About

Su Chan Lee is an orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through robotic-assisted surgical techniques. His research has made significant contributions to improving surgical precision, component positioning, and patient safety in knee replacement surgery. Lee's most influential study, examining mechanical alignment and component accuracy in robotic-assisted versus conventional TKA, has garnered 44 citations, establishing him as a credible voice in the growing field of orthopedic robotics. A particularly notable thread throughout his work is his focus on pin tracker placement during robotic-assisted TKA — a technical concern with real clinical consequences. His longitudinal research demonstrating that distal femoral pin placement in the medial sagittal plane prevents fracture complications has been cited across multiple follow-up studies, reflecting its practical impact on surgical practice. Lee has also expanded the application of robotic TKA to complex cases, including patients with retained hardware, failed high tibial osteotomy, and post-traumatic deformities, demonstrating the versatility and precision advantages of robotic systems in technically demanding scenarios. His body of work collectively underscores a commitment to refining surgical technique and improving outcomes for patients with challenging knee pathology.
