Kinematically aligned robotic total knee arthroplasty for post-traumatic femoral recurvatum with hardware retention: a case report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We describe a 58-year-old male with severe posttraumatic osteoarthritis and distal femoral recurvatum deformity following adolescent fracture fixation. Preoperative imaging demonstrated a healed malunion stabilized by a lateral locking plate and tricompartmental osteoarthritis with 12° recurvatum. A single-stage robotic-assisted kinematically aligned total knee arthroplasty was performed using cementless cruciate-retaining components while retaining the femoral plate. Careful preoperative planning and intraoperative adjustment of bone resections enabled restoration of joint line orientation, balanced soft tissues, and stable press-fit fixation without stems or osteotomy. At two-year follow-up, the patient reported excellent function and pain-free mobility, with outcome scores including KOOS JR 91.98, Oxford Knee Score 47, and Forgotten Joint Score 100. This case highlights the feasibility of robotic-assisted, hardware-retaining, cementless TKA in the setting of complex extra-articular deformity, avoiding staged hardware removal or constrained implants while achieving durable clinical outcomes.
