Navigation-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery Deformity Correction. Review uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • Surgical correction of deformity is a complex endeavor. Although more traditional, open techniques remain important, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques have been increasingly studied as an alternative approach. In particular, the circumferential MIS approach, which may incorporate a lateral/anterior as well as a subsequent posterior approach, has been investigated as a promising algorithm/protocol. Utilization of navigation guidance during MIS deformity correction is an important intraoperative tool for the surgeon.
