No difference between computer-assisted and conventional total knee arthroplasty: five-year results of a prospective randomised study
Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. 2013 Oct;21(10):2241-780 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty participated in this study to determine the effectiveness of computer-assisted surgery compared to conventional approaches.
