Title : Excellent knee arthroplasty outcome with combination of robotic and subvastus muscle sparing approach
Abstract:
Combining robotic Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) with a subvastus muscle-sparing approach shows promising outcomes by enhancing implant precision and minimizing soft tissue damage compared to conventional techniques, leading to improved patient satisfaction and better functional recovery.
Robotic technology offers greater accuracy in placing the implant and aligning the knee joint, potentially leading to better long-term function and reduced revision rates.
The subvastus approach, also known as a quadriceps-sparing approach, aims to preserve the integrity of the quadriceps muscle, which can lead to faster recovery of muscle strength and improved range of motion.
Patients often report less pain and a quicker return to daily activities, including increased and earlier range of motion, with robotic TKR performed through a subvastus approach studies suggest a reduction in patient dissatisfaction with TKA when utilizing these combined techniques.
Some research indicates that robotic TKA may be associated with fewer readmission rates and shorter hospital stays compared to conventional TKA.
