Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacements Now Available at NWOS
Northwest Orthopaedic Specialists is Now Offering Robotic-Arm Assisted Joint Replacement Procedures With Stryker’s Mako System
Northwest Orthopaedic Specialists is proud to now offer robotic-arm assisted total knee and partial knee replacements with Stryker’s Mako System at our Ambulatory Orthopaedic Surgery Center. This advanced and innovative technology transforms the way joint replacement surgery is performed, enabling your surgeon to pre-plan your surgery using Mako’s software, allowing for greater precision, potentially shorter recovery times, and even better results.
The Mako Robotic System is a knee replacement treatment option designed to relieve the pain caused by joint degeneration due to osteoarthritis. Through CT-based 3D modeling of bone anatomy, surgeons can use the Mako System to create a personalized surgical plan and identify the implant size, orientation, and alignment based on each patient’s unique anatomy. The Mako System also enables surgeons to virtually modify the surgical plan intra-operatively and assists the surgeon in executing bone resections.
