About

Dr. Koichi Sairyo is a leading orthopedic surgeon whose research focuses on the precision and outcomes of robotic-assisted joint arthroplasty, particularly in total hip and knee replacements. His major contributions center on demonstrating how robotic systems enhance surgical accuracy, especially in complex cases. Notably, his 2023 study on robotic arm-assisted total hip arthroplasty in patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip showed significant improvements in cup placement precision, a critical factor for long-term implant success. In a comparative study from the same year, he provided compelling evidence that robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty achieves superior coronal plane alignment over traditional navigation-assisted methods. His work has garnered attention, with his top papers accumulating 16 and 13 citations respectively. Most recently, Dr. Sairyo authored a comprehensive 2025 systematic review of surgical assist robotic systems available in Japan, including MAKO, ROSA, NAVIO/CORI, and VELY, offering crucial insights into their accuracy, learning curves, and clinical outcomes. Through this body of work, Dr. Sairyo is helping to define the role of robotics in modern orthopedics, advancing the field toward more reproducible, patient-specific surgical care.
