Ein Konzept für eine automatisierte Endoskopführung für die Nasennebenhöhlenchirurgie

Abstract: Guidance of the endoscope for FESS by an automated motor-driven system is possible. The conception which is based on workflow analysis favors a system with automatic definition of the workspace and a manual movement of the endoscope. The examined system offers a potential for clinical application. Definition of the automation level and development of a man-machine interface is more important than selection or reconstruction of a special manipulator for endoscope guidance in FESS from a surgical point of view.

“…To estimate the sinus volume precisely, a time-consuming manual measurement on coronal slices was performed, similar to the one suggested by Pirner et al [24] According to our experience and literature, an automatic measurement often gives an inexact result (for example it does not include the mucosa or exceeds the bony walls of the sinus) [2426]. Only few other authors used similar measurement techniques [24,27], while others used automatic measurements [5,18,28]. Emirzeouglu used a different method – square grid test systems with six different point densities combined with the Cavalieri principle [23,29].…”

“…Frequent changes of instruments and image agitation, and frequent tissue contacts entail in frequent cleaning intervals, which are drawbacks of the conventional technique [4]. Human assistance is tiring and adjusting the endoscope often causes difficulties [5].…”

“…The robot-assisted access to the skull base would enormously extend the surgical possibilities of the partly vulnerable anatomical structures of this region. Because of technical limitations, the application of robotic systems in this field is only limited to cadaver models and individual clinical case descriptions 171 177 . Due to its size, the DaVinci system seems to have a suboptimal structure for an approach to the skull base 155 .…”
