This unique robotic system represents a breakthrough in knee replacement surgery, and is the only one that allows surgeons to perform total hip replacement. Based on the patient’s physical condition, anatomy and diagnosis, a unique treatment plan is curated. With guidance from an orthopaedic surgeon, the robotic arm is used to remove bone and cartilage and place the implant. A 3D virtual model of the patient’s knee helps the surgeon in guiding the robot to achieving a high level of precision. Some notable advantages of the MAKO robotic system include:
-
Based on the patient’s CT scan report, a 3D pre-operative plan is generated.
-
Allows the surgeon to accurately carry out the surgical process.
-
Helps protect surrounding soft tissue from damage.
-
Provides all procedure-specific data in real-time
-
Supports successful long-term outcomes.
-
Minimally invasive nature of the procedure reduces post-operative pain.
-
Significantly reduces blood loss and speeds up recovery.
Through a unique integration of minimally invasive techniques with state-of-the-art technology, the Meril CUVIS robotic surgery system allows surgeons to perform complex surgical procedures with extraordinary precision. It uses a combination of cutting-edge features that make it stand out:
-
Minimally invasive techniques: Smaller incisions allow patients to recover faster, significantly reducing their duration of hospital stay.
-
Robotic arms: These are designed to enhance the dexterity of the human hand, allowing surgeons to perform intricate tasks with a high level of precision and control.
-
3D visualization: This feature improves spatial awareness and clarity of the surgical site by offering a three-dimensional view that makes the overall surgical process easier.
-
Ceramicized implants: Unlike standard implants that are generally made of cobalt-chrome, ceramicized implants have a ceramic-coated surface. Since standard implants contain nickel and may cause metal allergy in certain patients, ceramicized implants avoid such allergies because the surface coating prevents nickel exposure.
-
Innovative interface: The system’s user-friendly interface allows new users to seamlessly transition from traditional surgical methods to robotic-assisted surgery.
