About
Davide De Marco is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through comparative effectiveness and surgical innovation. His most-cited contribution, a 2020 systematic review examining robotic-assisted versus conventional manual TKA, has garnered 95 citations and fundamentally shaped the field’s understanding of postoperative outcomes. De Marco’s research directly addresses the persistent challenge of patient dissatisfaction—affecting up to 20% of TKA recipients—by rigorously evaluating whether robotic technology can improve functional results and quality of life. His systematic synthesis of comparative studies provides evidence-based guidance for surgeons adopting robotic platforms, highlighting both benefits and limitations. Beyond this landmark review, De Marco’s broader portfolio explores surgical techniques, implant design, and patient-reported outcomes, consistently aiming to refine TKA’s success rate. His work has influenced clinical decision-making and sparked further investigations into precision arthroplasty. For students and researchers, De Marco exemplifies how targeted systematic reviews can bridge technological promise and real-world surgical practice, making him a pivotal voice in modern orthopedic research.
