Summary
This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of an intelligent robotic system for the closed reduction of extra-articular supracondylar femoral fractures (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/Orthopaedic Trauma Association AO/OTA 33-A). Traditional manual reduction for supracondylar femoral fractures is often challenging due to strong muscle pull, heavily relying on the surgeon's experience and frequently requiring repeated fluoroscopy. This clinical trial compares robot-assisted closed reduction against traditional surgeon-led reduction methods. The primary goal is to determine if the robotic system improves the precision of bone alignment (excellent and good reduction rate) and functional recovery while reducing surgical radiation exposure.
