Introduction: Augmented reality can improve planning and execution of surgical procedures. Head-mounted devices such as the HoloLens® (Microsoft, Redmond, WA, USA) are particularly suitable to achieve these aims because they are controlled by hand gestures and enable contactless handling in a sterile environment. Objectives: So far, these systems have not yet found their way into the operating room for surgery of the parotid gland. This study explored the feasibility and accuracy of augmented reality-assisted parotid surgery. Methods: 2D MRI holographic images were created, and 3D holograms were reconstructed from MRI DICOM files and made visible via the HoloLens. 2D MRI slices were scrolled through, 3D images were rotated, and 3D structures were shown and hidden only using hand gestures. The 3D model and the patient were aligned manually. Results: The use of augmented reality with the HoloLens in parotic surgery was feasible. Gestures were recognized correctly. Mean accuracy of superimposition of the holographic model and patient's anatomy was 1.3 cm. Highly significant differences were seen in position error of registration between central and peripheral structures (p = 0.0059), with a least deviation of 10.9 mm (centrally) and highest deviation for the peripheral parts (19.6-mm deviation). Conclusion: This pilot study offers a first proof of concept of the clinical feasibility of the HoloLens for parotid tumor surgery. Workflow is not affected, but addition al information is provided. The surgical performance could become safer through the navigation-like application of reality-fused 3D holograms, and it improves ergonomics without compromising sterility. Superimposition of the 3D holograms with the surgical field was possible, but further invention is necessary to improve the accuracy.
