Robotic‐assisted technology does not influence functional outcomes among obese and morbidly obese total knee arthroplasty patients

Abstract Purpose Despite benefits of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) on function and quality of life, obese patients have less improved functional outcomes following TKA compared to their normal weight counterparts. Furthermore, obesity is a risk factor for aseptic loosening and revision surgery follo...
