About

Yohei Naito is a leading researcher in orthopedic surgery, specializing in robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA). His work focuses on advancing surgical precision and improving patient outcomes through comparative analyses of robotic systems and conventional techniques. Naito’s major contributions include demonstrating the accuracy of component placement and early clinical outcomes using imageless hand-held robotic systems like NAVIO versus radiography-based systems like ROSA, as highlighted in his 2024 study (25 citations). He has also pioneered the use of two- and three-dimensional measurements to evaluate cutting errors and component alignment post-TKA, with his 2022 paper (14 citations) establishing a benchmark for robotic system assessment. His 2023 study (11 citations) further validated the superiority of robotic assistance over conventional methods in achieving optimal component positioning and hip-knee-ankle angle correction. With over 50 cumulative citations, Naito’s work is instrumental in shaping evidence-based practices for robotic TKA, offering surgeons and researchers critical insights into system selection and surgical accuracy. His meticulous evaluations underscore his role as a key contributor to the evolution of minimally invasive, technology-driven orthopedic care.
