Drilling accuracy evaluation of a mouldable surgical targeting system for minimally invasive access to anatomic targets in the temporal bone

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Position of the facial recess and its relationship and proximity to the surgical drill when accessing the inner ear. In the academic literature approaches are presented on reaching the cochlea via a single drill tunnel through the mastoid referred to as "percutaneous cochlear implantation", "minimally invasive cochlear implant surgery" (minCIS), or"direct cochlear access" (DCA). After its initial description and previous validation in artificial bone, its accuracy is now analysed for cadaveric specimen under exploration of additional potential error source or change in error impact. The process involved preoperative imaging with an affixed reference . . .
