Minimally-Invasive Surgery. Maximum Results.
Independent clinical research has shown that minimally-invasive surgery with Mazor Robotics technology provides the benefits listed below:
Complex Spine Surgery. Simplified.
Surgical treatments such as spine deformity correction, revision and reconstructive spine surgery require planning and precision. Each has their unique challenges, and often the patient’s vertebrae are deformed, twisted and abnormally small, which makes for a challenging surgery. Renaissance® provides increased safety and precision in complex spine surgery. It allows Dr. Francis to plan ahead before entering the operating room; Mazor Robotics advanced 3D planning software is used before surgery to create the ideal procedure for each patient’s condition. During the operation, Dr. Francis does the actual work; Renaissance® guides his tools according to the predetermined blueprint to place the implants safely and with the highest level of accuracy in the exact planned locations.
A clinical study presented at a Pediatric Society of North America (POSNA) conference reported 99.6 percent clinical acceptance of screws placed in 120 adolescent scoliotic surgery cases performed with Mazor Robotics Renaissance® Guidance System.1
