Introduction: robotic arm-assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.

摘要

Robotic arm-assisted technology is a "disruptive technology" that dramatically enhances the technical performance of unicompartmental surgery, optimizes radiographic alignment of components, and improves early recovery. This technology, which challenges standard UKA instrumentation (ie, intramedullary and extramedullary guides, pinned cutting blocks, jigs, and saws), uses burrs of different sizes, reduces inventory, and optimizes application of minimally invasive approaches, which have been difficult with conventional UKA.
