About

Xinzhe Lu is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work is transforming joint replacement surgery through the development and validation of robotic-assisted technologies. His primary research focuses on the accuracy, safety, and clinical outcomes of robotic-arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) and total hip arthroplasty (RA-THA). Lu’s most significant contributions include demonstrating that a novel, whole-process robotic arm can achieve superior bone resection, implant positioning, and limb alignment compared to manual techniques. His prospective studies, including a multicentre randomized clinical trial with 148 patients, have shown that robotic assistance significantly improves radiographic outcomes and reduces complications, particularly on the femoral side. Notably, his work has also proven that RA-THA outperforms manual surgery in obese and overweight patients, a critical finding given rising obesity rates. With his top-cited paper accumulating 51 citations, Lu’s research provides robust evidence for the integration of robotics into standard arthroplasty practice, offering patients greater precision and potentially longer-lasting implants. His cadaveric and clinical trials have established a new benchmark for surgical accuracy in orthopaedics.
