Area of Science:

Neurosurgery
Medical Robotics
Surgical Navigation

Background:

The ROSA robot is established for stereotactic electroencephalography electrode placement.
Its use as a navigation tool for lesion resection has not been previously explored.

Purpose of the Study:

To demonstrate the utility of a novel adapter for integrating the ROSA robot with the NICO BrainPath for deep lesion resection.

Main Methods:

A stainless steel adapter was designed based on ROSA pointer instrument specifications.
Two mock surgeries were performed on 3D printed models to evaluate the adapter's ease of use and applicability.

Main Results:

The adapter provided adequate tumor accessibility and visualization in mock cases.
The system demonstrated stability, allowing surgeons to rest hands without compromising instrument position.

Conclusions:

The ROSA adapter facilitates accurate navigation and exposure of deep lesions.
This combination leverages the ROSA robot's stability and accuracy with the NICO BrainPath's retraction capabilities.
