About

Morteza Meftah is an orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of joint replacement surgery and emerging intraoperative technologies. His research focuses primarily on total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA), with a particular emphasis on evaluating the clinical value of computer-assisted navigation and robotic-assisted surgical systems in improving patient outcomes. Meftah's most influential contribution — cited 39 times — critically examined whether intraoperative technology yields superior outcomes in TKA, helping to ground an increasingly enthusiastic field in rigorous evidence. Subsequent work challenged assumptions about robotic surgery's ability to reduce postoperative pain (15 citations), while his studies on THA demonstrated that robotic arm-assisted approaches can yield reliable radiographic and clinical results at two-year follow-up. His 2024 findings linking robotic assistance and fluoroscopic guidance to fewer dislocations after THA represent a meaningful clinical advance. More recently, Meftah has expanded into artificial intelligence applications, exploring AI-driven prediction of coronal alignment in robotic TKA — signaling a forward-looking research trajectory. Across his portfolio, Meftah has consistently pursued the critical question of whether technological innovation translates into genuinely meaningful patient benefit, making his work essential reading for surgeons and health technology researchers alike.
