Abstract:Objective To explore the short-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of domestic robot assisted total knee arthroplasty(RATKA).Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted.The patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for TKA surgery during the period from October 2021 to March 2022 were selected and divided into RATKA group and conventional group randomly.A total of 23 patients were finally included and divided into RATKA group and conventional TKA group by random envelope method.There were 11 patients in the RATKA group,among them 3 males and 8 females.Their mean age is (68.7±7.8) years old.There were 12 patients in the traditional TKA group,which had 1 male and 11 females.Their mean age was (70.8±5.0) years old.The radiographical accuracy indicators of the two groups of patients were recorded and analyzed as well as clinical efficacy indicators,including the lower limb alignment and prosthesis position,operation time,blood loss,functional score,perioperative complications,etc.Results For radiographical indicators,the deviation value of HKA in RATKA group was lower than that in conventional TKA group,which were(1.16±1.14) °and (2.56±1.90) °,P=0.047,respectively.The deviation value of LTC was also lower than that in traditional TKA group,which were (0.95±0.71) ° and (1.75±0.98) °,P=0.039.The operation time in RATKA group was (125.0 ± 8.4) min,which was significantly longer than that in traditional TKA group (101.0±28.5) min,P=0.027.As for the osteotomy time,perioperative blood loss,range of motion (ROM),clinical scores,there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of perioperative complications between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion With the help of domestic RATKA system,the initial total knee replacement is more accurate in lower limb alignment and lateral tibial prosthesis installation.It’s safe,reliable and worth promotion in clinic.
