Robotic Knee Surgical System: How Does It Work?

Nowadays, robotics-assisted navigation technology is in trend for the joint pain treatment of patients troubled by early to mid-stage knee arthritis. This technology is better known as the robotics knee surgical system. Patients who get treatment of knee surgery by the robotic surgical system go through less pain and less after surgery swelling than conventional joint replacement methods.

Robotic surgery is a highly reliable and advanced procedure for orthopaedic surgeons to perform joint replacements. This system complies with the skills of surgeons to work precisely for positioning knee implants and delivers consistently accurate results. Meanwhile, the surgeon collects anatomical data for building a 3D model of the patient’s knee by using a Robotic system. Later, the surgeon utilizes this information for placing implants and balancing knee ligaments for a well balanced and optimal alignment.

Working of Robotic Knee Surgical System

The Robotic Surgical System integrates handheld robotics with CT-free registration and planning processes for a specific patient. Software applications TKA, UKA, and PFJ guide the surgeon for making implant plans that balance soft-tissue and localize components, as well as use the handheld instrumentation to aid the surgeon for implantation.

Partial Knee Replacement By Robotics Knee Surgical System

The surgical treatment that removes only the damaged portion of the knee, sparing your ligaments and supporting tissue to work for knee stability, is called partial knee replacement. By such, prosthetic implant works smoothly for knee joint movement with already intact bone and healthy cartilage. The robotic system does not require a preoperative CT scan. Instead, it helps your surgeon to create a 3D representation of your knee profile with its unique shape. This 3D representation is useful for your surgeon to determine the right size and correct position of implant that is critical for knee stability and alignment.

Then, Next, the robotic assistance is preferred by your surgeon for removing only damaged parts of your bone to prepare the site for prosthesis before placement and adjustment of your partial knee implant. This system doesn’t take the place of the orthopaedic surgeon. Indeed, it adds an extra layer of planning in your knee replacement procedure to assist your surgeon for better outcomes.

Total Knee Replacement By Robotic Knee Surgical System

Total knee replacement involves the replacement of the entire knee joint with a prosthetic implant suitable to replicate the motion, shape, and stability for your natural knee. After surgery, the patient experiences a dramatic reduction in pain and better functioning of the knee. Here, robotic surgery works similarly like the partial knee procedure, as a 3D representation of your knee’s unique anatomy aids your surgeon for total knee replacement.

This procedure also does not require a CT scan. Further, information assists your surgeon in finding out the accurate size and position of the implant. Then a suitable surgery plan according to the anatomy of your knee is undertaken to perform surgery.
Implantation of prosthetic knee implants goes on by making sure it is balanced and moves correctly, after removing cutting guides. System for total knee replacement provides an extra layer of accuracy and planning though it does not replace your orthopaedic doctor. This extra layer of data collection and planning ensures that your knee procedure is going the same as your surgeon wants, and positioning of the implant is accurate to render better long term outcomes.

What Compliments Working Process Of Robotics Knee Surgical System?

• Ensures resurfacing of bone by advanced instruments that are perfect to suit the surgeon’s defined plan for knee surgery.
• Ensures consistent and accurate results by computer assistance.
• Ensures surgery making smaller incisions by a Robotics-assisted handpiece.
• Ensures 100% precision by artificial intelligence.
• Ensures to fix your knee almost close to your original knee.
