Description
Gary Doan and four co-authors test a new robot help with no scans for part-knee swaps, set against hand tools, in donor bodies. Their study appeared in twenty twenty-six. Part-knee swaps heal fast but fail and need redo more than full swaps. Robots aim to place parts with more truth to cut redo risk.
Six surgeons each did both legs of forty donor knees, robot on one leg and hand tools on the other. Scans before and after let the team check cut angles and depths against the plan. Robot cuts hit angles with far more truth on most marks. Both ways hit depth and leg line well, but robot work had far fewer wild misses.
