Περίληψη:
Computer-assisted navigation has a role in some orthopedic procedures.
It allows the surgeons to obtain real-time feedback and offers the
potential to decrease intraoperative errors and optimize the surgical
result. Computer-assisted navigation systems can be active or passive.
Active navigation systems can either perform surgical tasks or prohibit
the surgeon from moving past a predefined zone. Passive navigation
systems provide intraoperative information, which is displayed on a
monitor, but the surgeon is free to make any decisions he or she deems
necessary. This article reviews the available types of computer-assisted
navigation, summarizes the clinical applications and reviews the results
of related series using navigation, and informs surgeons of the
disadvantages and pitfalls of computer-assisted navigation in orthopedic
surgery.
