Robotic Arm Assisted system

The all new MAKO Robotic Arm Assisted system is already launched in HYGEIA hospital recently. This unique system is manufactured in USA and is extremely useful for high precision knee and hip replacement.

MAKO system can assist the trained orthopaedic surgeon to perform total hip, partial knee and total knee replacement procedures.

Mako Partial and Total Knee Replacement

Mako Robotic Arm System can be used for Partial Knee replacement which is a Knee preserving procedure. This operation is designed to relieve pain by joint degeneration due to osteoarthritis or post injury arthritis. This procedures enables the surgeon to remove and replace only the affected part of the joint and at the same time preserving healthy bone and soft tissue.

In cases of Partial and Total Knee Replacement Mako Robotic Arm Assisted Technology assists the qualified orthopaedic surgeon to position the implant based on the patients specific anatomy and demands with exceptional accuracy. Mako Robotic Arm Assisted System is not only ideal for the anatomic implant placement but furthermore for optimal ligament balancing and stability.

Mako Total Hip Replacement

Mako System can be really ideal for Total Hip Replacement for patients who suffer from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular hip necrosis and posttraumatic arthritis. Mako technology provides us a patient specific 3D model for preplanning and measurement of limb length. During the operation the surgeon can perform fine adjustments so that the final surgical result can be optimal. This system is providing not only unsurpassed accuracy but also can guarantee the implant longevity.

Mako Robotic Arm System Technology

Robotic Assisted Surgery can significantly improve the accuracy and can help us to minimize any possible error. Advanced digital imaging three dimension preplanning and intraoperative fine adjustment can guarantee an excellent surgical outcome.

The absolute robotic arm assisted formation of the implant position and the three dimensional implant placement can help the surgeon to obtain a new joint extremely well balanced and functioning with the least possible friction or stress. The importance of the mechanical stability and functionality is immense because it is related to longevity for implants.

Joint Replacement Surgery with Mako System

Mako technology can produce a three dimension model for preplanning which is based on patient anatomy. Any preoperative or intraoperative optimization is performed only for the specific knee or hip of our patient so that means that it is the ideal and absolute true custom made technique.

Before Surgery: A super fine CT Scan of your knee or hip joint is used to generate a three dimension virtual model of your unique anatomy. The virtual model is loaded into Mako system and is optimized by your surgeon so that he can create your personalized preoperative plan.

In the Operating Theater: Your surgeon is performing the operation with the Robotic Arm Assistance based on your true anatomy and your personalized preoperative plan. The Robotic Arm is guided by the qualified orthopaedic surgeon within a predefined space according to your personal anatomy and only fine adjustments can be performed during the operation so that any possible mistake can be excluded.

After Surgery: Your Surgeon the nurse and the physiotherapist will help you to stand up and move again. In most of the cases patients can walk with full weight bearing within 24 hours after the operation.

What Makes Mako Robotic Arm Assisted Surgery so Unique.

• Systematic Personalized and extremely accurate preoperative plan
• Precision Implant Anatomic Placement
• Possibility of treatment of early Arthritis with the replacement of just a part of the knee
• Much Smaller Incision and less blood loss especially for Partial Knee Replacement.
• Minimization of complications
• Much Faster Recovery and Rehabilitation
