  • Comparative study of computer-assisted and robot-assisted atlantoaxial pedicle screw implantation for reversible atlantoaxial dislocation

    Objective To investigate the effectiveness of computer-assisted and robot-assisted atlantoaxial pedicle screw implantation for the treatment of reversible atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD). MethodsThe clinical data of 42 patients with reversible AAD admitted between January 2020 and June 2023 and met the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed, of whom 23 patients were treated with computer-assisted surgery (computer group) and 19 patients were treated with Mazor X spinal robot-assisted surgery (robot group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, T value of bone mineral density, body mass index, etiology, and preoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, Neck Dysfunction Index (NDI) between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time, screw implantation time, intraoperative blood loss, hand and wrist radiation exposure, and complications were recorded and compared between the two groups. Gertzbein classification was used to evaluate the accuracy of screw implantation. JOA score and NDI were used to evaluate the function before operation, at 3 days after operation, and at last follow-up. At last follow-up, the status of screws and bone fusion were observed by neck three-dimensional CT. Results The operation time and hand and wrist radiation exposure of the computer group were significantly longer than those of the robot group (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the screw implantation time and intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (P>0.05). All patients were followed up 11-24 months, with an average of 19.6 months. There was no significant difference in the follow-up time between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the accuracy of screw implantation between the two groups (P>0.05). Except for 1 case of incision infection in the computer group, which improved after antibiotic treatment, there was no complication such as nerve and vertebral artery injury, screw loosening, or breakage in the two groups. The JOA score and NDI significantly improved in both groups at 3 days after operation and at last follow-up (P<0.05) compared to those before operation, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). At last follow-up, 21 patients (91.3%) in the computer group and 18 patients (94.7%) in the robot group achieved satisfactory atlantoaxial fusion, and there was no significant difference in the fusion rate between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionComputer-assisted or robot-assisted atlantoaxial pedicle screw implantation is safe and effective, and robotic navigation shortens operation time and reduces radiation exposure.
