose, and average single screw effective radiation dose, were recorded and calculated. Postoperatively, X-ray film and CT scans were performed at 10 days to evaluate screw placement accuracy and assess facet joint violation. Pearson correlation and Spearman correlation analyses were used to observe the relationship between the studied parameters (average single screw placement time and screw placement accuracy grading) and BMI. Results The average single screw placement time in group B was significantly shorter than that in group A, and the total radiation dose of single segment and multi-segment and the average single screw effective radiation dose in group B were significantly higher than those in group A (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the total radiation dose between single segment and multiple segments in group B (P>0.05), while the total radiation dose of multiple segments was significantly higher than that of single segment in group A (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in the accuracy of screw implantation between the two groups (P>0.05). In both groups, the grade 1 and grade 2 screws broke through the outer wall of the pedicle, and no screw broke through the inner wall of the pedicle. There was no significant difference in the rate of facet joint violation between the two groups (P>0.05). In group A, both the average single screw placement time and screw placement accuracy grading were positively correlated with BMI (r=0.677, P<0.001; r=0.222, P=0.012), while in group B, neither of them was correlated with BMI (r=0.224, P=0.233; r=0.034, P=0.697). Conclusion UVN-guided screw placement in MIS-TLIF surgery demonstrates comparable efficiency, visualization, and accuracy to O-arm navigation, while significantly reducing radiation exposure. However, it may be influenced by factors such as obesity, which poses certain limitations.

  • O-arm navigation versus C-arm navigation for guiding percutaneous long sacroiliac screws placement in treatment of Denis type Ⅱ sacral fractures

    Objective To compare the effectiveness of O-arm navigation and C-arm navigation for guiding percutaneous long sacroiliac screws in treatment of Denis type Ⅱ sacral fractures. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on clinical data of the 46 patients with Denis type Ⅱ sacral fractures between April 2021 and October 2022. Among them, 19 patients underwent O-arm navigation assisted percutaneous long sacroiliac screw fixation (O-arm navigation group), and 27 patients underwent C-arm navigation assisted percutaneous long sacroiliac screw fixation (C-arm navigation group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, causes of injuries, Tile classification of pelvic fractures, combined injury, the interval from injury to operation between the two groups (P>0.05). The intraoperative preparation time, the placement time of each screw, the fluoroscopy time of each screw during placement, screw position accuracy, the quality of fracture reduction, and fracture healing time were recorded and compared, postoperative complications were observed. Pelvic function was evaluated by Majeed score at last follow-up. Results All operations were completed successfully, and all incisions healed by first intention. Compared to the C-arm navigation group, the O-arm navigation group had shorter intraoperative preparation time, placement time of each screw, and fluoroscopy time, with significant differences (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in screw position accuracy and the quality of fracture reduction (P>0.05). There was no nerve or vascular injury during screw placed in the two groups. All patients in both groups were followed up, with the follow-up time of 6-21 months (mean, 12.0 months). Imaging re-examination showed that both groups achieved bony healing, and there was no significant difference in fracture healing time between the two groups (P>0.05). During follow-up, there was no postoperative complications, such as screw loosening and breaking or loss of fracture reduction. At last follow-up, there was no significant difference in pelvic function between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the C-arm navigation, the O-arm navigation assisted percutaneous long sacroiliac screws for the treatment of Denis typeⅡsacral fractures can significantly shorten the intraoperative preparation time, screw placement time, and fluoroscopy time, improve the accuracy of screw placement, and obtain clearer navigation images.
