Press Release
McKINNEY, TX — North Texas Brain & Spine Specialists (NTBSS), a leading neurosurgery practice serving McKinney, Dallas, and the surrounding North Texas region, is proud to announce the addition of robot-assisted spine surgery to its comprehensive suite of neurosurgical services. Under the direction of Dr. Jean Louis Benae and Dr. Yaw Sarpong, both board-certified neurosurgeons, the practice is now equipped to perform advanced robotic-guided spinal procedures that offer patients unparalleled precision and significantly improved recovery outcomes.
Robot-assisted spine surgery represents one of the most significant advancements in modern neurosurgical care. The technology enables surgeons to plan and execute complex spinal procedures with millimeter-level accuracy using real-time 3D imaging and robotic guidance. This translates directly into safer surgeries, reduced tissue damage, and better long-term outcomes for patients suffering from conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, and spinal fractures.
“Robot-assisted surgery is the natural evolution of our commitment to minimally invasive spine care,” said Dr. Jean Louis Benae, founder of North Texas Brain & Spine Specialists and a triple board-certified neurosurgeon with over 15 years of experience. “Our patients deserve access to the most advanced technology available, and robotic guidance allows us to achieve a level of precision that was simply not possible with traditional techniques. The result is less pain, smaller incisions, and a faster return to the activities our patients love.”
Key Benefits for Patients
Robot-assisted spine surgery at NTBSS offers several significant advantages over traditional open surgical techniques. The robotic system provides real-time intraoperative navigation, allowing surgeons to place screws and implants with accuracy rates exceeding 96%, compared to conventional methods. Patients benefit from smaller incisions, which means less blood loss during surgery, reduced risk of infection, and minimal scarring. Because the surrounding muscles and soft tissue experience far less disruption, patients typically experience significantly less postoperative pain and can return to daily activities much sooner than with traditional open surgery.
Conditions Treated with Robot-Assisted Spine Surgery
The robotic-assisted surgical platform at NTBSS can be utilized for a wide range of spinal procedures, including spinal fusion, laminectomy, discectomy, cervical foraminotomy, and deformity correction. Patients suffering from chronic back pain, neck pain, sciatica, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, and spinal tumors may be candidates for robot-assisted intervention.
