Robotic Total Knee Replacement

Why Knee Replacement?

Total Knee Replacement surgery has become inevitable in advanced stages of a Knee osteoarthritis. This condition develops when the cartilage of Knee joint wears off and bones are exposed to rub against each other. This causes pain, gritting sounds (crepitus) swelling, stiffness and significant loss of function and daily activity.

Early stages of knee osteoarthritis can be managed by exercise, weight reduction, medication & injections. When pain becomes severe over a period of time, surgery is the best option. Depending upon the extent of the disease, Partial or Total Knee Replacement are offered to the patient. Partial Knee Replacement is a solution, where the disease restricted only to the Inner half of the Joint. But if Osteoarthritis progresses and is affecting all the compartments then Total Knee Replacement is the best and reliable choice.

Why Robotic total knee replacement?

The Robotic system is a recent advancement in the field of Knee replacement surgery. Every Robotic procedure has a personalized plan based on unique anatomy of a person. The system helps the surgeon to achieve precise positioning of the tools during surgery. This level of accuracy can help improve the function, feel of normalcy after surgery and longevity of the knee implant.



How does the Robotic system achieve these results?

The Robotic system has an advanced inbuilt computer program. During a Knee replacement surgery, the computer scans and relays precise information about the patient's knee joint to a robotics-assisted arm. By using this patient-specific information, the computer establishes boundaries for the robotics-assisted arm, so that the surgeon can balance the Knee joint and position the knee prosthesis components with greater precision.

What are the advantages of Robotics-assisted knee surgery?

Robotic assisted knee replacement definitely has certain inherent advantages over pure manual interventions. With the surgeon's experience combined with robotic input and precision, the chances of human error are minimized and results can be just outstanding. The advanced robotic machine at our institute lends the following benefits:

• • More accuracy and safety
• • Less pain
• • Best outcomes
