Introduction Precision in pedicle screw placement is of
utmost importance in any spinal fixation procedure
However, misplacement rates have been reported to range from 5% to 41% in the lumbar spine and from 3% to 55% in the thoracic spine when using conventional techniques

O Arm ...... 2D imaging systems use AP and lateral
images incorporated with pre op CT- less accurate
3D navigation- of cone-beam CT enabled multiple fluoroscopic image acquisition by a device that rotated isocentrically around the patient- more accurate
Reconstructed images from is transferred to an image-guided system for navigartion.
As the reference arc is tracked with the patient imaging, the computer-generated 3D image of the patient’s operative field is already registered and ready for use with navigation
Advantages of 3D Navigation system-O Arm
ability to image multi planar images , multiple levels in a single sequence
Efficacy in imaging of the cervico dorsal junction and upper thoracic spine than conventional flouroscopy
decreased radiation exposure to the operating room (OR) staff
improved accuracy because the patient’s anatomy is registered in the surgical position
imaging accuracy in patients who had undergone prior spine surgeries at the same levels,
portability of the system
Intra operative 3D imaging-helps in correction of malplacement of screws and avoidance of second suregery
allow the application of minimally invasive approaches without elevating the risk of implant misplacements, and can thus help to decrease skeletomuscular surgical trauma and ultimately the length of the hospital stay of patients

upper thoracic spine
Classification of screw malpositions in lumbar spine- Learch and Wiesner 1.Encroachment If the pedicle cortex could not be
visualised. 2. Minor penetration When the screw trajectory
was <3 mm outside the pedicular boundaries3.Moderate penetration When the screw trajectory
was 3–6 mm outside the pedicular boundaries. 4. Severe penetration When the screw trajectory
was >6 mm outside the pedicular boundaries.Learch TJ, Massie JB, Pathria MN, Ahlgren BA, Garfin SR

Computer tomography assessment of pedicle screw placement in lumbar and sacral spine: comparison between free-hand and O-arm based navigation techniques J. Silbermann • F. Riese • Y. Allam • T. Reichert • H. Koeppert • M. Gutberlet Eur Spine J (2011) 20:875–881 DOI 10.1007/s00586-010-1683-4
Free-hand technique will only be safe and accurate when it is in the hands of an experienced surgeon.
The accuracy of screw placement with O-arm can reach 100%. The learning curve of O-arm is high when compared to the free-hand technique which has a steep learning curve
Intra op 3D imaging after pedicle screw placement using O armThe intraoperative evaluations of the 3D scan
resulted for 12.5–14.3% of the patients to the continuation and correction of the surgical measure and to the avoidance of a secondary revision
Immediate correction of malplaced screws lowers the secondary revision rate of the patients and prevents patients ahead secondary neurovascular problems and instability or dislocation of the fixateur

Conventional fluoroscopy, a total of 2532 of 3719 screws were inserted accurately (68.1% accurate).
Using 2D fluoroscopic navigation, 1031 of 1223 screws were inserted accurately (84.3% accurate).
With 3D fluoroscopic navigation, 4170 of 4368 screws were inserted accurately (95.5% accurate).

Dis advantagesTechnical difficulties: Problems with registrationPreoperative patient factors -obese and morbidly
obese patients create difficulty with positioning, beam penetration, and the ability to maneuver imaging devices around the patients.
This results in poorer quality images that can make the registration process inaccurate, as well making the images difficult to use during surgery.

Dis advantagesSteep learning curve
The components of the learning curve include the ability to direct instruments based on imaging visualized on a screen, the ability to replicate in-line maneuvers while placing instrumentation, as well as adopting and developing proper technique while using image-guided technology

Sterile draping- cumbersome with O arm, at times getting caught between the shields
Wrong level surgery-in minimally invasive surgery without proper anatomical identification
Maintanence of navigation accuracyComplex OR set up
Our experienceTotal number of pedicle screws placed under O
arm guidance were 112 in 20 patients.Cervical-1 patientsDorsal -6 ptsLumbar-13pts The average time for surgery 4.6 hours(3-6.4 hrs) The mean duration of hospital stay was 4 days. None of the patient had breech or screw
displacement because of the precision of intra operative O arm image guidance.
All patients had excellent post operative outcome.
