Meralgia Paresthetica: An Anatomical Review and Surgical Case Presentation Utilizing a Robotic Exoscope
This is the first report of primary LFCN decompression using the Synaptive Modus X exoscope. The device provides excellent visualization, ergonomic benefits, and educational advantages, making it a valuable alternative to traditional microscopes and loupes in nerve decompression and other microsurgical procedures. Further studies are needed to assess its cost-effectiveness and broader applications in plastic surgery.
