ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The use of frameless stereotactic robotic technology has rapidly expanded since the Food and Drug Administration's approval of the Robotic Surgical Assistant (ROSA) in 2012. Although the use of the ROSA robot has greatly augmented stereotactic placement of intracerebral stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) for the purposes of epileptogenic focus identification, the preoperative planning stages remain limited to computer software.OBJECTIVE:
To describe the use of a 3-dimensionally (3D)-printed patient model in the preoperative planning of ROSA-assisted depth electrode placement for epilepsy monitoring in a pediatric patient.METHODS:
An anatomically accurate 3D model was created and registered in a preoperative rehearsal session using the ROSA platform. After standard software-based electrode trajectory planning, sEEG electrodes were sequentially placed in the 3D model.RESULTS:
Utilization of the 3D-printed model enabled workflow optimization and increased staff familiarity with the logistics of the robotic technology as it relates to depth electrode placement. The rehearsal maneuvers enabled optimization of patient head positioning as well as identification of physical conflicts between 2 electrodes. This permitted revision of trajectory planning in anticipation of the actual case, thereby improving patient safety and decreasing operative time.CONCLUSION:
Use of a 3D-printed patient model enhanced presurgical positioning and trajectory planning in the placement of stereotactic sEEG electrodes for epilepsy monitoring in a pediatric patient. The ROSA rehearsal decreased operative time and increased efficiency of electrode placement.Palabras clave
