Joint line is restored in robotic-arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty performed with a tibia-based functional alignment.

The proposed robotic-assisted functional technique for TKA alignment, with a restricted tibial component coronal alignment, based on the preoperative phenotype and femoral component positioning as dictated by the soft tissues, provided joint line respecting resections. Further studies are needed to assess long-term implant survivorship, patient satisfaction and alignment-related failures.
