Area of Science:

Orthopedic Surgery
Robotics in Medicine
Surgical Navigation

Background:

Pelvic ring injuries often require surgical fixation.
Traditional methods for sacroiliac screw placement can be challenging and involve significant radiation exposure.

Observation:

A novel robotic-assisted technique was employed for sacroiliac screw placement in a patient with unstable pelvic ring injuries.
The procedure involved a 6.5 mm cannulated screw.

Findings:

Intraoperative and postoperative imaging (fluoroscopy, radiography, CT) confirmed safe screw positioning.
No unplanned cortical violation or neurovascular structure impingement was observed.
This represents the first reported case using a widely available robotic system in the Americas or Europe for this specific application.

Implications:

Robotic assistance may enhance the safety and precision of screw placement in pelvic and acetabular surgery.
This technique has the potential to reduce radiation exposure for patients and surgical teams.
Further research could explore the broader application of robotic arms in complex orthopedic procedures.
