About
Xiaoyu Tang is a leading researcher in the field of spinal surgery, with a primary focus on the comparative efficacy and safety of robotic-assisted versus freehand surgical techniques. Their most-cited work, "Robot-assisted technique versus freehand technique for spine surgery: an umbrella review" (2025, 5 citations), represents a landmark contribution by synthesizing and critically evaluating the highest level of evidence—systematic reviews and meta-analyses—on this topic. This umbrella review provides a comprehensive, top-tier assessment of the clinical outcomes, complication rates, and precision of pedicle screw placement, offering crucial guidance for surgeons adopting robotic technology. By clarifying the strengths and limitations of existing evidence, Tang’s work directly informs clinical decision-making and helps shape best practices in spinal stabilization. Their research is particularly impactful for orthopaedic and neurosurgeons navigating the rapid integration of robotics into the operating room. As the field moves toward greater automation and precision, Xiaoyu Tang’s rigorous evidence synthesis stands as a foundational resource for future innovation and safer patient care in spine surgery.
