Minimal invasive neurosurgery benefits from combining endoscopy with frameless neuronavigation. This integrated approach enhances surgical planning and real-time orientation for complex brain lesion removal.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Minimally invasive neurosurgery is increasingly standard.
  • Endoscopic techniques are used for various lesions.
  • Intraoperative orientation can be challenging during endoscopic procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility of combining endoscopic procedures with frameless, armless neuronavigation systems.
  • To assess the safety and efficacy of this combined approach in neurosurgical interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Integration of endoscopic procedures with a frameless, armless neuronavigation system.
  • Application of the combined technique in tumor surgery, ventriculostomies, and arachnoid cyst operations.
  • Utilizing frameless stereotactic techniques for surgical planning and real-time endoscope orientation.

Main Results:

  • All procedures utilizing the combined system were performed successfully.
  • The combination proved advantageous for safe surgical planning.
  • Real-time orientation of the endoscope was significantly improved.

Conclusions:

  • The integration of endoscopy with frameless neuronavigation is highly beneficial for neurosurgical procedures.
  • This technique offers enhanced safety and precision, particularly for intraventricular and large brain mass lesions.
  • It represents a valuable advancement in minimally invasive neurosurgical interventions.
