Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty is a procedure that has demonstrated varying results historically. The primary issue identified was component malpositioning. The introduction of robotics into the surgical armamentarium over the past decade has led to the ability to have reproducible accurate component positioning with these implants and therefore has led to a resurgence of this procedure with the addition of new technology. The robotic systems available have evolved over the past decade to allow precise execution of the surgeon’s preoperative plan by minimizing aberrant bony resection, and allowing dynamic intraoperative ligamentous balancing. Herein, we describe our experience using the MAKO RIO system. A step-by-step instruction guide is provided within this chapter. Short-to-medium-term outcomes reported (revision rates) are comparable to historical rates seen for total knee arthroplasties within the literature. Long-term outcomes are not yet available for these implants, therefore future research must be performed to identify long-term revision rates and complications. |
