About
Arthur L. Malkani is a prominent orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the field of total knee arthroplasty (TKA), with a particular focus on robotic-assisted surgical technologies. His research has helped establish the clinical and patient-centered value of robotic arm-assisted TKA, addressing critical questions around surgical precision, patient satisfaction, and postoperative outcomes. Among his most influential contributions are two landmark 2017 studies — each accumulating 193 citations — that evaluated patient satisfaction and the learning curve associated with robotic-assisted TKA, providing foundational evidence for its adoption in mainstream orthopedic practice. His subsequent work demonstrated that robotic-assisted techniques yield improved patient satisfaction, reduced postoperative pain, decreased opioid consumption, and more accurate anatomical restoration compared to conventional methods. With publications spanning randomized controlled trials, multicenter registry studies, and cohort analyses, Malkani has built a robust, evidence-based body of work with a collective citation count exceeding 800 across his top papers alone. His research is essential reading for surgeons and trainees seeking to understand how emerging technologies can meaningfully improve outcomes and reshape the future of joint replacement surgery.
