About
Dr. Suneet Velankar is an emerging leader in the field of orthopaedic surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA). His research centers on optimizing surgical precision and patient outcomes through advanced technology, particularly in minimizing soft tissue trauma and improving implant alignment. In his landmark study of 100 cases, Dr. Velankar demonstrated that preoperative CT-based planning can significantly reduce the need for soft tissue release during robotic TKA, a contribution that has already garnered 4 citations and is shaping less invasive surgical protocols. He has also made critical strides in understanding femoral component rotation, publishing two highly related studies (totaling 5 citations) that challenge conventional alignment methods. By evaluating external rotation in functionally aligned robotic TKA, his work provides an individualized strategy for grade 4 knee arthritis, directly addressing the root cause of patient dissatisfaction. Dr. Velankar’s research is notable for its practical, data-driven approach, bridging the gap between robotic technology and real-world clinical benefit. His growing body of work positions him as a key voice in the evolution of joint replacement surgery, with implications for reduced recovery times and improved long-term function.
