Overview
Knee pain caused by arthritis, injury, or joint degeneration can significantly limit one’s daily activities. When non-surgical treatments like medication or physiotherapy no longer provide relief, knee replacement surgery becomes the most effective solution. In recent years, robotic knee replacement surgery has revolutionized orthopaedic care by offering higher precision, faster recovery, and long-lasting results.
At Manav Hospital, patients have access to advanced robotic-assisted knee replacement performed by experienced orthopaedic surgeons like Dr. Sharad Gupta. Supported by modern infrastructure and the latest robotic technology, the hospital ensures world-class outcomes for patients suffering from chronic knee pain.
What is Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery?
Robotic knee replacement is a technologically advanced procedure where a robotic system assists the surgeon in planning and performing the surgery with unparalleled accuracy. Unlike traditional methods that rely solely on manual measurements, robotic systems use real-time 3D imaging and computer navigation to guide the surgeon throughout the operation.
This approach helps create a personalized surgical plan, ensuring that the knee implant fits perfectly to the patient’s unique anatomy. The robotic arm doesn’t perform the surgery independently; rather, it enhances the surgeon’s precision, ensuring better alignment, minimal tissue damage, and improved recovery outcomes.
How Robotic Surgery Differs from Traditional Knee Replacement
In traditional knee replacement, surgeons rely on manual tools and X-rays to align and fit the implants. While effective, it can sometimes lead to small alignment errors that may affect long-term results.
In robotic-assisted knee replacement, surgeons can visualize the joint in 3D, plan the surgery digitally, and execute it with sub-millimeter precision. The robot ensures balanced ligament tension, accurate bone cuts, and optimal implant positioning, resulting in a more natural and long-lasting joint function.
Key Benefits of Choosing Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery
Here are the top advantages of robotic-assisted knee replacement available at Manav Hospital, Ghaziabad:
1. Unmatched Surgical Precision
The robotic system provides detailed 3D visualization and mapping of the knee joint, allowing surgeons like Dr. Sharad Gupta to plan the implant positioning before making any cuts. This precision minimizes errors and ensures a perfect fit for the prosthetic joint.
2. Personalized Treatment Plan
Every patient’s knee anatomy is unique. Robotic technology helps create a customized surgical plan based on the patient’s bone structure, ligament condition, and range of motion, leading to better joint alignment and natural movement post-surgery.
3. Minimal Tissue Damage
Traditional surgery may involve more extensive soft tissue dissection. Robotic systems guide the surgeon to remove only the damaged tissue while preserving healthy bone and ligaments. This results in reduced pain, swelling, and faster recovery.
4. Improved Accuracy and Longevity
Proper implant placement ensures better knee function and longer implant life. With robotic surgery, the alignment and balance are nearly perfect, reducing wear and tear over time and minimizing the risk of revision surgery.
5. Faster Recovery and Early Mobility
Thanks to smaller incisions and minimal muscle disruption, patients experience less post-operative discomfort. Most patients can walk within a day and resume daily activities within a few weeks, depending on physiotherapy and overall health.
6. Reduced Risk of Complications
Precision in robotic-assisted surgery minimizes the risk of implant misalignment, infections, and long-term instability, making it a safer choice for both primary and revision knee replacements.
7. Enhanced Patient Satisfaction
With faster recovery, natural joint movement, and reduced pain, patients report higher satisfaction and quality of life compared to traditional techniques.
