Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Surgical Planning

Background:

  • Skull base surgery (SBS) demands meticulous navigation within complex 3D anatomy near critical structures.
  • Effective surgical planning is crucial for optimizing outcomes in SBS.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility of virtual planning (VP) using preoperative MRI for SBS.
  • To compare the impact of VP with 3D contours on surgeon workload between experts and trainees.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 12 patients undergoing SBS.
  • Surgeons (experts and trainees) evaluated cases using VP with 3D MRI-derived contours.
  • Surgeon workload was assessed using the validated National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) questionnaire.

Main Results:

  • Virtual planning (VP) demonstrated a significant reduction in surgeon workload compared to standard planning (P<.0001).
  • Surgeon experience level significantly influenced the observed differences in workload (P<.05).

Conclusions:

  • Preoperative anatomical segmentation and virtual surgical planning (VP) using 3D contours in endoscopic SBS substantially decrease workload.
  • VP is a valuable tool for enhancing surgical planning and reducing cognitive load in skull base surgery for all levels of surgical expertise.
