About

Dr. Hong An Lim has fundamentally advanced the field of orthopedic surgery through pioneering work in robotic-assisted joint replacement. His primary research focuses on the long-term outcomes of robotic total knee arthroplasty (TKA), particularly with cruciate-retaining implants. Dr. Lim’s landmark 10-year follow-up study, which has garnered 137 citations, provided compelling evidence that robotic TKA achieves superior accuracy in leg alignment and component positioning compared to conventional techniques. This work has been instrumental in validating the durability and clinical benefits of robotic assistance, demonstrating sustained improvements in patient function and implant survival over a decade. Beyond this seminal contribution, Dr. Lim’s research portfolio explores the intersection of surgical precision and patient-specific outcomes, helping to establish evidence-based protocols that enhance recovery and reduce revision rates. His rigorous comparative studies have shaped modern surgical practice, offering orthopedic surgeons and trainees a clear roadmap for integrating robotic technology. For students and researchers, Dr. Lim’s work represents a gold standard in long-term clinical investigation, proving that technological innovation, when rigorously tested, can meaningfully transform patient care in joint arthroplasty.
