About
Alberto Carli is a leading orthopaedic surgeon-researcher whose work sits at the critical intersection of joint replacement surgery and advanced technology. His primary research focus is on how computer navigation and robotic assistance influence surgical outcomes, particularly the risk of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI)—a devastating complication following total joint arthroplasty. In a landmark 2023 propensity score-matched cohort analysis, Carli demonstrated that these technologies do not elevate PJI risk in primary total knee arthroplasty, despite concerns over increased operative time and additional equipment. He replicated these findings for total hip arthroplasty in a 2024 study, providing robust evidence that robotics and navigation can be safely integrated into routine practice. These contributions, which have already garnered nearly 30 citations, are vital for surgeons weighing the benefits of precision alignment against potential infection hazards. Carli’s work is notable for its methodological rigor and direct clinical relevance, offering reassurance that technological advances in arthroplasty can be adopted without compromising patient safety.
