Safety and efficacy of robot-assisted technology in severe complex and non-severe spinal deformity correction: a retrospective comparative study
This study demonstrates that RA technology achieves comparable pedicle screw placement accuracy and major curve correction rates in SCD patients relative to NSD patients, with no significant increase in complication rates. However, SCD patients may require longer hospital stays. These findings suggest that RA technology is a safe and effective strategy for SCD management, though broader implementation requires validation through larger prospective trials. Further large-scale, prospective studies are warranted to validate these results.
