What is Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery?
Precision and Personalization in Joint Replacement
Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery is an innovative, minimally invasive approach to joint replacement that offers the potential for greater precision and personalization, leading to improved outcomes, faster recovery times, and a quicker return to the activities you love.
How Mako Works
One of the key advantages of Mako is its 3D modeling capability. Before surgery, a CT scan of your joint is used to create a 3D model. This allows your surgeon to plan your surgery in detail, taking into account your unique anatomy and needs. This personalized plan helps ensure that your new joint is optimally positioned for better function and comfort.
Benefits of Mako Robotic-Assisted Surgery
- Smaller incisions: Mako may allow for smaller incisions, which can mean less scarring and a faster initial recovery.
- Reduced pain: Some patients find that they experience less pain after Mako surgery.
- Faster recovery: The precision of Mako may help promote quicker healing and a faster return to your normal activities.
