The aim of this study was to report patient and clinical outcomes following robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) at multiple institutions with a minimum two-year follow-up. This was a multicentre registry study from October 2016 to June 2021 that included 861 primary RA-TKA patients who completed at least one pre- and postoperative patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) questionnaire, including Forgotten Joint Score (FJS), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score for Joint Replacement (KOOS JR), and pain out of 100 points. The mean age was 67 years (35 to 86), 452 were male (53%), mean BMI was 31.5 kg/m2 (19 to 58), and 553 (64%) cemented and 308 (36%) cementless implants.Aims
Methods
The October 2012 Knee Roundup360 looks at: autologous chondrocytes and chondromalacia patellae; drilling the femoral tunnel at ACL reconstruction; whether we repair the radially torn lateral meniscus; factors associated with patellofemoral pain; mechanoreceptors and the allografted ACL; whether high tibial osteotomy can delay the need for knee replacement; return to sport after ACL reconstruction; tissue-engineered cartilage; and the benefits of yoga.
