Scoliosis surgery using the Mazor X Stealth surgical robot: Emma's story
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- This is the story of how a pioneering technology was used to treat scoliosis in Emma, aged 14. The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust (RNOH) in Stanmore, Britain’s leading specialist orthopaedic hospital, is the first centre in the NHS to offer Robotic Assisted Spinal Surgery (RASS) utilising field-leading enabling technology that is transforming the operating theatre.
The Mazor X Stealth EditionTM (MXSE) is the latest generation of robotic guidance platforms that assist surgeons with sophisticated real-time 3D imaging, advanced anatomy recognition and enhanced navigation that will increase patient safety and surgical precision. RNOH will also become the first Reference Centre within Europe to train visiting surgical teams from around the globe in partnership with Medtronic Ltd, the manufacturer of the MXSE.
The MXSE can be used for both open and minimally invasive procedures and is seen as an extension of the surgeon’s skills; supporting the surgeon throughout the procedure. The technology will be used in both paediatric and adult spinal surgical cases across a range of pathologies including spinal deformity, degenerative spinal disease, traumatic fracture fixation and in the management of spinal cancers.
Robotic-Assisted Spinal Surgery will help surgeons to perform complex spinal procedures in a more minimally invasive way and may, as a result, potentially reduce the overall time patients have to stay in hospital. Owing to the increased accuracy of implant placement, it is expected that we will also see a reduction in the rate of revision spinal surgeries. Enabling technologies in healthcare have been gaining significant traction due to improved safety profile and benefits for patients. The RNOH Spinal Surgical Unit Consultants have collectively committed to this strategic direction.
Techniques for Robotic Assisted Spinal Surgery have been in use for some time and there is good evidence and safety data to support this. RNOH is the first centre in Europe to use the Mazor X robotic system in conjunction with ‘Stealth Edition’ navigation technology. The RNOH aims to deliver the best patient and staff experience in the NHS; our early adoption of enabling technologies will deliver an environment where our field-leading surgeons can continue to pioneer surgical techniques and build great teams to deliver excellence in orthopaedic care.
The Spinal Surgical Unit at RNOH includes one of the largest Spinal Deformity Services in Europe. Referrals to this service come from throughout the UK and internationally, and the unit has a world-renowned reputation for its pioneering work. Specialist spinal surgeons treat a wide variety of patients with very complex problems. The RNOH is at the forefront of paediatric and adult spinal deformity surgery (scoliosis and kyphosis). Scoliosis is a curvature of the spine and the RNOH successfully treated HRH Princess Eugenie for this condition when she was 12 years old.
Being very lucky I had a scoliosis and had my surgery, four years ago my spine needed five levels with rods and screws , I was up and walking within 8 days , discharged in ten days , amazing . My thanks to all staff .
no more back pain after surgery?

Hi Felicity. I am considering surgery. I am 53. how was your recovery. If you don't mind me asking, were you in alot of pain before surgery. I am not in alot of pain, but my curvature is progressing slowly. I don't want to be hunched over at 60, so it is more for preventative. My degree is 43. Any insight would be appreciated.
@@annhershey8111 if you would like to give me your email address I will get in touch with you personally Ann 😊
I love it your girl should have a wonderful life now , congratulations.
I have been living with scoliosis now for over 53yrs. seeing these positive outcomes always makes feel wonderful not only for the person getting this life changing surgery but for families as well , the future looks very bright 🌞
good luck.
If 53 years scoliosis, it means its light version and influences to normal life is minimal, if it is I don’t think you need surgery, exercise and yoga would be helpful
I jus had scoliosis surgery 5 days ago and I’m on my way to a full recovery. I was up and walking 1 day after surgery and released 2 days after.
how much was your surgery?
@@liliasmith810 if you live in London lucky they do it for free I had mine done on the 3rd this month

@Shæ Can you enlighten me on this pls?
@@charlesokoronkwo4171 hi yeah I’m 5 weeks post oop from surgery I’m feeling fine now my scar itches a lot some times but that’s about it I still abt bend till I’m 8 weeks
Waiting for my daughter's surgery to be complete within an hour or so. She's 15. I think her curves are opposite of Emma's. Thank you for sharing. These stories are very helpful and encouraging 💞
how did your daughter's surgery go? How much pain did she have after? Is she able to bend over now?
How is she now?
My daughter has scoliosis i just find out last year November...she going to do surgery December this year as a family we not coping very scared..any advise plz
I have scoliosis but it’s not life threatening to get the surgery, just know about 100,000 of children teens and adults included get the surgery, yes it’s going to hurt but just adjust with your child and you guys will be fine, good luck and I hope for the best. 😇
I have a severe case of scoliosis, it was bad, I was in hospital for a month. 3 surgeries I suffered a collapsed lung and my spine cant be put straight it's much better now after the metal robs were put in I was 13 so I know her pain
You’re so strong!
Are you still alive? Can you share me your experience with more detail? Do you have any problem after this surgery???
@@syaffizafrishahrin9452 hello yes in still alive lol it's been nearly 9 years since I've had the surgery. And to be honest it doesn't bother me anymore. I get the occasional back pain but who doesn't. But a year or so after my operations my bone actually grew around the metal rods.
The after care was brutal as I had to learn to almost walk again and gain weight as I lost a lot while in the hospital. There where a lot of tears and dizzy spells but it doesn't last long.
I had to wear a back brace for 3months and after that came off my doctors said I was as good as new and can start doing normal life stuff again.
@@roguevlogs4424 so did they removed the metal rod after you recover? Sorry for asking too much.
@@syaffizafrishahrin9452 its okay. Not they didn't they are still there to this day, the rods were put in to keep my back straight and they will stay there forever
i have scoliosis i found out when i was 10 and i am 11 almost 12 and i have a 80+ degree and still have not had my surgery and let me tell u now i have the days where i feel like i am DYING it is so hard to find clothes bc they are to big or to small there is no in between but i have friends and family the support me in every way
I have kyphoscoliosis 🥺🥺 I wish my family could afford such expensive treatment for me 😞..
You will get your surgery soon Naina
In my country you’d only have to pay for using the hospital bed after ( 25 euro a night)
@@InTenZeGamingHD wow you're lucky. In here you have to pay at least like 60.000 for scoliosis surgery
All I’m scared of is that spinal fusion reduces the flexibility and the motion of the back. I really want someone to discuss about it and hope I won’t hesitate to straighten my back any longer.
@B. L. what happens if you get scoliosis at the lumbar spine
Anyone else have quit their job because of scoliosis? I work at an office and i cant do it anymore i am not balanced to walk and sit for hours
it really helps a lot of people that have the same spine problems. God bless you.
Looks interesting.i have metal rods in from scoliosis and have pain daily to the point of depression.hopefully new techniques improve lives of others
Are they removable at a certain time ?
@@zed908 they can be removed but the intention is for them to stay for life which is why they usually don’t operate on kids who are born with it as they’ll need replaced as they grow.however not long after I first had them maybe a year,I got an infection and needed them removed then replaced a few weeks later.tried blocking it all out so don’t remember the exact year but I’d say I’ve now had them over 15 years so fingers crossed they never need removed again
@@ryanredmond87 can you bend you spine with them ? or you have to use your legs ?
@@zed908 have to use legs.my back is very stiff ,probably what causes the pain,I can’t really bend at all except at the legs.also since having the first rods removed and news ones replaced,due to deterioration in my scoliosis I went from around 5ft to 4ft 8 so it’s really weird spending a few years as almost half a ft taller.
Would you say it's worth getting it? What type of scoliosis did you have?
So one year on how is Emma has she recovered well.
Would you recommend the operation?
I have scoliosis and i am 24 years old i live in pain everyday but i dont have money for the surgery....
Did it make for you heart or lung probs

You probably live in the US.... is there no such thing as NHS in the US? I've heard you have to pay for everything with your own money. I'm so sorry :( Hope you will be able to get the surgery soon. I'm also waiting for mine....But mine will be funded by the government. God bless you and best wishes ❤
I have sacroiliac joint problem and people always trouble me but I don't care about that I am a blessed child and I thank fada god 🙏 for that I will always give him my heart and soul I appreciate how he makes me because I am living my however I want it to be beside him he's so great full🥰😘💋💯💕💖

Girl i feel your pain, i have almost the same pain as period cramp everyday after having the surgery😭😭
I have a 45.9 degree and its shaped like a c and I don't know if I will have to have surgery or not
i had scoliosis surgery dec 2019 they did the teathering only here in canada, st the time i was the youngest child that’s they’ve done this on. it didn’t work
I find it intriguing how many people have chose to have surgery, I have quite severe scoliosis I had back pain for years and could do intense excercise other wise it would hurt. Now I do yoga daily and slowly my spine has straightened to almost perfection, I don't get much pain unless I don't do my yoga or if I sit down all day... I never wanted to operation my mum works at the hospital and has met people who have been left Permanently unable to walk by it. Bless all you brave souls who went through with it
Hi, can you pls tell me more about your journey? That would help me a lot.
How the hell
what kind of yoga
I had my surgery done in 2001. Which I was a child. My mom made the decision to have it done. If I could have chosen not to get it I would haven't gotten it with the knowledge ik now. I'm still in pain. Everything took much longer to heal. The doctor's told me I might not walk again when I was younger. But I kept working and praying to God. And today I walk. However im in so much pain. My cartlige is missing in areas of my spine. I have nerve pain now which is very pain. I need to find me some help. I'm in south Carolina and haven't found help yet.
@@nicolepugh4765 I wish you will recover and walk with no pain 🙏
I’m so happy for her! I had to wear a brace for two years (basically 24/7) and it was no fun. It’s great this new tech exists!
I have hyperlordosis but my surgery was gone wrong and again i am planning for second surgery this is because our doctors don't know how to perform hyperlordosis surgery
If there is any treatment for hyperlordosis please let me know
i have same this type Problem but i never afford sugary expenses please any one help me i never want money i want only sugary because my life is so difficult..

Holaaaa mi nombre es joel soy de perú, tengo una hija de 13 años tiene escoliosis grado 40, en mi país es muy costoso la operación.. Disculpen.. En el hospital donde su hija se opero habra una acción humanitaria para poder llevar a mi hija para que sea atendida.., ella se deprime esta en la etapa de adolescencia y se siente muy mal se acompleja por su apariencia.. Hoy en día... Ella esta en terapia realmente, no se que hacer no tengo los medios para que sea operada, por amor de Dios ayúdenme... No se en quien recurrir
Hola Joel, yo tambien soy peruana pero vivo en usa desde niña, my hija tiene escoliosis y tambien la quieren operar. Hay otro procedimiento nuevo que se llama vertebral body tethering, no se mucho sobre este procedimiento recien fue aprovado por el FDA pero es una opcion diferente a la fusion.

This is Amazing! It's so incredible what can be done these days x
my son has scoliosis surgery today
I've had 19 spinal surgeries. Rods and screws from neck to butt
Those hard braces are frightful things. I can't imagine how the kid manages to breathe, or sleep in such a thing. And that for years at a time.
I wouldn't blame her in the least for choosing surgery.
i’m scared rn my back is killing me and i think i might need surgery but i’m scared i’ll die i don’t wanna die i want the brace man
What happens if she decides to get pregnant in the future? The female spine curves and changes shape during pregnancy, the muscles that help hold the spine in place become more relaxed too.
I have scoliosis too and I’m wearing my brace and I have two curves and i would be tarified to have the surgery ehhh
It's not too bad, I was on pain meds and didn't feel much for most of the recovery.

She's very pretty!
This girl has it lucky my sping is shifted to the side and spirals up like DNA structure or a spiral staircase I feel my surgery will suck but this still gives me hope
You will be okay there’s been way worse that has been done perfectly good what they do is twist the spine so the surgery will probably fix the curl that makes ur spine look like dna structure and the rest will just take time to heal
Can you request the Mazel robot for a scoliosis operation.

scoliosis once it has stopped growing is not going to increase unless in thoracic it is more than 50º although sometimes not even that, it depends on each one, since it is genetic

Are these people crazy? Doing surgery in early age
I’m 14 and I’m on the waiting list for spinal fusion now. It’s best to get it at a young age because as you grow your curve progresses and if your curve gets too large it can reduce mobility, crush your lungs, and damage nerves. So it’s the best thing to do if needed.
Why is it crazy to get it fixed early? It’s so it would progress and get worse, making it more difficult to fix the curve

Must be difficult to reach wen go toilet.
Yes, it is very difficult. I have scoliosis and going to the bathroom is difficult. For me, touching my toes is impossible in my brace. It is also very irritating when I drop a pen and have to get out of my seat to kneel down and get it.
Little ms Chloe tbh when I wear my brace I only take it off to use the bathroom and when I fall on my knees I just give up and crawl till someone helps me lmfao
Little ms Chloe but the thing is my pain and suffering was for nothing turns out the brace wouldn’t have worked in the first place I now need surgery but I’m excited because I can do things that I loved
Use Springs in a tube instead of fusion to maintain mobility.
