This article presents a haptic-guided teleoperation for a tumor removal surgical robotic system, so-called a SIROMAN system. The system was developed in our previous work to make it possible to access tumor tissue, even those that seat deeply inside ...
The role of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in the skull base emerges and represents the natural progression toward miniinvasive resections in confined spaces. The accessibility of the sella via TORS has been recently described on fresh human cadave...
The goal of this cadaver study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of da Vinci robot-assisted keyhole neurosurgery. Several keyhole craniotomies were fashioned including supraorbital subfrontal, retrosigmoid and supracerebellar infratentorial....

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) effectively analyze non-linear data sets. The aimed was A review of the relevant published articles that focused on the application of ANNs as a tool for assisting clinical decision-making in neurosurgery. A literatu...
In neuroendovascular surgery, operators must manipulate devices, such as microcatheters and guidewires, with millimeter precision while simultaneously monitoring multiple areas across up to four radiography monitors. Although both operators and assis...
OBJECTIVE: The ongoing war in Ukraine has introduced many challenges to an already overburdened and resource-limited medical system. Longitudinal collaborations, material support, educational outreach, and surgical mentorship are essential for improv...
BACKGROUND: The relentless integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into neurosurgery necessitates a meticulous exploration of the associated ethical concerns. This systematic review focuses on synthesizing empirical studies, reviews, and opinion ...
