Small deviations between planned and performed bone cuts using a CT-based robotic-arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty system.

Purpose: Computed tomography (CT)-based robotic system for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has shown improved accuracy compared to conventional. This study was designed to (1) confirm the accuracy of the robotic system in achieving the plan and (2) establish the alignment and positioning deviation between final components and planning, by measuring the discrepancy between final implant alignment and the corresponding planned cut.

Methods: Ninety-six cementless robotic-arm assisted (RA) TKAs were assessed.

High return to sport rate in patients undergoing image-based robotic arm assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.

Introduction: This study was aimed to assess the return to sport (RTS) rate in patients who underwent CT-based robotic-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (RA-UKA) and to evaluate the clinical performance and the assocition between patients' sport activity levels and Patient Reported Outcome Measures after surgery.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 218 patients undergoing medial RA-UKA with fixed-bearing implants, performed at a single center between 2014 and 2019. Patients were allocated into two groups based on sport's practice and were administered the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) activity scale, Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS-JR) and the 5-Level Likert Scale.
