The application of the CORI imageless robotic systems in revision TKA remains underexplored. This study evaluates the utility of the imageless robotic system in three complex revision scenarios: unicompartmental knee arthroplasty conversion, one‐stage revision, and second‐stage revision.  \nMethods: A prospective case series of patients undergoing revision ofTKA was conducted. Intraoperative surface mapping and soft tissue tension guided surgical planning. Standardised perioperative protocols and rehabilitation were applied.  \nResults: All patients demonstrated improved outcomes, with Knee Society Scores ranging from 90 to 95 and functional scores from 50 to 80 within two to six months postoperatively. Enhanced alignment and gap balancing were consistently achieved. Discussion: The imageless system facilitated precise intraoperative assessment and standardised techniques in revision TKA, supporting its potential to improve clinical outcomes. Further studies are warranted to establish long‐term benefits.  \n1 | Introduction  \nRevision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common procedure with various causes including infection, mechanical complications, and dislocation [1] . The approach to management and treatment of revision total knee arthroplasty varies according to the failure mechanism with the focus on minimising subsequent complications [2] .  \nAnother cause for revision TKA is unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) conversion. It is common for UKA knees to fail and thus require conversion to total knee arthroplasty  \n(TKA) due to causes such as disease progression, component loosening or sinking, and unexplained pain [3–5] . Challenges of UKA conversion include varied UKA implants and alignments, intra‐articular scarring, implant and cement removal, and loss of bony landmarks post‐UKA [6, 7] . Despite the frequent need for conversion, there is yet to be a widely accepted consensus on the surgical techniques [8] .  \nImageless robotic systems may provide a platform for standardised techniques as they create an accurate intraoperative virtual 3D model via surface mapping and are able to obtain the operative soft tissue tension by applying varus and valgus stress  \n\n| Joshua Yeuk Shun Tran and Rex Wang‐Fung Mak are co‐first authors. |\n| --- |\n| This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.\u003Cbr>© 2026 The Author(s) .
