Mohamad Tarabolsi

About

Mohamad Tarabolsi is a pioneering researcher in the field of robotic-assisted orthopedic surgery, with a primary focus on total hip arthroplasty. His most significant contribution is the landmark study on the Robodoc surgical assistant system, which evaluated clinical outcomes and complications across 97 procedures. This work, cited 166 times, provided critical early evidence on the safety and efficacy of robotic systems in hip replacement, demonstrating that computer-assisted milling could achieve precise implant placement while identifying key challenges such as learning curves and intraoperative complications. Tarabolsi also investigated non-invasive patient fixation methods for robotic hip surgery, exploring infrared tracking systems to minimize invasive stabilization. His research has been instrumental in advancing the integration of robotics into orthopedics, addressing both technical feasibility and clinical practicality. By documenting real-world outcomes and proposing solutions for patient positioning, Tarabolsi has helped shape the evolution of robotic arthroplasty, making him a notable figure in the transition from traditional to computer-guided surgical techniques.
