Abstract
OBJECTIVE: O-arm(®) now gives us the opportunity not only to perform 2D but also 3D scans during deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedures. We present our experience with the intraoperative use of this device. Our objective was to measure the geometrical accuracy of electrode placement during surgical procedures driven under O-arm(®) control. METHODS: Fifteen patients underwent STN-DBS. For the first 4 patients, 3D scans were performed at the end of the procedure. We calculated the accuracy of electrode positioning, i.e. the distance between final electrode positioning and the planned trajectory. For the next 11 patients, who underwent both intraoperative and final 3D scan, we also calculated the accuracy of the microelectrode positioning. RESULTS: Average stimulation-induced improvement of UPDRS-III score was 52.5±15%. For the first 4 patients, the mean electrode positioning accuracy was 1.46±0.56mm. For the 11 patients who underwent intraoperative 3D scan, the mean microelectrodes positioning accuracy was 1.59±1.1mm. Aberrant positioning was detected in two cases, and was analyzed by fusing 3D scan with preoperative MR images. The definite electrodes positioning accuracy was 1.05±0.54mm. CONCLUSION: Intraoperative 3D scan is feasible, and can help us detect and correct early aberrant trajectories.
