High impact information on Surgery, Computer-Assisted

SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) increases the surgeon's dexterity and precision during minimally invasive surgery, especially when using microinstruments [1].
OBJECT: The aim of this study was to review seizure outcome, imaging modalities used, and complications following surgery in patients with epilepsy who had undergone multimodality image-guided surgery at our institution [2].
This significant problem is solved by the computer-assisted-surgery (CAS) system, an intraoperative localizer [3].
In six patients undergoing gynaecological surgery computer assisted total intravenous anaesthesia (CATIA) was performed using etomidate and alfentanil [4].
Variability in the coronal plane was significantly reduced in the computer-assisted surgery group compared with the conventional group (p < 0.0001) [5].

Biological context of Surgery, Computer-Assisted

Because of the high level of accuracy needed in neurosurgery, many computer-assisted surgery (CAS) and augmented reality techniques have been developed in this field [6].

Associations of Surgery, Computer-Assisted with chemical compounds

Single-step fronto-orbital resection and reconstruction with individual resection template and corresponding titanium implant: a new method of computer-aided surgery [7].
Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate whether C1/2 transarticular screws and transpedicular screws can be applied safely and with high accuracy in the cervical spine and the cervico-thoracic junction using a computer-assisted surgery system (CAS system) [8].
Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate whether C1/2 transarticular screws as well as transpedicular screws in C3 and C4 can be applied safely and with high accuracy using a computer-assisted surgery (CAS) system [9].

Gene context of Surgery, Computer-Assisted

Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) may allow surgeons to be more precise and minimally invasive, in addition to being an excellent research tool [10].
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the potential benefits and disadvantages of image-guided surgery for C1-C2 screw placement [11].
PURPOSE: With the development of computer-assisted surgery (CAS) systems, the surgeon's ability to operate a CAS planning station will become essential [12].
The value of computer-assisted surgery in TKR has not been demonstrated and its real usefulness still needs to be evaluated [13].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Surgery, Computer-Assisted

We evaluated computer-assisted surgery (CAS) used for 21 triple pelvic osteotomies on 20 patients with symptomatic acetabular dysplasia and compared the intraoperative and immediate postoperative data with those of 32 patients who underwent 40 pelvic osteotomies without CAS [15].
STUDY DESIGN: This is a feasibility study of image-guided surgery for C1-C2 transarticular screw fixation comparing postoperative screw position in a nonrandomized prospective cohort with a historic control group in which fluoroscopic guidance was used alone [11].
The preoperative planning, even of complex cases can be facilitated by using modern imaging techniques such as computer assisted surgery (CAS) [16].
We developed a method (Computer Assisted Surgery or CAS) designed to achieve safer and more precise surgery by providing highly accurate intraoperative information regarding the location of the surgical instrument [17].
