Comparison of robotic AI-assisted and manual pedicle screw fixation for treating thoracolumbar fractures: a retrospective controlled trial

Robotic AI-assisted placement improves pedicle screw placement accuracy, reduces intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency and time, alleviates postoperative pain, and accelerates patient recovery. This approach aligns with the principles of enhanced recovery in orthopedic surgery and holds promise for wider clinical application in the treatment of thoracolumbar fractures.
