Citizens Specialty Hospital offers top-notch orthopedic care with Robotic Joint Replacement Surgery. Expert surgeons use cutting-edge robotic technology – Mako Robotics, for procedures like Total Knee Replacement, Partial Knee Replacement, and Hip Replacement. This advanced approach ensures precise surgery, personalized treatment plans, and improved recovery for every patient undergoing joint replacement at our hospital.
The Mako Robotic Technology is an innovative tool used by Orthopaedic Surgeons to perform knee and hip replacement surgeries for patients suffering from severe arthritis or knee or hip joint damage. Mako System software uses the CT scan report of the patient to create a 3D model of knee and hip which guides the surgeon during procedure.
Mako Robotic Technology is designed to aid Orthopaedic surgeons in hip and knee replacement surgery for patients:

Mako Robotics Total Knee Replacement is for people with severe knee pain or stiffness resulting from: non-inflammatory degenerative disease (including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis), rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis, and those who haven’t experienced adequate relief with conservative treatment options like bracing, medication, or joint fluid supplements.
The advantages of Mako Robotics partial knee replacement include accurate bone removal and implant placement, which results in improved outcome and knee function. Other benefits include postoperative pain and a shorter hospital stay. Research indicates that Mako Robotic Surgery aids in a quicker recovery; nine out of ten patients were walking without an aid, such as a cane or walker, three weeks after the surgery with the patient satisfaction score of 91%.
The advantages of Mako Robotics in Hip Replacement Surgery include preservation of healthy bone, replication of the feeling of a natural hip, reduced blood loss, a lower likelihood of hip dislocation, and more accurate placement and alignment of hip implants based on the surgical plan.
Prior to surgery, a CT scan of the diseased hip or knee is used to generate a 3D virtual model of your hip or knee. This will help your orthopaedic surgeon to formulate a personalised pre-operative plan before surgery.
In the operating room, you will be given general anaesthesia, and the procedure will be performed through tiny incisions. Your surgeon will control the Mako system and will use the pre-surgical plan during real-time surgery. This guides the surgeon’s cuts within the pre-defined area and prevents moving outside the planned boundaries. The Mako system also allows your surgeon to adjust the surgical plan, if required. The diseased bone and cartilage are then removed while protecting the essential structure of the hip or knee. With accurate precision, the implant is placed, and joint is properly balanced. Once surgery is completed, the incision site is closed.
After surgery, you will be taken to the recovery room and your vital signs will be monitored. You will be encouraged to walk around with assistance on the same day of surgery. Most of the patients go home on the same day or an overnight stay may be advised. Your follow-up visit will be scheduled after discharge to monitor your progress.
