    Abstract:
    This study was conducted to compare the changes in different clinical scores and imaging indexes of patients who underwent robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) and manual total knee arthroplasty (M-TKA). PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Embase were searched according to PRISMA guidelines in June 2024. Search terms included "robot-assisted", "manual" and "total knee arthroplasty". Outcome indicators included American Knee Society Score (KSS), Western Ontario McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Oxford Knee Score (OKS), range of motion (ROM), Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, Forgotten Joint Score (FJS), 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), operation duration (min), intraoperative blood loss (ml), pain score, patient's satisfaction scores, hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angle, frontal femoral component angle, frontal tibia component angle, lateral femoral component angle and lateral tibia component angle. A total of 1,033 articles were obtained after removing duplicates, and 12 studies involving 2,863 patients (1,449 RA-TKAs and 1,414 M-TKAs) were finally meta-analyzed (22-32). The baseline data of both groups were similar in all results. Meta-analysis suggested a better performance of the RA-TKA group than the M-TKA group regarding the HKA angle. The manual TKA reduced the operation time and significantly improved the range of motion. The results of > 6 months follow-up showed that M-TKA was better than RA-TKA in terms of KSS score and WOMAC. Compared with M-TKA, RA-TKA can produce more accurate prosthetic alignment, but it does not lead to better clinical results. Orthopedic surgeons should choose between two surgical procedures according to their own experience and patients' characteristics.
