Area of Science:

  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Robotics
  • Neurosurgery

Background:

  • Robotic systems, like the da Vinci Surgical System®, have seen rapid adoption in urological and gynecological procedures.
  • Robotics adoption in spine surgery is slower but shows user enthusiasm due to the field's demands for precision and repetitive tasks.
  • The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved 7 robotic systems from 4 companies for spinal surgery applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss current applications of robotics in spine surgery.
  • To review FDA-approved robotic systems for spinal surgery.
  • To summarize randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and discuss the future of robotic-assisted spine surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on robotic systems in spine surgery.
  • Analysis of FDA-approved robotic systems for spinal procedures.
  • Summary of existing randomized controlled trials evaluating robotic-assisted spine surgery.

Main Results:

  • Clinical data generally indicate that robotic systems are accurate and safe for spinal surgery.
  • Robotic assistance is well-suited to address challenges in spine surgery, such as fine manipulation and repetitive tasks.
  • Despite positive initial findings, rigorous comparative studies are identified as a crucial next step.

Conclusions:

  • Robotic systems demonstrate accuracy and safety in current spinal surgery applications.
  • Broader adoption hinges on the design and implementation of robust comparative studies to confirm utility.
  • Future prospects for robotic-assisted spine surgery are promising, pending further evidence generation.
