PURPOSE: The percentage of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) performed robotically (rTKA) is rising exponentially. While this technique has well-established accuracy improvements, there are mixed patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) benefits compared to manual TKA (mTKA). Potential challenges in workflow, restricted implant compatibility to the robot and system cost have limited robotic adoption. A…
