This study compares traditional knee arthroplasty and minimally invasive knee arthroplasty
(MIKA) techniques, aiming to assess differences in surgical time, recovery period, pain levels,
and complication rates. Minimally invasive techniques have been developed to reduce the
trauma associated with open knee replacement surgeries. These approaches typically utilize
smaller incisions and specialized instruments, intending to minimize postoperative pain and
accelerate recovery. The findings may impact clinical practice by offering insights into the
advantages and potential drawbacks of MIKA, which could lead to improved patient outcomes,
such as reduced pain, faster recovery, and enhanced satisfaction.
