About

Dr. Charla R. Fischer is a leading orthopedic spine surgeon whose research centers on advancing the safety and precision of spinal instrumentation through robotic navigation and emerging technologies. Her seminal work, “Accuracy of S2 Alar-Iliac Screw Placement Under Robotic Guidance” (78 citations), established a benchmark for robotic-assisted pelvic fixation, demonstrating superior accuracy over freehand techniques. She further quantified the scope of surgical risk in “Instrumentation complication rates following spine surgery: a report from the Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) morbidity and mortality database” (35 citations), leveraging a large multicenter registry to identify key demographic and procedural risk factors for instrumentation-related complications. Dr. Fischer also provided early, high-volume validation of a novel combined robotic-navigation system in her study of 643 thoracolumbar and pelvic screws (32 citations), reinforcing the clinical utility of integrated platforms. Most recently, her narrative review on navigation and emerging technologies in endoscopic spine surgery (13 citations) charts the future of minimally invasive care, highlighting rapid functional recovery. Through these contributions, Dr. Fischer has shaped modern spine surgery by merging data-driven safety analysis with cutting-edge robotic and endoscopic innovation.
