Conversion of Patellofemoral Arthroplasty to Robotic-Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty

Conversion of patellofemoral arthroplasty to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been described as similar to primary TKA, although it may come with more challenges and worse outcomes. With the increased rate of revision following conversion TKA vs primary TKA, robotically assisted TKA provides an alt...

Sumario:Conversion of patellofemoral arthroplasty to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been described as similar to primary TKA, although it may come with more challenges and worse outcomes. With the increased rate of revision following conversion TKA vs primary TKA, robotically assisted TKA provides an alternative technique to manual conversion. We present 3 cases of robot-assisted conversion of prior patellofemoral arthroplasty to TKA with good mechanical and clinical outcomes and no intraoperative complications.
