      abstract = {Abstract- Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease that significantly affects quality of life, especially among obese and morbidly obese individuals. The mini-subvastus approach (SA) and robotic-assisted TKA (RA-TKA) are emerging techniques that may address these challenges. This study evaluates the clinical and radiological outcomes of cruciate- retaining (CR) RA-TKA using the mini-subvastus approach. This was a single-centertered and observational study that included 100 consecutive patients who underwent TKA using the Cuvis Joint? autonomous robotic system from January 2023 to October 2024. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants were included in the study. The primary outcome measure are complications associated with active RA-TKA. The incidence of neurovascular injury, mechanism disruption, and collateral ligament and other soft tissue injuries, and pin-related injury including intra- operative fractures etc were studied and the safety features in the autonomous robotic system were analyzed. The mini-subvastus approach in RA-TKA offers several advantages, including reduced postoperative pain, faster recovery, and improved quadriceps strength, even in obese patients. The use of robotic assistance ensures accurate component positioning and alignment, mitigating the challenges typically associated with obese patients undergoing TKA},
