In knee replacement surgery, the arthritic portion of the knee is removed and replaced by an artificial joint that form the new surfaces of the knee joint. During Robot assisted total knee replacement, Robotic Knee Replacement Surgeon uses computed tomography (CT) scans to build a 3D model of the patient’s knee. With that virtual model as guide, the surgeon then uses the robotic arm to make accurate bone cuts and insert the knee components precisely. https://delhiarthroscopy.com/robotics-knee-replacement/

2. What is Robotic Knee Replacement?
A robotic knee replacement is similar to a traditional knee
replacement. Your surgeon removes damaged tissue in your
knee and replaces it with an artificial joint. The difference
is that it's done with assistance from a (depending o robotic
arm or handheld robotic.

3. Who is suitable for robotic knee
replacement surgery?
An orthopaedic surgeon determines suitability for the robotic knee
replacement procedure on a patient by patient basis.
As a general rule – if you are suitable for a total or partial knee joint
replacement, then you are suitable for robotic knee replacement surgery.
Despite what you may have heard or read, robotic technology is not
restricted to certain types of patient.

4. Advantages of Robotic Knee Surgery
 Lower Long-Term Costs
 Better Patient Outcomes
 Higher Patient Satisfaction

5. Is Robotic Knee Replacement
Surgery Better?
Robotic Knee Replacement surgery has been shown to deliver
better results vs. traditional knee replacement. Studies have
shown surgeries performed with robotics offer more accurate
results. The less trauma on the bone and tissue, the better the
results, and robotic assistance allows for precision that reduces
traumatic areas.
