About
M. Poniatowska is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through comparative clinical trials of robotic-assisted and manual surgical techniques. Their major contribution lies in rigorously evaluating emerging technologies—specifically the NAVIO and CORI imageless robotic systems—against traditional methods. In their landmark 2023 randomized controlled trial, cited 58 times, Poniatowska demonstrated that both robotic-assisted and manual TKA accurately restore femoral rotational alignment and yield comparable, satisfactory clinical outcomes. This finding is pivotal for surgeons weighing the cost and complexity of robotic systems against proven manual approaches. Beyond this core study, Poniatowska’s research portfolio consistently addresses patient-reported outcomes and surgical precision, helping to shape evidence-based guidelines in joint replacement. Their work is widely referenced by clinicians and biomedical engineers seeking to optimize TKA protocols. By providing high-quality, comparative data, Poniatowska has become a trusted voice in the ongoing debate over the value of robotic assistance in orthopedics, influencing both surgical practice and future device development.
