About
Dr. Igor Lazic is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through robotic-assisted technology. His primary research areas include surgical precision, postoperative recovery, and comparative outcomes between robotic arm-assisted (raTKA) and manual techniques. Dr. Lazic’s major contributions demonstrate that raTKA significantly reduces postoperative inflammatory response and blood loss, as shown in a matched-pairs analysis of 688 patients—a finding with direct implications for enhanced early recovery and reduced soft tissue trauma. He also established that postoperative full-leg radiographs reveal less residual coronal varus deformity than intraoperative MAKO™ system measurements, challenging assumptions about alignment accuracy in robotic surgery. His most-cited work (19 citations) has helped refine understanding of limb alignment assessment, while his larger-scale study (4 citations) provides robust evidence for the physiological benefits of robotic assistance. Dr. Lazic’s research is instrumental in shaping modern orthopedic practice, offering surgeons and patients data-driven insights into the tangible advantages of robotic arm-assisted TKA over conventional methods.
