Popis: Haptic robotic-arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) seeks to leverage three-dimensional planning, intraoperative assessment of ligament laxity, and guided bone preparation to establish and achieve patient-specific targets for implant position. We sought to compare (1) operative details, (2) knee alignment, (3) recovery of knee function, and (4) complications during adoption of this technique to our experience with manual TKA. We compared 120 RATKAs performed between December 2016 and July 2018 to 120 consecutive manual TKAs performed between May 2015 and January 2017. Operative details, lengths of stay (LOS), and discharge dispositions were collected. Tibiofemoral angles, Knee Society Scores (KSS), and ranges of motion were assessed until 3 months postoperatively. Manipulations under anesthesia, complications, and reoperations were tabulated. Mean operative times were 22 minutes longer in RATKA (p
