Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery

Knee replacement, also called knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to resurface a knee damaged by arthritis. Metal and plastic parts are used to cap the ends of the bones that form the knee joint, along with the kneecap. This surgery may be considered for someone who has severe arthritis or severe knee damage. If the patient quality of life is deteriorated due to pain or when other conservative measures failed. Various types of arthritis may affect the knee joint. Osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease that affects mostly middle-aged and older adults, may cause the breakdown of joint cartilage and adjacent bone in the knees. Rheumatoid arthritis, which causes inflammation of the synovial membrane and results in excessive synovial fluid, can lead to pain and stiffness. Traumatic arthritis, arthritis due to injury, may cause damage to the cartilage of the knee. COMBINATION OF SURGEONS EXPERTISE AND ROBOT'S PRECISION This surgery is not totally dependent either on the surgeon or on the robotically-assisted handpiece. It offers the benefits of a mix of a surgeon’s expertise and a robot’s precision which makes it more effective and beneficial for the patients. This surgery has done wonders for the patients who had given up and had lost hope to walk freely without any pain or any other problem in their knees. The awareness of this technique is very high, which has created realization among the people about the importance of such treatment and how it is helping the community to live a life full of freedom.
