The use of intraoperative CT-neuronavigation in Wiltse approach. A technical note
Our cases demonstrate the feasibility of application of intraoperative O-arm CT-neuronavigation to the Wiltse approach. In our opinion, this technique helps in minimizing the surgical approach and rapidly identifying the lesion of interest. Further studies are needed to address the effective utility and advantages of intraoperative CT-neuronavigation in this specific surgical scenario.
