Reduced postoperative inflammation and blood loss after robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental compared with total knee arthroplasty: A propensity score‐matched analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Robotic arm‐assisted unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (raUKA) offers potential advantages over robotic arm‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (raTKA), but its biological benefits remain unclear. Superior early recovery after raUKA may be related to reduced systemic inflammation and blood loss.
