Prosthesis Alignment in Robotic Assisted TKA .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Robotic-assisted TKA leads to a better prosthesis alignment and a better joint line restoration as compared to conventional TKA: a prospective randomized controlled trial
Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc . 2022 Feb;30(2):621-626.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 deviation compared to the control group. No differences in femoral component rotation was noted on postoperative CT scan.
