# Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery in Hyderabad/Near Me

ROBOTIC TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY
A Step Towards A Smarter Future
Dr Srinivas Kasha & his team have been at the forefront in incorporating the latest technologies in the field of Joint Replacement Surgery. We take pride in the fact that we have been one of the very few Hospitals across the country to have consistently utilised computed navigated Joint Replacement with minimally invasive techniques to ensure the best possible outcomes for all our patients.
Now, we are excited to announce that we are moving towards the next big revolution in field of Knee & Hip Arthroplasty - ROBOTIC ASSISTED TOTAL JOINT REPLACEMENTS
ROBOTIC SURGERY

Conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the safest and cost-effective procedures performed in orthopaedics. The average Robotic Knee Replacement cost in Hyderabad may range anywhere between 2.5 to 5.5 lakhs. With a patient satisfaction rate measured within the range of 75% to 92%, TKA presents a powerful method for pain relief and functional restoration in patients with advanced arthritis when exhausting all of the non-operative options. As technology and surgical procedures develop, surgeons try to improve patient outcomes and satisfaction.

Robotic Surgery offers an excellent tool in which surgeons can perform procedures while minimising human error & maximising operative accuracy. Over the years, the applicability of robotics in surgery has remarkably progressed.

Robotic Total Knee Replacement uses a preoperative CT scan to create a 3D reconstruction of the original knee. This patient model is then used to calculate the measurement of the femoral & tibial bone resection & select the exact size of the implant.

Robotic Surgery improves surgeons' ability to control implant positioning, ligament balance, and limb alignment, leading to increased prosthesis survivorship. There are promising mechanical, radiographic, and clinical results of robotic TKR.

Robotic Knee Joint Replacement Procedure

  • Patient Consultation The first step is for the doctor to understand the patient’s condition & whether surgery would be appropriate
  • CT Scan of Knee Joints Once the patient agrees to go ahead with the Robotic Total Knee Arthroplasty, a CT Scan of the knee joints is done to get 3D images
  • Pre Surgical Planning Your doctor would then use the Robot to select the artificial joint
  • Surgical Implementation The patient is connected to the robot and stabilized for surgery. In the next stage, the doctor performs registration process to verify if the 3D image of the patient matches the original surgery site.
  • Implant Placement The doctor then inserts & fixes the decided implant for surgery conclusion

Adavntages of Robotic Total Knee Arthroplasty

SIMPLICITY:

Just as every individual has a unique face, the shape of every bone is also different. The Robotic system allows the doctor to take 3D CT images of the patient’s bone & use these images to pre plan the surgery, completely personalised for the patient.

PRE-SELECTION OF ARTIFICIAL JOINT & PRECISE INSERTION:

Robotic surgery allows the doctor to choose the right artificial joint for the patient while ensuring precise & accurate insertion.

SUB-MILLIMETER ACCURACY & OPTIMUM ALIGNMENT:

The robotic system reviews the data & ensure precision in cutting the bone, with regards to the dimensions of the implant chosen during the planning stage. It also ensures right alignment of the patient’s leg axis with the sub-millimetre dimensional accuracy.

UNMATCHED SAFETY:

Bone motion monitor function helps detect patient’s intraoperative slight movement. When the motion is detected the robot stops the motion & prevents errors caused by the patient’s movement.

FAQ's on Robotic Surgery

Who is eligible for robotic surgery?
If an individual is a good candidate for traditional knee replacement surgery, then he or she is a candidate for robotic knee replacement. However, in most cases a patient is not recommended a surgery in the first visit. The doctor would first explore non invasive treatment methods like anti-inflammatory meds, weight loss through diet & exercise, cortisone shots, knee braces & physiotherapy. If none of these work, knee replacement surgery may help.
Does the Robot perform the surgery by itself?
One of the common misconceptions is that surgery is performed 100% by the robot. That is far from truth. While the procedure is assisted by a robotic arm, your orthopedic surgeon will be in control every step of the way. The robotic arm’s job is only to help the surgeon perform with greater precision.
Does it reduce recovery time?
One of the greatest benefits of robotic surgery is that the recovery time is significantly reduced. In a traditional total knee replacement, average patient is not allowed to resume normal activities like going to work until 4 to 6 weeks after surgery. Robot assisted surgery potentially cuts this recovery time by half. Smaller incisions with greater surgical precision mean less bone & tissue are disturbed speeding up body’s natural healing process
What are the potential risks?

As with any surgery, robotic surgery also comes with risks. These are same as the traditional knee surgery which include - nerve damage, blood clots, infection or allergic reaction to the artificial joint.

However, with smaller incision & greater accuracy, the risks are significantly reduced.

Why should you consider Robotic Assisted Knee Joint Replacement Surgery?
  • Greater accuracy
  • Reduced risk of injury to surrounding tissues
  • Less blood loss & smaller incisions
  • Quicker recovery & less pain
  • Better long-term function
  • Better implant longevity
  • Improved quality of life.
