Abstract：
Bilateral Wilms tumour (BWT) is a surgically challenging condition. Virtual reality (VR) reconstruction aids surgeons to foresee the anatomy ahead of Nephron Sparing Surgery (NSS). Three-dimensional (3D) visualisation improves the anatomical orientation of surgeons performing NSS. We herewith report a case of BWT where VR planning and 3D printing were used to aid NSS. Conventional imaging is often found to be inadequate while assessing the tumour-organ-vascular anatomy. Advances like VR and 3D printing help surgeons plan better for complex surgeries like bilateral NSS. Next-generation extended reality tools will likely aid robotic-assisted precision NSS and improve patient outcomes.
摘要：
双侧肾母细胞瘤（BWT）是一种具有手术挑战性的疾病。虚拟现实（VR）重建帮助外科医生在保留肾单位手术（NSS）之前预见解剖结构。三维（3D）可视化改善了执行NSS的外科医生的解剖方向。我们在此报告一例BWT，其中VR计划和3D打印用于辅助NSS。在评估肿瘤-器官-血管解剖结构时，通常发现常规成像不足。VR和3D打印等进步帮助外科医生更好地计划复杂的手术，如双侧NSS。下一代扩展现实工具可能会帮助机器人辅助精确NSS并改善患者预后。
