Enabling Technologies for Pedicle Screw Placement in Pediatric Spine Surgery
(1)ET methods for pedicle screw placement in pediatric spine surgery include stereotactic navigation, machine-vision navigation, robotic assistance, and 3D-printed drill guides.(2)Implementing ETs in pediatric spine surgery can extend operative times and bring new challenges, including high initial costs, a steep learning curve, and technical difficulties.(3)Gaining proficiency in ETs may eventually decrease operative time, improve pedicle screw placement accuracy, facilitate education, and support surgeon well-being.(4)ETs may provide significant value in complex pediatric cases with severe deformities, small pedicles, and/or challenging anatomy.(5)Ideally, best practices can be achieved through collaboration with colleagues.
