Abstract:
Objective:To explore the safety and effectiveness of the Renaissance spine surgery robot in the middle and upper thoracic spine fractures.Methods:62 patients with middle and upper thoracic vertebra fractures from March 2015 to March 2019 were prospectively analyzed. These patients were randomly divided into robot group (Renaissance robot-assisted nailing) and free hand group (unarmed nailing under perspective). There were 32 patients in robot group, including 25 males and 7 females with an average age of 43.1±8.91 years (range, 18-65 years). Body mass index (BMI) was 26.15±3.97 kg/m 2 (range, 16.3-41.7 kg/m 2). The preoperative Cobb angle was 20.9 °±2.83° (range, 10.7 °-33.9°). In the free hand group, there were 30 cases, including 24 males and 6 females; Age 44.2±9.10 years (range, 20-67 years), BMI 25.97±4.02 kg/m 2 (range, 17.1-43.2 kg/m 2); The preoperative Cobb angle was 21.3°±3.01° (range, 11.6°-35.1°). The 2 groups were compared in terms of accuracy of screw placement, one-time success rate of screw placement, completion time of screw placement, time of total operation and penetration rate of anterior vertebral margin. The robot group also compared the consistency of screw placement angle with preoperative planning. Results:All patients completed the operation successfully. The number of fractured vertebrae in the robot group was 37; the screw placement time was 16.11±5.82 min; the total number of screws was 230, of which 227 were successfully placed at one time, with a success rate of 98.70% (227/230); 1 screw was inserted through the anterior edge of the vertebral body, and the penetration rate was 0.43% (1/230). The number of fractured vertebrae in the free hand group was 35; the nail placement time was 21.09±7.31 min; the total number of screws was 216, of which 195 were successfully placed at one time, with a success rate of 90.28% (195/216); 12 screws was inserted through the anterior edge of the vertebral body, and the penetration rate was 5.56% (12/216). There were significant differences in the time, success rate and penetration rate between the two groups. There was no significant difference in the total operation time between the robot group and the unarmed nail group 137.23±12.68 min and 140.23±13.13 min, respectively. There was no significant difference in the angle of screw placement between pre-operative planning image and post-operative CT scan in the robot group.Conclusion:Renaissance spinal surgery robot in the treatment of middle and upper thoracic vertebra fractures has the advantages of high accuracy, low intraoperative risk, high safety and satisfactory effect of pedicle screw placement.
