Abstract：
Robotic total knee replacement (TKR) surgery has evolved over the years with the aim of improving the overall 80% satisfaction rate associated with TKR surgery. Proponents claim higher precision in executing the pre-operative plan which results in improved alignment and possibly better clinical outcomes. Opponents suggest longer operative times with potentially higher complications and no superiority in clinical outcomes alongside increased costs. This editorial will summarize where we currently stand and the future implications of using robotics in knee replacement surgery.
摘要：
机器人全膝关节置换（TKR）手术多年来一直在发展，旨在提高与TKR手术相关的总满意度80％。支持者声称在执行术前计划时具有更高的精度，从而改善了对准并可能获得更好的临床结果。反对者建议手术时间更长，并发症可能更高，在临床结果和成本增加方面没有优势。这篇社论将总结我们目前的立场以及在膝关节置换手术中使用机器人技术的未来意义。
