Robot assisted versus Conventional Total Knee Arthroplasty: A prospective randomized controlled trial featuring long term follow-up

3 pagesPublished: July 12, 2018

Abstract

This study determined if robot assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) allows for more accurate alignment, better clinical outcome and long term survival rate compared with conventional TKA. 155 consecutive patients who underwent primary TKA were followed more than ten years. Robotic-assisted TKA appears to reduce the number of mechanical axis alignment outliers without any differences in clinical scores, complications and survival rates when compared to conventional manual techniques.

Keyphrases: conventional, robot assisted, total knee arthroplasty
