Robotic Joint Replacement

Stryker Mako robotic arm positioned in theatre with the intra-operative navigation display

Next-generation robotic arm stereotactic guidance combined with high-resolution pre-operative 3D-CT modeling. Surgeon-controlled haptic boundaries prevent inadvertent soft-tissue damage, keeping femoral and tibial component positioning within 0.5 mm and 0.5 degrees of planned alignment.

Who it is for

  • • Primary hip or knee replacement where sub-millimeter accuracy is desired
  • • Partial knee replacement requiring precise compartment isolation
  • • Complex constitutional deformity in active patients

Surgical approach

  • • Low-dose volumetric CT reconstructed into a 3D bone model
  • • Intra-operative optical tracking and haptic resection envelope
  • • No obligatory intramedullary canal violation for alignment rods
  • • Dynamic ligament assessment across the arc of motion

Recovery

  • • Often 2–4 weeks to independent daily gait with reduced narcotic demand
  • • Same enhanced-recovery pathway as conventional arthroplasty
  • • Imaging and clinic review to confirm planned alignment
