Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for robotically assisted implantation of an implant in a patient. A system includes an external positioning unit configured to engage an elongate member of the implant, and a control console communicatively coupled to the external positioning unit. The control console may have a user interface that enables a user to input motion control instructions. The control console may generate a motion control signal, according to a specific motion control instruction, to control the external positioning unit to propel the implant into a target implant site. The system may be used to robotically control the delivery and positing of a cochlear implant during a hearing-preservation cochlear implant surgery.

Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for device-assisted manipulation of an implant's position in a patient, such as for delivering and positioning a cochlear implant. An exemplary modular system includes an implant position manipulator (IPM) unit reversibly engaging an elongate member of an implant, and a user control device for applying driving force to the IPM unit to regulate the motion of the implant. The system may include sensors providing feedback on the position or the motion of the implant, or the force or friction applied to the implant during the implantation procedure.

Abstract: An aneurysm treatment system includes a sleeve with a breach or a breachable facet disposed therein. The facet allows a guide structure to breach the sleeve and to deliver a portion of the sleeve continuously to an aneurysm.
