The robotic exoscope is safe and effective for patients undergoing GBM surgery, with a majority achieving large-volume resections. These patients experienced complication profiles similar to those undergoing treatment with the traditional microscope. Further studies are needed to assess direct comparisons between exoscope and microscope-assisted GBM resection.
