title: [Osseous processes of the skull--analysis of requirements for robot-assisted surgery].
abstract: To design a roboter-assisted trepanation setting of the cranium, an evaluation was done to classify patients with osseous lesions according to pathologies, dimensions and localisations. Emphasis was laid on dimensions and localisation of the pathology to gain information on future configurations of work spaces for robotics in the neurosurgical operation room. All patients with surgery of osseous lesions of the cranium in the years 1993-2001 were evaluated retrospectively. Localisations, dimensions of trepanation and histologic results were evaluated.
