Synopsis

Sixty patients undergoing unilateral primary TKA were randomized to receive surgery with a handheld semi-active robot (n=32) or a control group without robotic assistance (n=28). The primary outcomes of interest were postoperative mechanical alignment, joint line deviation and prosthesis rotation. The robotic group demonstrated improved overall mechanical alignment and reduced joint line deviatio...
