Abstract
≫We had these beautiful implants that were made to fit the individual extremely accurately. We had also broaches that were the same sizes as the implant… but then we had to take a 2 1/2 lb mallet and ram it down the bone in order to cut inside of the bone out. The bone sometimes were cracking and the implants were sitting up too high or down too low… We found that other surgeons around the country were having the same problems.≫ - Howard A. Paul ≫.. Luckily robots can do all this betters.≪ - Russel H. Taylor
