About

Dr. Harold I. Salmons is an emerging leader in orthopaedic surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted knee arthroplasty and revision joint reconstruction. His work addresses one of the most technically demanding challenges in the field: the conversion of failed unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In his highly cited 2025 surgical technique review, Dr. Salmons systematically outlines how robotic-assisted TKA can overcome the asymmetric bone loss and alignment complexities inherent in these revision cases, providing surgeons with a reproducible, data-driven framework for preoperative planning and intraoperative execution. This contribution is particularly impactful as the volume of primary UKA procedures rises, making his guidance essential for improving outcomes in a growing patient population. While his career is still in its early stages, his work has already garnered attention for its practical, evidence-based approach to a niche yet critical procedure. Dr. Salmons’ research bridges the gap between advanced robotic technology and real-world surgical challenges, positioning him as a key voice in the future of precision joint replacement.
