description | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Existing orthopaedic robotic systems are almost restricted to provide guidance for trajectory direction. In the present study, a novel spinal robotic system with automatic drilling power was introduced. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety in pedicle screw insertion of posterior lumbar interbody fusion assisted by this novel robotic system. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A randomised controlled trial was conducted for 17 participants who were required posterior lumbar interbody fusion process. Seven (3 M/4 F) were randomly assigned to the robot-assisted group (RA group), and the other ten (4 M/6 F) were assigned to the conventional technique group (FH group). A novel robotic system was used in the RA group. All measurements were based on postoperative computed tomography (CT) data. Accuracy of screw insertion was determined using the Gertzbein and Robbins Scale. Precision was measured by the entry point deviation distance and the trajectory rotation. Other variables included operation time, radiation time, length of stay, and screw-related complications. RESULT: A total of 82 pedicle screws were placed in the 17 participants. In the RA group, 90.6% of screws placed were Grade A, and 9.4% were Grade B. In the FH group, 78.0% of screws were Grade A, 20.0% were Grade B, and 2.0% were Grade C. No statistical difference was found in the operation time, radiation time per case, and length of stay between both groups. The radiation time per screw is significantly lower in the RA group. No screw-related complications or revision occurred in the present study. CONCLUSION: The outcome of screw accuracy of this robotic system was comparable with that of experienced surgeons, and no screw-related complication was found in the RA group during hospitalisation. In addition, radiation time per screw in the robotic group was significantly lower than that in the conventional group, which shows the potential to reduce radiation exposure of pedicle screw fixation assisted by this robotic system. TRANSLATIONAL POTENTIAL: Our study shows that pedicle screw fixation assisted by “Orthbot” system is accurate and safe. It is concluded that this novel robotic system offers a new option for internal implantation in spine surgery. |
