Initial Experience With VELYS Robot-Assisted Total Knee Replacement: Coronal Plane Accuracy and Effect of Robotic Training on Outcomes
The VELYS™ robot-assisted system produces an accurate correction of coronal alignment. As the surgeon's experience increases with the system, there is a reduction in tourniquet time; however, the degree of deformity correction is comparable to that when he had no experience. Hence the benefits of RATKA are not limited to only surgeons having specific training in robotic-assisted knee replacement.
