Abstract
To report the feasibility and safety of C1 kyphoplasty using the Cirq® robotic assistance coupled to the AIRO® intraoperative computed tomography (iCT)-scan and BrainLab® navigation system. A 47-year-old woman with C1 osteolytic lesion responsible of intractable left-sided suboccipital pain was admitted. She underwent a percutaneous kyphoplasty of left lateral mass of C1 using Cirq® robotic assistance. She reported postoperative substantial pain relief. CT scan showed adequate filling of the osteolytic lesion without obvious leakage of cement. Percutaneous kyphoplasty of C1 using Cirq® robotic assistance is a safe and effective alternative in selected patients with C1 lateral mass metastasis.
