Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Technology

Background:

  • Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has revolutionized general and gynecological surgery.
  • MIS is currently transforming neurosurgical practices.
  • The primary goal of MIS is to minimize tissue disruption and reduce patient morbidity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the development of minimally invasive neurosurgery.
  • To explore the applications and benefits of MIS in neurosurgery.
  • To discuss the broader implications of MIS for surgery in general.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature synthesis was conducted.
  • The review analyzed the evolution and current state of MIS in neurosurgery.

Main Results:

  • Advanced technologies like interactive computer imaging, stereotaxy, ultrasonography, and endoscopy enable precise MIS approaches.
  • Robotics, virtual reality, and telepresence are revolutionizing neurosurgical procedures.
  • Interventional neuroradiology and stereotactic radiosurgery offer alternatives to open surgery, enhancing safety and precision.

Conclusions:

  • Minimally invasive neurosurgery is a significant and advancing field in contemporary neurosurgery.
  • Current neurosurgical innovations in MIS are expected to have a substantial impact on the practice of surgery across various disciplines.
