Abstract

With the arrival of robotic surgery in knee surgery in Brazil in 2021, new questions are asked so that we can understand how this new technology can be assimilated in the context of health and the reality of the country. The new trends in health financing related to the private sector raises the question of how new procedures can be incorporated seeking a balance between technological advancement and accessibility based on costs and outcomes related to the quality of life of patients.
