Robotic Hip and Knee Replacement Surgery
The advantages of Robotic Navigation for Knee Replacement surgery are significant. Using
Computer or Robotic Navigation offers the following functional benefits:
- Better planning and modelling of your knee’s unique structure that enables a higher level of joint alignment accuracy.
- A more precise fit, optimises both a greater range of motion and improved stability, and
- The custom fit allows your new implant to last longer with a reduced risk of dislocation.
- Less blood loss
- Faster recovery
- Shorter post op rehabilitation, and
- Less scarring
Further, during the procedure the patient has:
-
Robotic Hip Replacement
Robotic hip surgery is an advancement to a traditional hip surgery that uses a robotic system to perform the surgery. The robotic system functions as an extension of the surgeon's hands and eyes.
-
Robotic Knee Replacement
MAKOplasty® is a novel surgical procedure performed to relieve pain caused by joint degeneration due to osteoarthritis. It is performed using robotic-arm technology that allows the surgeon to precisely perform the surgery through a smaller incision as compared to traditional surgery.
