Image-guided surgical navigation allows the orthopedic oncologist to perform adequate tumor resection based on fused images (CT, MRI, PET). Although surgical navigation was first performed in spine and pelvis, recent reports have described the use of this technique in bone tumors located in the extremities. In long bones, this technique has moved from localization or percutaneous resection of benign tumors to complex bone tumor resections and guided reconstructions (allograft or endoprostheses). In recent years, the reported series have increased from small numbers (5 to 16 patients) to larger ones (up to 130 patients). The purpose of this paper is to review recent reports regarding surgical navigation in the extremities, describing the results obtained with different kind of reconstructions when navigation is used and how the previously described problems were solved.

Background: The human eye consists of highly sensitive, hydrated, and relatively thin tissues, making precise control and accurate force estimation crucial in robotic eye surgery. This paper introduces a novel control method and state observer designed for a gripper surgical instrument used on the external ocular surface during robotic eye surgery.
Methods: A novel state observer, operating in tandem with the controller, estimates the applied force.

Background: Kidney transplantation is the ultimate treatment for end-stage kidney disease. Function of the kidney graft is not only dependent on medical factors but also on a complication-free surgical procedure. In the event of major surgical complications, the kidney graft is potentially lost and the patient will return to the waiting list which may be long.

The Hugo RAS system is characterized by its multimodular design, which leads to an increased docking effort. Exact data for docking time and the learning curve is missing. We describe for the first time the use of a laser-guided cart positioning to reduce the docking time.

Background: Devices that help educate young doctors and enable safe, minimally invasive surgery are needed. Eureka is a surgical artificial intelligence (AI) system that can intraoperatively highlight loose connective tissues (LCTs) in the dissected layers and nerves in the surgical field displayed on a monitor. In this study, we examined whether AI navigation (AIN) with Eureka can assist trainees in recognizing nerves during colorectal surgery.
