A Comprehensive Guide to Robotic Knee Arthroplasty

Orthopaedic surgery stands at a transformative crossroads, where precision, personalisation, and technological innovation are reshaping conventional practices.One of the most significant advances in recent years is the integration of robotic technology into total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Once considered futuristic, robotic-assisted knee replacement has now become an essential and evolving aspect of modern surgical care, offering improved accuracy, consistency, and patient outcomes.Based on the authors' vast array of experience, this book is a comprehensive guide to robotic knee arthroplasty, not only explaining the mechanics of various robotic platforms, but also contextualising their use in real-world clinical scenarios.Throughout this book, a conscious effort is made to keep the content evidence-based, yet clinically oriented and easy to navigate.Chapters begin with the evolution and rationale behind robotic TKA and gradually unfold into detailed discussions on different robotic systems-CUVIS, MISSO, MAKO, VALYS, CORI, ROSA, and more.Each system is examined with a focus on its unique features, operational workflow, indications, benefits, limitations, and clinical outcomes. Comparisons between systems are drawn when relevant to aid in practical decision making.
