Response to the letter to the editor: Beyond fixation: computational and motion-integrated perspectives on pinless robot-assisted spine surgery
We thank the authors for their thoughtful commentary on our work [1] and their vision for future technological advancement in robotic spine surgery.Whilst we appreciate their theoretical framework for motionintegrated systems, we would like to share our practical experience that offers a complementary perspective on the role of fixation in robotic spine surgery.
