Abstract: Objective  To evaluate the efficacy of robot-assisted versus free-hand screw placement in the treatment of femoral neck fractures. Methods  A retrospective analysis was conducted on 40 patients with femoral neck fractures treated at the First Hospital of Jilin University from January 2018 to June 2023. Based on the surgical methods, the patients were divided into two groups: the robot group (21 cases) and the free-hand group (19 cases). Intraoperative and postoperative indicators were compared between the two groups. Results  The robot group showed superiority over the free-hand group in terms of operation time, number of intraoperative fluoroscopies, number of intraoperative guide pin adjustments, and Harris scores at 1 year postoperatively (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of fracture healing time (P > 0.05). Conclusions  The TiRobot assists in the treatment of femoral neck fractures with significant advantages such as precision, efficiency, and intelligence. Robot-assisted surgery can shorten the operation time and reduce the possibility of surgery-related secondary injuries, making it worthy of further promotion and application.
