Application of a head-mounted augmented reality display for visualization in convexity meningioma resection: A technical note.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Head-mounted augmented reality (AR) displays are a promising innovation in neurosurgical visualization, offering the potential to improve ergonomics and team coordination compared to traditional operating microscopes. Surgeons frequently experience physical strain due to fixed postures during long procedures, contributing to work-related musculoskeletal disorders. This technical note reports on the first clinical use of an AR headset during convexity meningioma resection.

Methods

An 82-year-old female patient underwent surgical resection of a left convexity meningioma using an AR visualization system (Leica MyVeo). The headset displayed the microscope feed directly into the surgeon's and assistant's field of view, allowing both to maintain ergonomic postures throu
