“…With emerging state-of-the-art technologies, at the current era, endoscopic surgery is considered to have a higher resolution and definition view than previous decades [11]. These advances accompanied with the flexible placement through surgical corridor allow surgeons to have more direct angles and clearer display to identify the important structure and the nerve-tumor interfaces.…”

Background To present a surgical technique for the treatment of intradural extramedullary (IDEM) tumors by using endoscopically-controlled surgery with open hemi-laminectomy technique. Methods In this study, 20 patients with 22 IDEM tumors were enrolled. An endoscopically-controlled surgery with open hemi-laminectomy was employed to remove the tumors. Data related to clinical symptoms and medical images before and after surgery were collected for perioperative evaluation and follow-up analysis. Results All the tumors in 20 patients were well removed. The clinical symptoms were significantly reduced in all the patients as well. The short term follow-up data showed that there was no tumor recurrence or spinal deformity. Conclusion The endoscopically-controlled surgery with open hemi-laminectomy technique provided favorable exposure and satisfactory resection to the IDEM tumors. It may be an effective surgical method for treating IDEM tumors. Larger samples and longer follow-up data are needed to verify its long-term effectiveness.

Neurosurgical procedures are performed using operating microscopes. The technology of most microscopes has not changed much over the past 60 years. The National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences and International Institute of Information Technology based at Bengaluru have embarked on joint collaboration for developing robot for neurosurgical applications. As a working prototype, robotic microscope Mythri 1.0 has been developed. An overview of the development process, working, and features of the device is presented in the article.

“…The history of endoscopy originated with cystoscopy for bladder diseases, and over the past 200 years, this procedure progressed with stepwise technical advancements and clinical applications10,40). In 1806, Philip Bozzini devised the basic concept of endoscopy consisting of a long tube and external light source.…”

“…Due to the progressive improvement of endoscopy systems and surgical instruments in the 1970s, neuroendoscopy has become comparable or even superior to microscopy in selected cases since the 1990s10,40). Generally, neuroendoscopy is commonly used for intraventricular, skull base, spinal, and other lesions.…”

Treating diseases in the field of neurosurgery has progressed concomitantly with technical advances. Here, as a surgical armamentarium for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms, the history and present status of the keyhole approach and the use of neuroendoscopy are reviewed, including our clinical data. The major significance of keyhole approach is to expose an essential space toward a target, and to minimize brain exposure and retraction. Among several kinds of keyhole approaches, representative keyhole approaches for anterior circulation aneurysms include superciliary and lateral supraorbital, frontolateral, mini-pterional and mini-interhemispheric approaches. Because only a fixed and limited approach angle toward a target is permitted via the keyhole, however, specialized surgical devices and preoperative planning are very important. Neuroendoscopy has helped to widen the indications of keyhole approaches because it can supply illumination and visualization of structures beyond the straight line of microscopic view. In addition, endoscopic indocyanine green fluorescence angiography is useful to detect and correct any compromise of the perforators and parent arteries, and incomplete clipping. The authors think that keyhole approach and neuroendoscopy are just an intermediate step and robotic neurosurgery would be realized in the near future.
