Augmented Reality Integration in Skull Base Neurosurgery: A Systematic Review. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2024; 60:335. [PMID: 38399622 PMCID: PMC10889940 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60020335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: To investigate the role of augmented reality (AR) in skull base (SB) neurosurgery. Materials and Methods: Utilizing PRISMA methodology, PubMed and Scopus databases were explored to extract data related to AR integration in SB surgery. Results: The majority of 19 included studies (42.1%) were conducted in the United States, with a focus on the last five years (77.8%). Categorization included phantom skull models (31.2%, n = 6), human cadavers (15.8%, n = 3), or human patients (52.6%, n = 10). Microscopic surgery was the predominant modality in 10 studies (52.6%). Of the 19 studies, surgical modality was specified in 18, with microscopic surgery being predominant (52.6%). Most studies used only CT as the data source (n = 9; 47.4%), and optical tracking was the prevalent tracking modality (n = 9; 47.3%). The Target Registration Error (TRE) spanned from 0.55 to 10.62 mm. Conclusion: Despite variations in Target Registration Error (TRE) values, the studies highlighted successful outcomes and minimal complications. Challenges, such as device practicality and data security, were acknowledged, but the application of low-cost AR devices suggests broader feasibility.

J Clin Med 2023; 12:2706. [PMID: 37048788 PMCID: PMC10095207 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12072706] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Surgical navigation technology combines patient imaging studies with intraoperative real-time data to improve surgical precision and patient outcomes. The navigation workflow can also include preoperative planning, which can reliably simulate the intended resection and reconstruction. The advantage of this approach in skull-base surgery is that it guides access into a complex three-dimensional area and orients tumors intraoperatively with regard to critical structures, such as the orbit, carotid artery and brain. This enhances a surgeon's capabilities to preserve normal anatomy while resecting tumors with adequate margins. The aim of this narrative review is to outline the state of the art and the future directions of surgical navigation in the skull base, focusing on the advantages and pitfalls of this technique. We will also present our group experience in this field, within the frame of the current research trends.

Surgical Navigation, Augmented Reality, and 3D Printing for Hard Palate Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma En-Bloc Resection: Case Report and Literature Review. Front Oncol 2022; 11:741191. [PMID: 35059309 PMCID: PMC8763795 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.741191] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma is a rare and aggressive tumor representing less than 1% of head and neck cancers. This malignancy often arises from the minor salivary glands, being the palate its most common location. Surgical en-bloc resection with clear margins is the primary treatment. However, this location presents a limited line of sight and a high risk of injuries, making the surgical procedure challenging. In this context, technologies such as intraoperative navigation can become an effective tool, reducing morbidity and improving the safety and accuracy of the procedure. Although their use is extended in fields such as neurosurgery, their application in maxillofacial surgery has not been widely evidenced. One reason is the need to rigidly fixate a navigation reference to the patient, which often entails an invasive setup. In this work, we studied three alternative and less invasive setups using optical tracking, 3D printing and augmented reality. We evaluated their precision in a patient-specific phantom, obtaining errors below 1 mm. The optimum setup was finally applied in a clinical case, where the navigation software was used to guide the tumor resection. Points were collected along the surgical margins after resection and compared with the real ones identified in the postoperative CT. Distances of less than 2 mm were obtained in 90% of the samples. Moreover, the navigation provided confidence to the surgeons, who could then undertake a less invasive and more conservative approach. The postoperative CT scans showed adequate resection margins and confirmed that the patient is free of disease after two years of follow-up.

Abstract
PURPOSE Posterior spinal fusion surgery is required to correct severe idiopathic scoliosis. The surgery involves insertion of screws which requires high accuracy to prevent neurologic damage to the spinal cord. Although conventional CT navigation can reduce this risk, 3D-ultrasound-based navigation could achieve this without added ionizing radiation and usage of expensive and bulky equipment. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of a 3D ultrasound navigation system for posterior spine surgery. METHODS A custom 3D ultrasound (3DUS) with model-to-surface registration algorithm was developed and integrated into a 3D navigation environment. A CT scan of an adolescent spine (T3-T11) was segmented and 3D printed for experiments. A probe with reflective markers was placed in vertebral pedicles 684 times in varying levels, positions in the capture space and orientation of vertebra, and the entrypoint and trajectory accuracies were measured. RESULTS Among 684 probe placements in vertebral levels T3 to T11 in the phantom spine, 95.5% were within 1 mm and 5° of accuracy, with an average accuracy of 0.4 ± 0.4 mm and 2.1 ± 0.9°, requiring 8.8 s to process. Accuracies were statistically significantly affected by vertebral orientation and position in the capture volume, though this was still within the targeted accuracies of 1 mm and 5°. CONCLUSION This preliminary ultrasound-based navigation system is accurate and fast enough for guiding placement of pedicle screws into the spine in posterior fusion surgery. The current results are limited to phantom spines, and future study in animal or human cadavers is needed to investigate soft tissue effects on registration accuracy.

Abstract
Image-guided navigation is well established for surgery of the brain and anterior skull base. Although navigation workstations have been used widely by neurosurgeons and rhinologists for decades, utilization in the lateral skull base (LSB) has been less due to stricter requirements for overall accuracy less than 1 mm in this region. Endoscopic approaches to the LSB facilitate minimally invasive surgeries with less morbidity, yet there are risks of injury to critical structures. With improvements in technology over the years, image-guided navigation for endoscopic LSB surgery can reduce operative time, optimize exposure for surgical corridors, and increase safety in difficult cases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Surgical navigation-guided removal of foreign bodies in the craniomaxillofacial region has been proven to be an effective method. However, there have been some unsuccessful patients due to reduced navigation accuracy or complicated and undetectable anatomy. This article summarizes the experience and proposes some solutions to achieve better results. STUDY DESIGN Two solutions were proposed to optimize the surgical navigation procedure: using a 3-dimensionally printed customized mandible retainer to indirectly maintain the consistency of the foreign body's visual images of preoperative planning and intraoperative navigation and importing real-time endoscopic imaging during surgery to provide vision under complex anatomy. Two patients were selected for each method. RESULTS The foreign bodies were successfully and minimally invasively removed in all patients assisted by optimized surgical navigation. During follow-up at 3 to 6 months postoperatively, no complications were found. CONCLUSION Improving navigation accuracy and providing real vision might be effective at compensating for insufficient navigation due to navigation positioning errors or the interference of imperceptible and complicated anatomy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oral and maxillofacial tumors involving the skull base (SB) are rare and complex, making treatment difficult and controversial. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the treatment efficacy of craniofacial surgery (CFS). STUDY DESIGN Patients who underwent CFS for these tumors between May 2000 and November 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinicopathologic and treatment modality data were collected and follow-up was recorded. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests and Cox-regression model were used for survival analysis. RESULTS In total, 126 patients were enrolled (70 males and 56 females; 97 malignant tumors). Squamous cell carcinoma accounted for the majority of tumors. The lip-submandibular-neck approach was most frequently applied. Through-and-through SB bone or partial dura resection was performed in 42 cases. A pathologic positive margin was found in 18 cases. Of the included patients, 80 underwent simultaneous craniofacial reconstruction. The postoperative complications rate was 11.1%. Estimated 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival rates were 78.8%, 68.2%, and 54.4% respectively; and the 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year recurrence-free survival rates were 77.4%, 66.8%, and 63.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis indicated postoperative complications, radiotherapy, recurrence, and metastasis status had a negative impact on survival (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Although tumors involving the SB had various clinicopathologic characteristics, with interdisciplinary cooperation, CFS is an optimal option.

Abstract
Objective Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are crucial for preoperative assessment of the three-dimensional (3D) spatial position relationships of tumor, vital vessels, brain tissue, and craniomaxillofacial bones precisely. The value of CT-MRI-based image fusion was explored for the preoperative assessment, virtual planning, and navigation surgery application during the treatment of communicative tumors involved the infratemporal fossa (ITF) and middle cranial fossa. Methods Eight patients with infratemporal-middle cranial fossa communicative tumors (ICFCTs) were enrolled in this retrospective study. Plain CT, contrast CT, and MRI image data were imported into a workstation for image fusion, which were used for 3D image reconstruction, virtual surgical planning, and intraoperative navigation sequentially. Therapeutic effect was evaluated through the clinical data analysis of ICFCT patients after CT-MRI image fusion-based navigation-guided biopsy or surgery. Results High-quality CT-MRI image fusion and 3D reconstruction were obtained in all eight cases. Image fusion combined with 3D image reconstruction enhanced the preoperative assessment of ICFCT, and improved the surgical performance via virtual planning. Definite pathological diagnosis was obtained in all four navigation-guided core needle biopsies. Complete removal of the tumor was achieved with one exception among the seven navigation-guided operations. Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurred in one patient with recurrent meningioma. Conclusion CT-MRI image fusion combined with computer-assisted navigation management, optimized the accuracy, safety, and surgical results for core needle biopsy and surgery of ICFCTs.

Abstract
The implementation of augmented reality (AR) in image-guided surgery (IGS) can improve surgical interventions by presenting the image data directly on the patient at the correct position and in the actual orientation. This approach can resolve the switching focus problem, which occurs in conventional IGS systems when the surgeon has to look away from the operation field to consult the image data on a 2-dimensional screen. The Microsoft HoloLens, a head-mounted AR display, was combined with an optical navigation system to create an AR-based IGS system. Experiments were performed on a phantom model to determine the accuracy of the complete system and to evaluate the effect of adding AR. The results demonstrated a mean Euclidean distance of 2.3 mm with a maximum error of 3.5 mm for the complete system. Adding AR visualization to a conventional system increased the mean error by 1.6 mm. The introduction of AR in IGS was promising. The presented system provided a solution for the switching focus problem and created a more intuitive guidance system. With a further reduction in the error and more research to optimize the visualization, many surgical applications could benefit from the advantages of AR guidance.
