MAKO Robotic Knee Replacement
MAKO SmartRobotics System
Joint replacement surgery has advanced significantly from conventional manual methods. At Zydus Hospital, our MAKO robotic system ushers in a new era of precision surgery, including MAKO robotic knee replacement surgery, MAKO robotic partial knee replacement surgeryand MAKO robotic hip replacement. This single robotic platform supports multiple joint replacement procedures, including knee and hip replacement surgeries, through adaptable planning and tools. By combining CT-based planning, real-time mapping, and a surgeon-guided MAKO robotic arm, this technology enables tailored procedures and improved recovery outcomes.
How Does the MAKO Robot Work?
The MAKO surgical robot begins with a high-resolution CT scan to create a personalized 3D model of the patient’s joint. Surgeons then use MAKO robotic assistance through the MAKO robotic arm to carry out the plan with high precision. The system prevents unplanned movements, ensuring accurate bone preparation, optimal implant placement, and protection of surrounding tissues.
This process is consistently applied in MAKO robotic total knee replacement, MAKO robotic hip replacement, and MAKO robotic partial knee replacement, adapting to each patient’s unique anatomy.
MAKO SmartRobotics: One System, Three Precision Procedures
The MAKO SmartRobotics system is used across three advanced orthopedic procedures: total knee replacement, partial knee replacement, and total hip replacement. Each application is powered by the same robotic platform, tailored through specialized planning and tools.
1. MAKO Robotic Total Knee Replacement
Also called MAKO robotic assisted knee surgery, this technique uses the MAKO robotic arm for better outcomes. The surgeons can evaluate soft tissue balance intraoperatively and fine-tune implant positioning for better alignment. Clinical evidence shows fewer revision risks and improved long-term results
2. MAKO Robotic Total Hip Replacement
In the MAKO robotic total hip replacement, CT-based planning optimizes the alignment and helps the surgeons planning better. The robotic arm guides reaming and implant placement precisely, preserving bone and reducing surgical variability. This leads to shorter hospital stays and improved hip function compared to traditional approaches.
3. MAKO Robotic Partial Knee Replacement
Designed for patients with a disease limited to a partial damage, the MAKO robotic partial knee replacement preserves healthy bone and ligaments. Using advanced technology, the surgeon can make accurate bone cuts and achieve natural joint movement with faster recovery.
Key Features of Mako Smartrobotics
- Planning: A 3D model of your knee is created using CT or MRI scans. This helps the surgeon plan the exact size, placement, and alignment of the implant.
- Precision: The robot does not operate independently; the surgeon controls it. The robot provides real-time feedback and helps ensure accuracy and consistency.
- Control: The robot does not operate independently; the surgeon controls it. The robot provides real-time feedback and helps ensure accuracy and consistency.
Benefits of MAKO Robotic Surgery
The benefits of MAKO Smartrobotic assistance include:
- Personalized approach: CT-based 3D mapping ensures implants are accurately sized, aligned, and positioned for each patient’s anatomy.
- With the support of the MAKO robotic arm, infrared sensors, and an integrated MAKO robot camera, surgeons achieve high intraoperative accuracy and safety.
- Minimally invasive technique: Smaller incisions, less tissue disruption, reduced blood loss, and faster rehabilitation.
- Improved outcomes: Better implant alignment, less wear, and lower risk of revision surgery.
- High patient satisfaction: Patients report better function, faster return to daily activities, and shorter hospital stays.
Clinical Excellence and Patient Guidance
The MAKO robotic arm assisted technology offers quantifiable improvements compared to manual surgery, with peer-reviewed studies backing each benefit.
During consultation, our orthopedic specialists will review your candidacy for:
MAKO robotic knee replacement (total or partial):
Based on your joint condition, doctors will recommend the most suitable knee procedure using MAKO’s precision tools.
MAKO robotic hip replacement:
Ideal for patients with hip degeneration, this approach ensures accurate implant placement and faster recovery.
Our orthopedic specialists will discuss the most suitable procedure for you, whether a MAKO robotic total knee replacement, partial knee replacement, or hip replacement, based on your individual condition.
