About
Dr. Assem A. Sultan is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on the transformative potential of robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA). His major contributions have systematically defined the value and learning curve of this technology, demonstrating through multiple high-impact studies that robotic assistance improves patient satisfaction, soft tissue protection, and the accuracy of critical alignment parameters like posterior condylar offset and the Insall-Salvati index. His research, which has garnered over 1,000 citations, includes seminal papers such as his 2017 study on patient satisfaction outcomes (193 citations) and his analysis of the learning curve for robotic TKA (193 citations). Notably, Dr. Sultan has also shown that robotic techniques can reliably correct severe coronal deformities and has provided a comprehensive value proposition for the technology. His work extends to total hip arthroplasty, where he has analyzed operative time trends over 15 years. Through this rigorous, outcomes-focused research, Dr. Sultan has established himself as a key voice in the evidence-based adoption of robotics in joint replacement surgery.
