Robot-Assisted vs Conventional TKA: Improved Alignment Without Early Functional Gains
Better radiological outcomes but equal clinical function of a novel knee arthroplasty robot system: a prospective randomized controlled trial.
Int Orthop . 2025 Jul;49(7):1679-1687.Synopsis
One hundred thirty-nine patients with knee osteoarthritis were randomized to receive robot-assisted Total Knee Arthoplasty (TKA ) (n=73) or conventional instrumented TKA (n=66). The primary outcome was the proportion with ≤3° deviation between planned and postoperative mechanical axis (HKA) at 12 weeks. Secondary outcomes included component alignment angles (FFC, FTC, LFC, LTC), operative time, bl...
