BACKGROUND: Fine operation has been an eternal topic in neurosurgery. There were many problems in functional neurosurgery field with high precision requirements. Our study aims to explore the operability, accuracy and postoperative effect of robot-as...
We report a case of multiple brain abscesses' puncture, employing the ROSA™ Brain surgical robot (Zimmer Biomet) and the O-arm® O2 Imaging System (Medtronic). A 51-year-old man was diagnosed with multiple supratentorial ring enhancing cystic lesions ...

PURPOSE: We describe a detailed evaluation of predictors associated with individual lead placement efficiency and accuracy for 261 stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) electrodes placed for epilepsy monitoring in twenty-three children at our instituti...
BACKGROUND: A frameless stereotactic robot-assisted system allows stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) electrodes to span multiple lobes. As the angularity and length are increased, maintaining accuracy of the electrodes becomes more challenging. The ...

BACKGROUND: We present a novel robotic neuronavigation system (RONNA G4), used for precise preoperative planning and frameless neuronavigation, developed by a research group from the University of Zagreb and neurosurgeons from the University Hospital...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy, safety, and duration of Remebot robot-assisted frameless brain biopsy with those of standard frame-based stereotactic biopsy.
OBJECTIVE: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) has experienced a recent growth in adoption for epileptogenic zone (EZ) localization. Advances in robotics have the potential to improve the efficiency and safety of this intracranial seizure monitoring ...
