About
Y.A. Pompeu is a leading figure in the field of minimally invasive spine surgery, with a primary focus on the integration of robotic technology to enhance surgical precision and patient outcomes. His most impactful work centers on the clinical validation of floor-mounted robotic systems for pedicle screw placement, a critical component of lumbar fusion procedures. In his landmark study analyzing 1,050 screws, Pompeu demonstrated the exceptional accuracy and safety profile of the ExcelsiusGPS robot, reporting a high rate of optimal screw placement and a low incidence of proximal level violations. This research, which has garnered 23 citations since its 2023 publication, provides robust evidence supporting the adoption of robotic assistance to reduce human error and improve consistency in complex spinal instrumentation. Pompeu’s contributions are particularly notable for their focus on real-world surgical data, bridging the gap between technological innovation and practical application. His work not only advances the standard of care for patients with degenerative spinal conditions but also serves as a foundational reference for surgeons and researchers seeking to optimize robotic workflows in orthopedics and neurosurgery.
