Computer navigation enhances minimally invasive spine surgery, improving accuracy and reducing radiation exposure. Further research is needed to determine its impact on patient-reported outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Medical Technology

Background:

  • Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) offers advantages over open procedures.
  • Computer navigation systems are increasingly integrated into surgical workflows.
  • The synergy between navigation and MISS is driving broader adoption and application.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review general applications of navigation in MISS.
  • To assess the value of navigated versus non-navigated techniques in spine surgery literature.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of published studies comparing navigated and non-navigated spine surgery.
  • Analysis of studies focusing on percutaneous pedicle screw placement, vertebral augmentation, and fusion procedures.

Main Results:

  • Navigation improves accuracy in percutaneous pedicle screw placement, vertebral augmentation, and MISS fusion.
  • Studies show enhanced accuracy and reduced radiation exposure with navigation in spine surgery.
  • Navigation and MISS technologies demonstrate a synergistic relationship, expanding their respective applications.

Conclusions:

  • Computer navigation is increasingly utilized and beneficial in MISS.
  • Navigation enhances instrumentation accuracy and decreases radiation exposure in spine surgery.
  • Further investigation into patient-reported outcomes is necessary to fully define navigation's future impact on MISS.
