About
Dr. Seng Jin Yeo is a pioneering orthopaedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty, with a particular focus on total knee and hip replacements. His landmark 2013 prospective randomized study, cited over 260 times, demonstrated that robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) significantly improves the accuracy of joint line restoration and mechanical axis alignment compared to conventional techniques. This foundational work established robotic assistance as a tool for enhancing surgical precision. Dr. Yeo has since advanced the field by evaluating the cost-effectiveness of robotic TKA through Markov decision analysis, showing long-term economic benefits, and by comparing patient satisfaction between functionally aligned robotic TKA and traditional mechanically aligned approaches. His research also explores enhanced recovery protocols, including day-surgery models for robotic-arm assisted TKA, which improve patient outcomes and hospital efficiency. With recent publications examining the role of robotic technology in primary total hip arthroplasty, Dr. Yeo continues to shape evidence-based practice, bridging surgical innovation with real-world clinical and economic outcomes.
