While use of robotic platforms can improve this positioning, published evidence on its clinical benefits is limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the clinical outcomes of THA with robotic surgical assistance.\nMaterials and Methods: We conducted an analysis of robotic arm-assisted primary THAs performed by a single surgeon utilizing a posterior approach. A total of 99 patients (107 cases) who had a minimum two-year follow up were identified. Their mean age was 61 years (range, 33 to 84 years), and their mean body mass index was 30.5 kg\/m2 (range, 18.5 to 49.1 kg\/m2). There were 56% female patients and primary osteoarthritis was the principal hip diagnosis in 88.8%. Operative times, lengths of hospital stay, and discharge dispositions were recorded, along with any complications. Modified Harris Hip Scores (HHS) were calculated to quantify clinical outcomes.\nResults: Mean postoperative increases in HHS at 2- to 5.7-year follow up was 33 points (range, 6 to 77 points). There were no complications attributable to the use of robotic assistance. Surgical-site complications were rare; one case underwent a revision for prosthetic joint infection (0.93%) but there were no dislocations, periprosthetic fractures, or cases of mechanical implant loosening. There was no evidence of progressive radiolucencies or radiographic failure.\nDiscussion: Robotic arm-assisted THA resulted in low complication rates at minimum two-year follow up, with clinical outcomes comparable to those reported with manual surgery.1\u20134 The haptically-guided acetabular bone preparation enabled reliable cementless acetabular fixation and there were no adverse events related to the use of the robot. Dislocations were avoided in this case series. Randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to compare manual to robotic surgery and to investigate whether the precision found with this functional planning will reliably reduce the incidence of dislocations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.52198\/21.sti.38.os1420","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,14]],"date-time":"2021-06-14T20:27:18Z","timestamp":1623702438000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Adoption of Robotic Arm-Assisted Total Hip Arthroplasty Results in Reliable Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes at Minimum Two-Year Follow Up"],"prefix":"10.52198","author":[{"given":"Matthew","family":"Hepinstall","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Robotics & Navigation NYU Langone Health  New York, New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Harrison","family":"Zucker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra\/Northwell Hempstead, New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chelsea","family":"Matzko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedic Institute at Lenox Hill New York, New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Morteza","family":"Meftah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"NYU Langone Orthopedic Center New York, New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Mont","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Northwell Health Orthopaedics Lenox Hill Hospital New York,\u00a0New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"18996","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","unstructured":"1.
