This research paper investigates whether robotic total knee replacement (TKR) reduces bone resection compared to conventional TKR. While TKR is a successful procedure, revision surgery remains a challenge with up to 8.3% of all knee replacement procedures requiring revisions.
The study retrospectively analyzed the tibial polyethylene inserts used and bone cuts made in 157 primary TKRs performed by a single surgeon. The results show that 93.3% of robotic TKRs used the base size tibial polyethylene of 9 mm, and the average distal femoral cut was 7.4 mm and the average tibial cut was 6.4 mm, with the minimum being 3 mm.
The study suggests that robotic TKR reduces bone resection compared to conventional TKR.
本研究论文探讨了与传统全膝关节置换术（TKR）相比，机器人辅助全膝关节置换术是否能减少骨切除量。虽然全膝关节置换术是一种成功的手术，但翻修手术仍然是一项挑战，所有膝关节置换手术中高达8.3%需要进行翻修。
该研究回顾性分析了由一名外科医生进行的157例初次全膝关节置换术中使用的胫骨聚乙烯衬垫和所做的骨切口。结果显示，93.3%的机器人辅助全膝关节置换术使用的胫骨聚乙烯基础尺寸为9毫米，股骨远端平均截骨量为7.4毫米，胫骨平均截骨量为6.4毫米，最小截骨量为3毫米。
该研究表明，与传统全膝关节置换术相比，机器人辅助全膝关节置换术可减少骨切除量。
