Abstract
Recent developments in robotic technologies in the field of orthopaedic surgery have largely been focused on higher volume arthroplasty procedures, with a paucity of attention paid to robotic potential for foot and ankle surgery. The aim of this paper is to summarize past and present developments foot and ankle robotics and describe outcomes associated with these interventions, with specific emphasis on the following topics: translational and preclinical utilization of robotics, deep learning and artificial intelligence modeling in foot and ankle, current applications for robotics in foot and ankle surgery, and therapeutic and orthotic-related utilizations of robotics related to the foot and ankle. Herein, we describe numerous recent robotic advancements across foot and ankle surgery, geared towards optimizing intra-operative performance, improving detection of foot and ankle pathology, understanding ankle kinematics, and rehabilitating post-surgically. Future research should work to incorporate robotics specifically into surgical procedures as other specialties within orthopaedics have done, and to further individualize machinery to patients, with the ultimate goal to improve perioperative and post-operative outcomes.
