Better accuracy of robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty compared to conventional technique in patients with failed high tibial osteotomy.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes, mechanical axis, component positioning, leg length discrepancy (LLD), and polyethylene liner thickness between robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and conventional TKA in patients with failed high tibial osteotomy (HTO).

Methods

A total of 30 patients (30 knees) with failed HTO who underwent TKA using a robot-assisted system between June 2020 and December 2023 were included in this study (robotic group). Additionally, 60 patients (60 knees) with failed HTO who underwent conventional TKA were included as controls (conventional group). Propensity score matching was performed using a 2:1 ratio between the matched participants. The mean follow-up period was 2.1 years in the robotic group and 2.2 years in the c
