Robot Knee Replacement Surgery In Wales using the MAKO Robotic arm

Read about Chris Wilson, view his qualifications and his background.

Total knee replacement is a surgical procedure in which a diseased or damaged joint is replaced with an artificial joint called an implant. Made of metal alloys and high grade plastics (to better match the function of bone and cartilage, respectively), the implant is designed to move much like a healthy human joint.

When you hear ‘robotic-arm assisted technology,’ it’s important to understand that the Mako Robotic-Arm doesn’t actually perform the surgery. Surgery is performed by an orthopaedic surgeon, who uses the Mako System software to pre-plan your surgery. Your orthopaedic surgeon will guide the Mako robotic-arm to remove diseased bone and cartilage. Then the surgeon will insert an implant.

Mako Technology was designed to help surgeons provide patients with a personalised surgical experience based on their specific diagnosis and anatomy.
