What is Robotic Knee Surgery?

The knee is the body’s largest and strongest joint. Arthritic knee pain can be caused by joint inflammation. Arthritis is the progressive joint inflammation that can make it difficult to perform daily tasks. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disorder that destroys joint cartilage and bone, which can lead to knee arthritis.

Knee replacements are already one of the safest and most successful surgeries, with minimal risks of complications and long-lasting quality-of-life enhancements. Nevertheless, robotic-assisted knee replacements may improve patient outcomes and satisfaction further.

A robotic knee replacement is comparable to the conventional procedure. Your knee’s damaged tissue is removed and replaced with an artificial joint by your surgeon. The distinction is that it is performed with the aid of a robotic arm or handheld robotic device. (depending on the robotic system used for your surgery).

When referring to “robotic” knee replacements, we are not referring to the type of artificial joint that is implanted, but rather to the manner in which the procedure is performed. In other words, after surgery you will not have a robotic knee joint.
Robotic knee replacement, on the other hand, is a procedure that employs robotic technology to improve the accuracy and precision of knee replacement. At TRIA, we utilize the robotic surgical assistant ROSA® Knee System.And, if you’re wondering if the robot performs the surgery on its own, the answer is no.
The robot does not perform the surgical procedure on its own.
The robot helps us to perform the surgery; it does not perform the surgery on its own.

Greater precision is possible with robotic-assisted procedures, which can also result in shorter recovery times and improved outcomes. In more complex cases, a robotic-assisted knee replacement provides a better balance in the soft tissues surrounding the knee and a more accurate alignment of the joint.
Preparation for robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery is identical to preparation for conventional knee replacement surgery.

Advantages of Robotic Knee Surgery
-A less invasive option for knee replacement surgery
-A more ideal implant fit
-The recuperation period following a robotic knee replacement may be shorter.
-Greater patient contentment
