The announcement of the Russia's first operation using Surgical Synergy Spin on treatment of difficult scoliosis at the child

On February 6, 2020 in the National medical research center of health of children for the first time in Russia there will take place operation on treatment of difficult scoliosis at the child using Surgical Synergy Spine technology (complex surgery of a backbone).

Transaction which is considered one of the most difficult in surgery will be carried out by Oleg Borisovich Chelpachenko, the assistant manager, the traumatologist-orthopedist, the leading researcher of "NMITs of health of children".

Structure of the Surgical Synergy Spine complex

According to Medtronic for January, 2020, the Surgical Synergy Spine technology includes:

• the system of neuromonitoring which allows the surgeon to control in real time a status of a spinal cord, thereby avoiding irreversible injury of a nerve;
• the navigation station which performs visualization in 2D - and 3D - the modes of operational surgical space for high-quality control of field of activity of the surgeon during performing transactions;
• the mobile robotic conical and beam tomograph allows to receive high-precision 2D - and 3D - pictures during transaction and to transfer them in real time on the navigation station.

According to the statement of Medtronic, application of the integrated complex on treatment of a backbone allows to increase the accuracy of carrying out interventions, to reduce transaction time, to reduce the probability of carrying out repeated interventions and also to reduce time of the postoperative recovery period of the patient.
