Abstract
This report outlines the innovative use of augmented reality (AR) in the surgical planning and treatment of a spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) via a minimally invasive technique. AR technology by way of an Apple Vision Pro headset was employed to enhance preoperative visualization and understanding of the pathology, leading to successful surgical ligation of the AVF. This case describes a 56-year-old male presenting with progressive weakness and thoracic myelopathy who showed marked improvement postoperatively, highlighting AR's potential to improve surgical approach and outcomes.
