Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Robotics in Medicine
  • Medical Device Technology

Background:

  • Stereotactic platforms are utilized for deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead implantation.
  • Robot-assisted stereotaxy is a newer approach that shows comparable accuracy and reduced operating room times versus conventional frame-based systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the accuracy of a streamlined robotic DBS workflow with existing literature data from frame-based and frameless systems.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 126 consecutive DBS lead placement procedures using a robotic stereotactic platform.
  • Patient indications included Parkinson disease, essential tremor, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and dystonia.
  • Robot registration utilized stereotactic frame fixation and frame pins as skull fiducials, with intraoperative fluoroscopic computed tomography for verification.

Main Results:

  • The mean radial error for the target point was 1.06 mm (SD: 0.55 mm).
  • Mean operative time for asleep, bilateral implantation was 238 minutes (SD: 52 minutes).
  • Mean skin-to-skin procedure time was 116 minutes (SD: 42 minutes).

Conclusions:

  • A streamlined workflow for DBS lead placement using robot-assisted stereotaxy achieves comparable accuracy.
  • This robotic approach eliminates the need for coordinate checking and switching, reducing human error and aiding training.
