About

Maximilian Korsun is a leading researcher in the field of minimally invasive spine surgery, with a primary focus on the comparative effectiveness of robotic and navigation-assisted technologies. His work critically evaluates how these advanced surgical tools impact patient outcomes, screw placement accuracy, and the learning curves of surgeons. In his highly cited 2023 study, "Comparison of Robotics and Navigation for Clinical Outcomes After Minimally Invasive Lumbar Fusion," Korsun and his team demonstrated that while robotics offers advantages such as reduced radiation exposure, both technologies yield comparable clinical results. This work, along with his analysis of surgeon experience and learning curves, has garnered significant attention, with papers accumulating over 25 citations each. His 2024 study, "Level-specific comparison of 3D navigated and robotic arm-guided screw placement," provides a rigorous accuracy assessment of over 1,200 pedicle screws, offering critical data for surgical decision-making. Korsun's research is essential for spine surgeons and trainees seeking evidence-based guidance on integrating new technologies into practice, and his work is shaping the future of minimally invasive lumbar fusion.
