This unique robotic system represents a breakthrough in knee replacement surgery, and is the only one that allows surgeons to perform total hip replacement. Based on the patient’s physical condition, anatomy and diagnosis, a unique treatment plan is curated. With guidance from an orthopaedic surgeon, the robotic arm is used to remove bone and cartilage and place the implant
This unique robotic system represents a breakthrough in knee replacement surgery, and is the only one that allows surgeons to perform total hip replacement. Based on the patient’s physical condition, anatomy and diagnosis, a unique treatment plan is curated. With guidance from an orthopaedic surgeon, the robotic arm is used to remove bone and cartilage and place the implant. A 3D virtual model of the patient’s knee helps the surgeon in guiding the robot to achieving a high level of precision. Some notable advantages of the MAKO robotic system include:
-
Based on the patient’s CT scan report, a 3D pre-operative plan is generated.
-
Allows the surgeon to accurately carry out the surgical process.
-
Helps protect surrounding soft tissue from damage.
-
Provides all procedure-specific data in real-time
-
Supports successful long-term outcomes.
-
Minimally invasive nature of the procedure reduces post-operative pain.
-
Significantly reduces blood loss and speeds up recovery.
