Robotic Total Knee Replacement

Robotic Total Knee Replacement

Traditional knee replacement surgery involves the manual alignment of the knee joint components, which requires the surgeon to rely on their skills and experience to achieve the best possible outcome. Robotic TKR takes this a step further by integrating advanced robotics and computer-assisted technology to enhance precision.

How Robotic TKR Works

• Preoperative Planning: The process begins with detailed imaging and 3D modeling of the patient’s knee. This data allows the surgical team to create a customized plan tailored to the patient’s anatomy.
• Robotic Assistance: During the surgery, the robotic system assists the surgeon in placing the knee components with a high degree of accuracy. The robot’s real-time feedback and adjustments ensure that the alignment is precise.
• Enhanced Accuracy: The robotic system allows for smaller incisions and precise placement of the implants, which can lead to better functional outcomes and faster recovery.

Benefits of Robotic TKR

Robotic TKR offers several advantages over traditional methods, including:

• Increased Precision: The robotic system provides unparalleled accuracy in implant placement, which can significantly improve the alignment and balance of the knee joint.
• Reduced Recovery Time: Patients often experience less pain and a quicker recovery due to the minimally invasive nature of the surgery and the precise placement of the implants.
• Improved Outcomes: Enhanced alignment and stability contribute to better long-term outcomes, including reduced wear and tear on the implants.
