BACKGROUND
Virtual reality (VR) platforms are an emerging tool in neurosurgical planning, offering immersive, patient-specific 3D visualization to optimize surgical strategy and intraoperative navigation. Here, VR-assisted mapping was used to remove a recurrent cervical meningioma.
METHODS
A 43-year-old female with a recurrent C5-C6 ventral, intradural meningioma presented with newly progressive myelopathy due to recurrent meningioma and worsening multiple limb paresis. Using intraoperative neuronavigation and VR-assisted mapping, the patient underwent a C4-C7 hemilaminotomy for recurrent tumor resection, followed by a C3-T2 fusion.
RESULTS
Postoperatively, the patient had significant neurological improvement, and follow-up studies showed no tumor recurrence.
CONCLUSION
This case highlights the utility of VR in presurgical planning and intraoperative guidance for complex recurrent cervical spinal tumors.
背景
虚拟现实（VR）平台是神经外科手术规划中一种新兴的工具，可提供沉浸式、针对患者的三维可视化，以优化手术策略和术中导航。在此，VR辅助绘图被用于切除复发性颈段脑膜瘤。
方法
一名43岁女性，患有复发性C5-C6腹侧硬膜内脑膜瘤，因复发性脑膜瘤和多肢轻瘫加重出现新的进行性脊髓病。使用术中神经导航和VR辅助绘图，患者接受了C4-C7半椎板切除术以切除复发性肿瘤，随后进行了C3-T2融合术。
结果
术后，患者神经功能有显著改善，随访研究显示无肿瘤复发。
结论
该病例突出了VR在复杂复发性颈段脊柱肿瘤的术前规划和术中指导中的作用。
