Use of Pheno Room, Augmented Reality, and 3-Rod Technique for 3-Dimensional Correction of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Abstract

This is a surgical video that showcases the surgical repair of a young male patient with idiopathic scoliosis in a hybrid operating room with the utilization of a new imaging modality Advanced Radar Target Identification System (ARTIS) PHENO (Siemens Medical Solutions, Pennsylvania, USA) and augmented reality (Video 1). A 17-year-old male patient with idiopathic scoliosis underwent scoliosis repair in a hybrid operating room with segment reality surgical planning. The use of augmented reality helped in visualization of proper screw trajectory, and the use of ARTIS PHENO helped in identification of correct screw placement and rod fixation. Intraoperative use of new imaging modalities as augmented reality imaging and ARTIS PHENO can decrease surgical complication and time.
