About

Dr. Wen Xue is a leading orthopedic surgeon and researcher specializing in robotic-assisted spinal surgery, with a particular focus on thoracolumbar fracture management and pedicle screw placement. Dr. Xue’s major contributions center on the clinical application of the Orthopedic Tianji Robot, demonstrating its effectiveness in minimally invasive percutaneous pedicle screw internal fixation for thoracolumbar fractures. In a pivotal 2021 study (4 citations), Dr. Xue showed that this robotic system significantly reduces operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy sessions compared to traditional techniques. Further advancing the field, a 2022 investigation (3 citations) rigorously assessed the accuracy and safety of robot-assisted pedicle screw placement in 36 patients with various spinal diseases, confirming superior precision and reduced complication rates over C-arm fluoroscopy-guided methods. These studies have established Dr. Xue as a key figure in the integration of robotics into spinal surgery, offering patients safer, more efficient procedures. Dr. Xue’s work is essential reading for surgeons and researchers interested in the practical implementation of surgical robots to improve patient outcomes in orthopedics.
