About

Adam I. Edelstein is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on precision and personalization in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). His primary research areas include kinematic alignment, coronal plane alignment, and the validation of imageless robotic systems for knee replacement surgery. Dr. Edelstein has made significant contributions by demonstrating that imageless robotic TKA can determine Coronal Plane Alignment of the Knee (CPAK) parameters with accuracy comparable to traditional long leg radiographs, a finding that supports less invasive preoperative planning. His 2023 study on simulated kinematic alignment TKA, which has garnered 11 citations, critically examines how deviations from native joint restoration affect laxity, balance, and alignment—offering practical insights for surgeons adopting personalized alignment strategies. With his 2024 work already accumulating 8 citations, Dr. Edelstein is shaping the evidence base for modern, patient-specific arthroplasty techniques. His research bridges the gap between advanced robotic technology and clinical outcomes, making him a key voice in the evolution of more functional, durable knee replacements.
