Although total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective treatment for end-stage knee arthritis, improvements in surgical technique remain a necessity. Contemporary designs have bolstered durability, but longer life expectancies have placed an even greater emphasis on survivorship. Additionally, patient satisfaction remains an issue. A prospective randomized clinical trial (RCT) is proposed to compare robotically-assisted versus manually executed primary (TKAs). This study is designed to address the major short-term clinically important issues between the two types of procedures with special emphasis on functional outcome. Patients will be randomized to receive either a robotically-assisted or a manually-executed primary TKA.
