This journal focuses on the surgical procedures and outcomes of joint replacement surgeries, primarily total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and total hip arthroplasty (THA). Research investigates surgical techniques, including manual, robotic-assisted, and patient-specific alignment methods, as well as implant positioning and biomechanics. The journal also covers patient factors such as body mass index, comorbidities like diabetes and fibromyalgia, and their impact on surgical outcomes. Additionally, it addresses complications like periprosthetic joint infection and dislocation, and explores pain management strategies and functional recovery following these procedures.
