Abstract

Described herein are robotically coordinated systems and methods for safe and efficient spinal decompression and bone milling. In various embodiments, a robotic spinal surgery system is provided with at least three robotic arms co-located on a single mobile base wherein the movement of the robotic arms is coordinated by a central control unit on the base. The system further comprises tools for spinal decompression, elements for protection of nervous tissue and navigation cameras. The nerve protection elements are placed between bony anatomy structures and nervous structures to prevent contact of the spinal decompression tools with the nervous structures. The nerve protection elements further include safety components that can optionally close electrical circuits with the decompression tools and sense or stimulate the nervous structures. Methods of deploying the inventive system in surgery are also provided.
