Keyhole Fenestration for Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks in the Thoracic Spine: Quantification of Bone Removal and Microsurgical Anatomy.

Operative neurosurgery (Hagerstown, Md.)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A safe working trajectory is mandatory for spinal pathologies, especially in the midline, anterior to the spinal cord. For thoracic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, we developed a minimally invasive keyhole fenestration. Thi...

Robotic Microsurgery in Extremity Reconstruction - Experience With a Novel Robotic System.

Surgical innovation
Robotic systems have successfully been introduced into other surgical fields in the past. First attempts with different setups are made in the field of microsurgery. The Symani® Surgical System, a flexible platform consisting of two robotic arms, fe...

A Deep Learning Approach to Classify Surgical Skill in Microsurgery Using Force Data from a Novel Sensorised Surgical Glove.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Microsurgery serves as the foundation for numerous operative procedures. Given its highly technical nature, the assessment of surgical skill becomes an essential component of clinical practice and microsurgery education. The interaction forces betwee...

Microsurgery Robots: Applications, Design, and Development.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Microsurgical techniques have been widely utilized in various surgical specialties, such as ophthalmology, neurosurgery, and otolaryngology, which require intricate and precise surgical tool manipulation on a small scale. In microsurgery, operations ...

Robotic probes at the cell scale.

Science robotics
The miniaturization of robotic tools and probes enables the fundamental study of mechanical properties of cells and tissues.

[Robotics in plastic surgery].

Chirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany)
In recent years surgical robotic systems which were specifically developed for microsurgery have expanded the application of robotic-assisted surgery to plastic reconstructive surgery. Currently, there are two microsurgical robotic systems available ...

Assessment of Thermal Damage from Robot-Drilled Craniotomy for Cranial Window Surgery in Mice.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Cranial window surgery allows for the imaging of brain tissue in live mice with the use of multiphoton or other intravital imaging techniques. However, when performing any craniotomy by hand, there is often thermal damage to brain tissue, which is in...

In situ integrated microrobots driven by artificial muscles built from biomolecular motors.

Science robotics
Microrobots have been developed for applications in the submillimeter domain such as the manipulation of micro-objects and microsurgery. Rapid progress has been achieved in developing miniaturized components for microrobotic systems, resulting in a v...
