A New Option - Robotic Surgery

With advancement of technology, programming and hardware development, robots are no longer limited to the realm of science fiction. Robotics has widespread application in manufacturing and is starting to make its presence felt in daily life. The precision of movement offered by robotics is invaluable in surgery and introduction of robotic assisted surgical technique is an exciting development in various fields of urology, general surgery and now orthopedic surgery.

Robotic Knee Surgery is one such recent, innovative application of robotics based technique.

What makes robotic knee surgery different from the usual approach? One form of robotic knee surgery is robotic knee replacement used to treat knee arthritis. It makes use of the scans of the patient's knee to accurately differentiate between the healthy and diseased parts of the knee. It then plans the incisions (cuts) that need to be made and assists the surgeons in making these cuts accurately.

Potential benefits of Robotic knee surgery include:

·         Faster recovery from surgery and shorter hospital stay after robotic knee surgery

·         Less pain after robotic knee surgery

·         Better outcome because of accurate positioning of the new replacement knee.

Robotic Knee Surgery are performed by experienced orthopaedic surgeons who have undergone specialized training. They are best placed to advise patients on the suitability of robotic knee surgery for their conditions.

With the availability of specialised equipment and trained doctors, Robotic Knee Surgery is an option worth considering.
