About

A pioneer in orthopaedic surgery, Dr. Sumit Khurana specializes in complex joint reconstruction, with a particular focus on haemophilic arthropathy and robotic-assisted arthroplasty. His landmark work, "Robot‐assisted total knee arthroplasty in haemophilic arthropathy" (2016, 35 citations), addresses one of the most challenging patient populations in orthopaedics—those with end-stage haemophilic arthropathy. In this seminal paper, Dr. Khurana demonstrates how robotic technology can overcome the formidable obstacles of soft tissue fibrosis, flexion contractures, and poor bone quality that traditionally make total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in these patients exceptionally difficult. His research shows that robotic assistance enables surgeons to achieve precise lower limb alignment and functional range of motion despite the altered bony anatomy and severe contractures. This contribution has been widely cited as a breakthrough in managing a condition where conventional TKA often yields suboptimal results. Dr. Khurana’s work bridges the gap between advanced surgical technology and the management of rare, complex bleeding disorders, offering new hope for improved mobility and quality of life in haemophilic patients. His ongoing research continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in reconstructive orthopaedics.
