To the surgeons, engineers, industry leaders, and executives who have contributed tremendous time and energy to the advancement of robotic science and technology in surgery and who recognize that this is just the beginning of a field that will continue to evolve and expand throughout all aspects of healthcare. To my mentors, role models, and former partners – Drs. Paul Lotke and the late Richard Rothman – who encouraged my intellectual curiosity in the robotic space. To our fellows and residents whom I hope will further explore and develop the field of robotics into the future, in ways that we are not yet considering. Most importantly, to my wife, Ami, and our children, Carson and Jared – my greatest joys in life.
Foreword
In the past few decades, there have been great changes in the science related to knee and hip replacement surgery. Robotics in Knee and Hip Arthroplasty is a testament to the newest advances in this ever-emerging process. When total hips and total knees were first introduced four decades ago, the acetabular reaming was guided with a drill hole in the bottom of the acetabulum, in the knee the proximal tibial osteotomy was guided with the wide osteotome placed along the lo
