ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study aimed to evaluate implant survivor-ship, complications, and re-operation rates following robotic arm-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) at mid-term follow-up.METHODS:
Patient satisfaction, clinical outcome, and knee alignment restoration were evaluated. All patients undergo-ing robotic arm-assisted medial UKA during a 2-year period were prospectively enrolled. Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, varus-valgus deformity, and knee range of motion were studied pre- and postoperatively. Revisions and surgery-related complications were recorded.RESULTS:
Eighty-five patients were included in the study (mean age 71.2 years). The mean follow-up was 74.7 months. One conversion to total knee arthroplasty was performed due to periprosthetic fracture 4.5 years after initial surgery result-ing in a survivorship rate of 98.8%. Overall satisfaction was excellent; 97.7% of patients were satisfied or very satisfied, while none was dissatisfied or very dissatisfied. WOMAC score in total, as well as in each component, exhibited sig-nificant improvement postoperatively. Additionally, knee alignment in the coronal plane as well as flexion contracture were significantly improved following the procedure.CONCLUSIONS:
The outcomes of the present cohort revealed that precise prosthesis implantation through the robotic arm-assisted system in UKA provided excellent overall satisfac-tion rates and clinical outcomes at mid-term follow-up.
