Abstract

Robotic-assisted joint reconstruction has gradually become a routine procedure in clinical practice. Robots enhance surgical precision, minimize soft tissue damage, and improve clinical outcomes in joint reconstruction. This article will discuss the impact of surgical robots on joint reconstruction surgery, transitioning from empirical knowledge to analytical understanding, and from experiential practice to refined precision. The application of robotic technology facilitates the parameterization and multivariable modeling of surgical parameters in joint replacement procedures, enabling the analytical elucidation of inter-parameter relationships. This variability and analytical capability endow the surgeons with an unprecedented level of multi-faceted information perception and information processing and analysis abilities. These innovations not only deepen but also revolutionize traditional understandings of joint replacement surgery, reshaping its objectives, procedural approaches, and prosthesis selection strategies. The optimization and individualization of multiple surgical parameters in joint reconstruction are now becoming achievable.
