Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To review and evaluate the research progress of the robot-assisted joint arthroplasty. METHODS: The domestic and foreign related research literature on robot-assisted joint arthroplasty was extensively consulted. The advantages, disadvantages, effectiveness, and future prospects were mainly reviewed and summarized. RESULTS: The widely recognized advantages of robot-assisted joint arthroplasty are digital and intelligent preoperative planning, accurate intraoperative prosthesis implantation, and quantitative soft tissue balance, as well as good postoperative imaging prosthesis position and alignment. However, the advantages of effectiveness are still controversial. The main disadvantages of robot-assisted joint arthroplasty are the high price of the robot system, the prolonged operation time, and the increased radioactive damage of the imaging-dependent system. CONCLUSION: Compared to traditional arthroplasty, robot-assisted joint arthroplasty can improve the accuracy of the prosthesis position and assist in the quantitative assessment of soft tissue tension, and the repeatability rate is high. In the future, further research is needed to evaluate the clinical function and survival rate of the prosthesis, as well as to optimize the robot system.
