[PMID: 37819631 DOI: 10.1002/lary.31104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of mixed reality combined with surgical navigation (MRSN) in the resection of parotid micro- and mini-tumors. METHODS Eighteen patients who underwent parotid tumor resection between December 2020 and November 2022 were included. Six patients were enrolled in MRSN group, and the surgeons performed the surgery with the help of MRSN technology. The surgical procedures include virtual planning, data transfer between mixed reality and surgical navigation, tumor localization and resection assisted by surgical navigation under mixed reality environment. Twelve patients were enrolled in control group, and intraoperative tumor localization and resection were performed according to the experience of the surgeon. Total surgery time and intraoperative bleeding were recorded. Perioperative complications were recorded during follow-up. RESULTS The mean surgery time of MRSN group (76.7 ± 14.0 min) and control group (65.4 ± 21.3 min) showed no significant difference (p = 0.220), so did the intraoperative bleeding of MRSN group (16.0 ± 8.0 mL) and control group (16.7 ± 6.6 mL) (p = 0.825). None of the patient in MRSN group underwent any complication, although one patient in control group suffered temporary facial paralysis. The mean deviation between the virtually marked and the intraoperative actual outermost point of tumor was 3.03 ± 0.83 mm. CONCLUSION MRSN technology can realize real-time three-dimensional visualization of the tumor, and it has the potential of enhancing the safety and accuracy of resection of micro- and mini-tumors of parotid gland. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 134:1670-1678, 2024.

[PMID: 38525423 PMCID: PMC10957557 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1280075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Due to the widespread use of imaging techniques, the detection rate of early-stage lung cancer has increased. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) sublobectomy has emerged as a prominent alternative to lobectomy, offering advantages like reduced resection range, better preservation of lung function, and enhanced postoperative quality of life. However, sublobectomy is more intricate than lobectomy, necessitating a higher level of surgical proficiency and anatomical understanding. Methods Three electronic databases were searched to capture relevant studies from January 2016 to March 2023, which related to the application of three-dimensional(3D) technology in VATS sublobectomy. Results Currently, clinical departments such as orthopedics, hepatobiliary surgery, and urology have started using 3D technology. This technology is expected to be widely used in thoracic surgery in future. Now 3D technology assists in preoperative planning, intraoperative navigation and doctor-patient communication. Conclusion 3D technologies, instrumental in locating pulmonary nodules and identifying variations in target lung segmental vessels and bronchi, play pivotal roles in VATS sublobectomy, especially in preoperative planning, intraoperative navigation, and doctor-patient communication. The limitations of 3D technology in clinical application are analyzed, and the future direction of existing 3D technology development is prospected.

Zary N, Eysenbach G, Van Doormaal TPC, Ruurda JP, Van der Kaaij NP, De Heer LM. Mixed Reality in Modern Surgical and Interventional Practice: Narrative Review of the Literature. JMIR Serious Games 2023; 11:e41297. [PMID: 36607711 PMCID: PMC9947976 DOI: 10.2196/41297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2022] [Revised: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mixed reality (MR) and its potential applications have gained increasing interest within the medical community over the recent years. The ability to integrate virtual objects into a real-world environment within a single video-see-through display is a topic that sparks imagination. Given these characteristics, MR could facilitate preoperative and preinterventional planning, provide intraoperative and intrainterventional guidance, and aid in education and training, thereby improving the skills and merits of surgeons and residents alike. OBJECTIVE In this narrative review, we provide a broad overview of the different applications of MR within the entire spectrum of surgical and interventional practice and elucidate on potential future directions. METHODS A targeted literature search within the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases was performed regarding the application of MR within surgical and interventional practice. Studies were included if they met the criteria for technological readiness level 5, and as such, had to be validated in a relevant environment. RESULTS A total of 57 studies were included and divided into studies regarding preoperative and interventional planning, intraoperative and interventional guidance, as well as training and education. CONCLUSIONS The overall experience with MR is positive. The main benefits of MR seem to be related to improved efficiency. Limitations primarily seem to be related to constraints associated with head-mounted display. Future directions should be aimed at improving head-mounted display technology as well as incorporation of MR within surgical microscopes, robots, and design of trials to prove superiority.

J Thorac Dis 2022; 13:6994-7005. [PMID: 35070382 PMCID: PMC8743398 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-21-1240] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
In this golden age of rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), researchers and surgeons realized that AI could contribute to healthcare in all aspects, especially in surgery. The popularity of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) and the improvement of the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) not only bring opportunities for thoracic surgery but also bring challenges on the way forward. Preoperatively localizing lung nodules precisely, intraoperatively identifying anatomical structures accurately, and avoiding complications requires a visual display of individuals’ specific anatomy for surgical simulation and assistance. With the advance of AI-assisted display technologies, including 3D reconstruction/3D printing, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR), computer tomography (CT) imaging in thoracic surgery has been fully utilized for transforming 2D images to 3D model, which facilitates surgical teaching, planning, and simulation. AI-assisted display based on surgical videos is a new surgical application, which is still in its infancy. Notably, it has potential applications in thoracic surgery education, surgical quality evaluation, intraoperative assistance, and postoperative analysis. In this review, we illustrated the current AI-assisted display applications based on CT in thoracic surgery; focused on the emerging AI applications in thoracic surgery based on surgical videos by reviewing its relevant researches in other surgical fields and anticipate its potential development in thoracic surgery.
