Mid- to long-term complications and revision rates of robotic-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) is a commonly performed procedure for patients with isolated osteoarthritis (OA). In recent years, robotic-assisted UKA (RAUKA) has raised concerns regarding its revision rates and risk of complications. This study aims to compare the mid- to long-term complications and revision rates between RAUKA and traditional UKA, providing evidence to support its clinical application.

Methods

In accordance with PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review of studies comparing complication and revision rates between RAUKA and traditional UKA, with a minimum average follow-up duration of three years. Comprehensive searches were conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases, with a cutoff date of October 1, 20
