Patient-Reported Outcomes in Robotic-Assisted vs Manual Cementless Total Knee Arthroplasty
RA-TKA demonstrated significant improvement over manual jig-based instruments in KSS Function, KSS Knee, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement, and patient satisfaction scores following primary TKA with no differences in complications and revision incidence. RA-TKA provided a virtual 3-dimensional preoperative plan along with intraoperative information for adjustments to approximate the patients' native joint line and achieve a well-balanced soft-tissue sleeve about the knee for primary TKA.
