What is it? Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai is a modern knee replacement surgery that incorporates the use of the VELYS™ robotic system, which assists surgeons with highly accurate implantation of knee replacement components. Benefits of the system include the ability to create a customized surgical plan that is free from CT imaging, resulting in less injury to surrounding tissues, reduced time lost to recovery, and improved stability of the replacement joint for patients with significant knee arthritis.
Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai provides an excellent solution to regain mobility and improve the quality of life for patients who are suffering from debilitating knee pain. Robotic-assisted technology further enhances the precision of the surgical plan and the positioning of the implant, resulting in better mobility and greater relief of chronic knee pain.
The pain of advanced joint degeneration, even for basic tasks such as walking or climbing stairs, is all too real for many. Fortunately, the advances in the field of orthopedics and modern surgery have transformed the joint care. Dr. Kunal Patel, at Kneebotics, provides the expertise of imageless robotics, tailoring the complete procedure to the anatomy of the patient.
What is Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai?
If you are curious about what happens in a Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai, or if you are considering this option to treat chronic pain, we believe it is important to understand the technology that will be used to treat you. Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai is a combination of a highly skilled surgeon and a robotic assistant to perform the procedure seamlessly.
Until recently, if you opted for a Total Knee Replacement, we would remove the damaged tissue and bone from the surfaces of your knee joint and then replace them with an implant. For those people suffering from chronic pain from conditions like osteoarthritis, this would mean the pain would be alleviated, and the function of the knee would be restored.
A robot, in this case, is not a replacement for a surgeon. It is an advanced system that is highly integrated with a surgeon. The VELYS™ Robotic Assisted Solution is one of those systems that provides real time data to a surgeon and allows them to make precise cuts to the bone and align the implant as accurately as required.
Unlike a traditional knee replacement that used manual instruments and was mostly reliant on visual alignment, Robotic Joint Replacement in Mumbai provides a system that uses digital tracking and a robotic arm to achieve accuracy of sub millimeters. Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai also aims to minimize the impact on any of the surrounding soft tissue that may not be affected by the replacement.
No two knees are the same and Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai recognizes that. In robotic surgery, the surgical team is given the option of creating a customized plan for the surgical procedure in which the exact dimensions of the patient’s knee are mapped. This ensures that the artificial joint is implanted in a position that is tailored to the unique biochemistry and anatomy of the patient’s knee.
Who Can Benefit from Robotic Total Knee Replacement?
Not everyone with knee problems will need surgery. Yet, Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai is truly life-changing for some patients. Here’s who we think can benefit from it.
Advanced Knee Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis progressively destroys the knee cartilage, resulting in painful knee-to-knee contact. In its more intense stages, advanced rheumatic knee osteoarthritis can inspire surgeons to offer more permanent solutions, like total knee replacement.
Chronic Knee Pain
Consulting a doctor is important when chronic knee pain (especially the kind that interferes with sleep and common day-to-day activities) reaches levels that limit your autonomy. Chronic knee pain is one of the most common surgery indications.
Decreased Flexibility
Severe stiffness due to knee damage can prevent full extension and flexion. Total knee replacement surgery can provide a full recovery of knee mobility.
Failed Conservative Treatments
Surgery is usually a last-resort option. Persisting pain following physical therapy, weight loss, corticosteroid injections, and pain-relief medications can justify the total knee replacement surgery.
Joint Damage
Knee joint damage due to trauma and prolonged rheumatoid arthritis can present severe structural damage. In these cases, Robotic Knee Replacement in Mumbai can provide the best treatment option.
Understanding Robotic Total Knee Replacement
Robotic Total Knee Replacement is a safe advanced total knee replacement procedure that is well-coordinated in multiple steps designed to achieve the best outcome.
Initial Consultation and Evaluation
Your path to healing starts here with an evaluation with Dr. Kunal Patel. He will examine your history, check your body, and assess your mobility to see if you are a candidate for surgery.
Imaging and Surgical Planning
In older robotic platforms, imaging was required. The VELYS system we use at Kneebotics, does not require imaging. This means no more long, expensive, and inconvenient CT and MRI scans before your surgery.
Robotic-Assisted Surgery
During the surgery, Dr. Kunal Patel has the robotic arm to assist in the execution of the surgery. Because of the system’s design, the robotic arm limits the area in which the surgical tools can be placed, protecting surrounding tissues from injury.
Precise Implant Placement
The setup provides the doctor with realtime information regarding the tension of your tissues. Dr. Patel will fine-tune the placement of the ATTUNE™ Knee System implant in order to achieve the best fit to ensure the joint will be stable and feel natural.
Post-Surgical Recovery
When compared to other more traditional methods of performing surgery, the more precise and less invasive nature of this surgery helps ensure patients experience significantly reduced pain after surgery with recovery commencing almost immediately.
Benefits of Robotic Total Knee Replacement in Mumbai
In addition to the benefits discussed above, robotic assistance provides greater precision. With traditional methods, bone resections are approximated. With the robotic system, these are performed with complete accuracy.
Aligned Implants
Knee implants must be aligned properly for the sake of the patient. The use of VELYS robotic technology balances the implant during the procedure to avoid premature wear.
Custom Solutions
Because the robotic technology is adaptable to a patient’s anatomy and personalized throughout the procedure, many patients report that their knee feels more natural than knees operated on with traditional robotic methods.
Less Tissue Damage
Sticking to the boundaries of the robotic plan means that necessary tissue for recovery is preserved, which reduces the pain and swelling after the procedure.
Shorter Recuperation
A patient’s recuperation is likely shorter with robotic knee surgery in Mumbai than from traditional surgical methods because of the lesser disruption of tissue.
Optimized Durability
Patients frequently feel more satisfied and have greater confidence in their joints after traditional robotic knee surgery in Mumbai because the methods used ensure optimal placement of the implant.
The Importance of Precision in Robotic Knee Surgery
In robotic knee surgery, the precision of placement is crucial to the success of the procedure; even the slightest shift can result in the system being off-balance and hinder the patient’s new functionality.
Safely Loaded Implants
Incorrect placement of the implant system in a traditional robotic method can result in the system being off-balance and loaded incorrectly. The VELYS robotic system focuses on placement of the support system safely in a loaded position.
Natural Movement
A precisely placed support system plays a crucial role in a patient’s new knee functionality, allowing the patient to walk, sit, and stand comfortably with support of the system.
Better Range of Motion
With a balance of soft tissue and precise bone cuts, the knee can regain full range of motion by bending and flexing without any restrictions.
Improved Patient Satisfaction
Implants that are precisely positioned yield fewer complications and chronic stiffness, resulting in a greater satisfaction rate of the surgical outcome.
