Robotic Knee and Hip Replacement Surgery
Arthritis in your joints can be extremely uncomfortable and can significantly affect your quality of life. When the knee or hip becomes arthritic, the cartilage wears away, causing the bones to rub against one another. This can lead to pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of motion.
Our doctors use state-of-the-art technology to provide advanced options for patients undergoing joint replacement surgery.
Our OrthoMichigan surgeons use the Zimmer Biomet ROSA® Knee System for knee replacement surgery, as well as the Mako™ robotic-arm assisted technology for knee and hip replacement procedures. These technologies are designed to help our surgeons personalize each procedure based on the individual patient’s anatomy and needs.
What are the advantages of robotic-assisted knee and hip replacement?
Mako™ robotic-arm assisted technology creates a patient-specific 3-D model that allows our surgeons to carefully plan your joint replacement before surgery. During the procedure, Mako provides real-time information and assists the surgeon with precise bone preparation and implant positioning.
For knee replacement patients, we also use the ROSA® Knee System, which combines robotic technology with advanced knee implants to help our surgeons personalize each procedure. ROSA® uses information collected before and during surgery to assist with surgical planning, bone preparation, and implant positioning.
Both Mako™ and ROSA® are designed to support greater precision and a personalized approach to joint replacement. Our surgeons use these advanced technologies alongside their experience and expertise to help achieve accurate implant positioning and provide patients with the best possible opportunity for a successful recovery and long-term results.
