Robotic neurosurgery can contribute to this goal, but its application in BCI surgery has been underexplored. Here, the authors present a novel robot-assisted surgical technique to implant rigid intracortical microelectrode arrays for the BCI. Using this technique, the authors performed surgery in a 31-year-old male with tetraplegia due to a traumatic C4 spinal cord injury that occurred a decade earlier. Each of the arrays was embedded into the parenchyma with a single insertion without complication. Postoperative imaging verified that the devices were placed as intended. With the motor cortex arrays, the participant successfully accomplished 2D control of a virtual arm and hand, with a success rate of 20 of 20 attempts, and recording quality was maintained at 100 and 200 days postimplantation. Intracortical microstimulation of the somatosensory cortex arrays elicited sensations in the fingers and palm. A robotic neurosurgery technique was successfully translated into BCI device implantation as part of an early feasibility trial with the long-term goal of restoring upper-limb function. The technique was demonstrated to be accurate and subsequently contributed to high-quality signal communication.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/2024.7.jns241296","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,6]],"date-time":"2024-12-06T20:45:59Z","timestamp":1733517959000},"page":"1280-1288","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["A novel robot-assisted method for implanting intracortical sensorimotor devices for brain-computer interface studies: principles, surgical techniques, and challenges"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"142","author":[{"given":"Naoki","family":"Ikegaya","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurological Surgery,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arka N.","family":"Mallela","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurological Surgery,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter C.","family":"Warnke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurological Surgery and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicolas G.","family":"Kunigk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bioengineering, and"},{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"},{"name":"Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hunter R.","family":"Schone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"},{"name":"Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ceci","family":"Verbaarschot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"},{"name":"Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicholas G.","family":"Hatsopoulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Organismal Biology and Anatomy, University of Chicago, Illinois; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John E.","family":"Downey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Organismal Biology and Anatomy, University of Chicago, Illinois; and"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael L.","family":"Boninger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bioengineering, and"},{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"},{"name":"Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robert","family":"Gaunt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bioengineering, and"},{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"},{"name":"Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer L.","family":"Collinger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bioengineering, and"},{"name":"Rehab Neural Engineering Labs, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania"},{"name":"Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jorge A.","family":"Gonzalez-Martinez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of Neurological Surgery,"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","article-title":"Spinal cord injury.
