The Power of Precision: Robotic Joint Replacement

On

Using robotic systems, joint replacement surgeons can perform procedures with greater accuracy, tailoring the surgery to each patient’s unique anatomy for improved outcomes for patients. Our experts at Kansas Joint & Spine Specialists have more on this innovative approach.

Robotic-assisted joint replacement is suitable for patients with conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or joint injuries requiring replacement of the hip, knee, or other joints.

By incorporating advanced robotic technology, including Mako SmartRobotics, Mazor X, and Rosa® Knee, our specialists can ensure greater precision, personalization, and improved long-term results. These systems help our surgeons optimize implant positioning and alignment, reducing complications and enhancing recovery.

Patients undergoing robotic-assisted joint replacement often report a smoother recovery process. Benefits of robotic-assisted joint replacement include:

  • Enhanced precision: Surgeons can operate with improved accuracy, minimizing the risk of an implant not being aligned properly.
  • Personalized planning: Surgeons can visualize the joint in detail before making any incisions by using 3D imaging. This leads to a more customized and effective procedure.
  • Minimized soft-tissue damage: Robotic guidance helps preserve surrounding muscles, ligaments, and soft tissues for less pain, reduced swelling, and faster recovery times.
  • Improved implant longevity: Proper placement and alignment of implants can reduce wear and tear, potentially extending the life of the joint replacement.
  • Reduced risk of complications: The precision of robotic-assisted surgery decreases the likelihood of complications, such as improper implant positioning, which can lead to discomfort or the need for revision surgery.

If joint pain is holding you back, robotic-assisted joint replacement could be the solution you’ve been waiting for.
