This is another interesting study looking at the risk of revision surgery after knee #arthroplasty. Our patients will appreciate such clarity of communication about risk of revision.

Patients undergoing robotic-arm assisted THA had a greater hip-specific functional outcome when compared to manual THA, which may be related to improved component positioning and restoration of leg length.

Although golfers had a greater improvement in their hip-specific function compared to non-golfers after THA, less than three-quarters of patients return to play.
