About
Bernardo Innocenti is a leading voice in the intersection of robotics and orthopaedic surgery, with a primary focus on knee biomechanics and surgical precision. His work critically examines how robotic-assisted technologies can transform knee arthroplasty and rehabilitation, addressing both the promise and the reproducibility of these advanced systems. His most impactful contribution is the comprehensive review "Robotics in orthopaedic surgery: why, what and how?" (2021, 60 citations), which serves as a foundational text for understanding the rationale and implementation of surgical robots. Innocenti has also produced pivotal long-term outcome data, such as the 10-year follow-up study on robotic-assisted partial knee surgery (2025, 7 citations), providing rare evidence of durability. His research extends to critical evaluations of surgical techniques, including the restoration of the prearthritic joint line and its effect on natural knee kinematics, as well as the development of consensus guidelines for tibial rotational alignment through the European Knee Society. By combining biomechanical measurements—such as Tekscan interfacial contact analysis—with clinical outcomes, Innocenti bridges engineering precision and patient function, making him a key figure in the evidence-based evolution of robotic orthopaedics.
