Does robotic-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty have lower complication and revision rates than the conventional procedure? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis of studies on patients who underwent unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to compare the complication rates, revision rates and non-implant-specific complications between robotic-assisted and conventional UKA.

Design

Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Data sources

The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane databases were searched up to 30 June 2020.

Eligibility criteria

Case-control studies comparing robotic-assisted and conventional UKA.

Data extraction and synthesis

Data from all eligible articles were independently extracted by two authors. We analysed the differences in outcomes between robotic-assisted and conventional UKA by calculating the corresponding 95% CIs and pooled r
