Computer Navigation-Assisted Knee Replacement Demonstrates Improved Outcome Compared with Conventional Knee Replacement at Mid-Term Follow-up: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: The study is a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective randomised control studies and prospective cohort studies of mid-term functional outcome of total knee replacement undertaken using imageless computer navigation compared with conventional instrumented total knee replacement. The literature search strategy included a search of the electronic databases, visual scanning of reference lists, hand searching of key journals and conference proceedings, and abstracts, citations, and trial registers. In total, 440 papers were retrieved after removal of duplicates, and with further screening, 11 papers were included in the systematic review and 6 papers were considered appropriate for meta-analysis. Analysis of the data showed evidence of a modest improvement in functional outcome at
