Abstract
ABSTRACTThe ROSA® robot (Medtech, Montpellier, France) is a new medical device designed to assist the surgeon during minimally invasive spine procedures. The device comprises a patient-side cart (bearing the robotic arm and a workstation) and an optical navigation camera. The ROSA® Spine robot enables accurate pedicle screw placement. Thanks to its robotic arm and navigation abilities, the robot monitors movements of the spine throughout the entire surgical procedure and thus enables accurate, safe arthrodesis for the treatment of degenerative lumbar disc diseases, exactly as planned by the surgeon. Development perspectives include (i) assistance at all levels of the spine, (ii) improved planning abilities (virtualization of the entire surgical procedure) and (iii) use for almost any percutaneous spinal procedures not limited in screw positioning such as percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy, intracorporeal implant positioning, over te top laminectomy or radiofrequency ablation.
