ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to compare the short term clinical and radiological outcomes of imageless robotic and conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to estimate the accuracy of the two techniques by analysing the outliers after TKA. We have evaluated 200 consecutive knees (158 patients), 100 knees undergoing robotic TKA, and 100 knees treated with conventional TKA. Demographic parameters like age, gender, body mass index, diagnosis and range of motion were obtained. Knee society score (KSS) and Knee society functional score (KSS-F) were used for clinical evaluation. Mechanical alignment (Hip-knee-ankle angle), proximal tibial angle (MPTA), distal femoral angle (LDFA) and tibial slope were analysed for radiological results and outliers were compared between both groups. Outliers were defined when the measured angle exceeded ± 3° from the neutral alignment in each radiological measurement on the final follow-up radiograph.The minimum follow-up was 6 months (range, 6 to 18 months). The preoperative mean HKA angle was 169.7 ± 11.3° in robotic group and 169.3 ± 7.3° in conventional group. There was significant improvement in HKA, LDFA, MPTA and tibial slope compared to the preoperative values in both the groups (p < 0.01). The number of HKA, LDFA and tibial slope outliers were 31, 29 and 37, respectively, in the conventional group compared to 13, 23 and 17 in the robotic group (p < 0.01). There was a significant improvement in the KSS and KSS-F functional scores postoperatively in both the groups (p < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference in the functional scores between the groups postoperatively (p = 0.08). This study showed excellent improvement with both imageless robotic and conventional TKA, with similar clinical outcomes between both groups. However, radiologically robotic TKA showed better accuracy and consistency with fewer outliers compared with conventional TKA.
