ABSTRACT: Background
Despite the increasing use of robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (r-TKA), data on functional outcomes remain limited. This study evaluated 6-week range of motion (ROM) outcomes in patients who underwent r-TKA vs conventional TKA (c-TKA) to determine whether robotic assistance improves early postoperative ROM.Methods
A retrospective analysis was conducted on consecutive patients who underwent primary TKA by a single surgeon using r-TKA or c-TKA between 2019 and 2023. Exclusion criteria included simultaneous bilateral, revision, unicompartmental, and posttraumatic conversion arthroplasties. Knee flexion and extension ROM were measured preoperatively and at standardized 2- and 6-week postoperative visits. Manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) rates for postopera
