Minimally Invasive: Minimally Reimbursed? An Examination of Six Laparoscopic Surgical Procedures
Surgical Innovation, 2005It is generally believed that minimally invasive surgery (MIS) results in less postoperative pain, fewer complications, and shorter recovery periods compared with open procedures. Yet despite these benefits, the level of reimbursement assigned to the surgeon by United States health-care payers is often lower than that for open procedures.

Evaluation of the ROSA™ Spine robot for minimally invasive surgical procedures
Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2016The ROSA® robot (Medtech, Montpellier, France) is a new medical device designed to assist the surgeon during minimally invasive spine procedures. The device comprises a patient-side cart (bearing the robotic arm and a workstation) and an optical navigation camera. The ROSA® Spine robot enables accurate pedicle screw placement. Thanks to its robotic arm

Minimally invasive approaches and surgical procedures in the lumbar spine
Der Orthopäde, 1997The history of minimally invasive lumbar spine surgery began in 1963 with the introduction of chemonucleolysis. Like this technique, the later development of mechanical nucleotomy and lasernucleotomy aimed primarily at reduction of the disc pressure.

Surgical Technique: Minimally Invasive Procedures
2017The patient is in the supine position with arms and legs abducted. We use the five-port technique. The camera port is inserted at the umbilicus; the other four ports are placed in a V-shaped line: one 5 mm port at the right hypochondriac region and one 10 mm port in the middle of a slightly curved line between the two ports.

Are Minimally Invasive Procedures Harder to Acquire than Conventional Surgical Procedures?
Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 2010<i>Background:</i> It is frequently suggested that minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is harder to acquire than conventional surgery. To test this hypothesis, residents’ learning curves of both surgical skills are compared. <i>Methods:</i> Residents had to be assessed using a general global rating scale of the OSATS (Objective ...

Vibrotactile force feedback system for minimally invasive surgical procedures
2006 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2006Lack of adequate force feedback for the surgeon in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can lead to unnecessary trauma to tissue and adverse events during surgery. The successful use of vibrotactile stimulation to augment overloaded or deficient sensory modes in the human operator in other application areas warrants an investigation into its application in

Minimally invasive techniques in common surgical procedures: Implications for training
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 2003Laparoscopic techniques are increasingly used in common surgical procedures. Many of these procedures are used to teach basic surgical trainees (BST) and therefore introduction of these techniques may have implications for training.To establish whether the introduction of laparoscopic techniques reduced the opportunity of BSTs to perform surgical ...
