Three screws were placed percutaneously to fix the capitate-lunate joint, lunate-triquetrum joint, and triquetrum-hamate-capitate joint in each specimen by robot-assisted or freehand technique. The offset between the actual and planned screw positions was determined by merging the images of intraoperative and postoperative CT scans in the robot-assisted group. The centrality of the screw, time-consuming, drilling attempts, and radiation exposure were compared between the two groups.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The mean offset between the actual and planned screw position was 1.09 (SD: 0.56) mm. The offset at the start point of the screw was significantly lower than that at the endpoint. There was no significant difference in the centrality of the screws, surgical time between the two groups. The number of drilling attempts and the radiation dose received by surgeons were significantly lower in the robot-assisted group.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Although there was no significant difference in screw centrality between the two groups, the slight offset between the actual and planned screw positions confirmed the feasibility of the robot-assisted technique in four-corner fusion.
