Robotic Knee Replacement in Pune

Robotic Precision for Pain-Free Knees: Robotic Knee Replacement at Jupiter Hospital

Jupiter Hospital is at the forefront of providing advanced robotic knee replacement treatment in Pune. Employing the second-generation CORI system, this innovative method integrates 3D imaging guidance and robotic arms, meticulously controlled by our skilled experts through a specialized console.

The procedure involves reconstruction using virtual patient anatomy, ensuring not just accelerated rehabilitation but also an ideal range of motion, facilitating a smooth reintegration into daily routines. The benefits of robotic-assisted knee surgery are diverse, encompassing detailed surgical planning, heightened precision, minimized incisions, expanded ligament-sparing options, precise implant fitting, improved positioning, and superior soft-tissue balancing.

The exceptional skills of our surgeons enhance the robotic precession, maximizing advantages for patients undergoing the operation. In the initial stages, when patients with knee issues visit the Orthopedic surgeon's OPD, our consultants evaluate the severity of the condition. Conservative treatments like anti-inflammatory medications, weight management, cortisone shots, and knee braces may be suggested. However, if symptoms persist, joint replacement surgery is considered, following diagnostic tests like X-rays and CT scans.

The surgical process, led by our well-trained joint replacement surgeons, involves preliminary investigations, including laboratory tests. Patients typically stay in the hospital for 3 to 4 days, following the doctor's guidance. Post-surgery, rehabilitation starts promptly, with physiotherapists guiding patients in taking small steps with support. Specific exercises are prescribed to achieve a near-normal gait pattern and maximize range of motion. Emphasizing continued exercises post-discharge, periodic follow-ups ensure a thorough and effective recovery. Experience a transformative treatment journey by choosing our robotic knee replacement hospital in Pune.

Looking for the Robotic Knee Replacement in Pune

Arthritis

Arthritis, characterized by joint swelling and tenderness, manifests through symptoms like joint pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion, often worsening with age. The two most prevalent types are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

The management of arthritis focuses on pain control, minimizing joint damage, and enhancing or maintaining functionality and quality of life. Various medications and lifestyle adjustments contribute to achieving these goals, tailored to the severity of the condition, ranging from anti-inflammatory medications to Total Joint Replacement Surgeries.

Total / Unicondylar Knee Replacement

Total/Unicondylar Knee Replacement is an orthopedic procedure restoring pain-free movement by replacing damaged knee joints with prosthetic components.Typically recommended for cases of severe joint damage where the joint is extensively worn out, accompanied by progressive pain and diminished mobility, the procedure seeks to alleviate pain, enhance mobility, and restore overall function.

The success of knee replacement hinges on critical factors such as leg alignment, implant position, and fit. Modern implants, now available, boast a lifespan of up to 30 years. For comprehensive arthritis management and advanced Total/Unicondylar Knee Replacement procedures, consider Jupiter Hospital, a renowned facility specializing in Robotic Knee Replacement treatment in Pune .

Understanding Robotic-Assisted Knee Surgery

In joint replacement surgery, success depends on getting things just right—the implant, joint alignment, and balancing the ligaments. The robot shares details about the joint's shape, ligaments, and balance, helping pick the right-sized implant tailored to the joint. These steps ensure that the surgery is successful.

The robotic arm guides the surgery path accurately and stops if there's even a tiny detour. Before surgery, a CT scan plots a 3D model of the patient's knee. This helps surgeons place the implant exactly right. During surgery, the robotic arm uses this 3D model to help plot a safe path for surgeons, preventing harm to nearby tissue. This careful process ensures that robotic surgery achieves the needed alignment and balance, making the surgery accurate and predictable.

Advantages of Choosing Robotic-Assisted Joint Replacement Surgery
  1. Alleviation of Pain: Robotic-Assisted Surgery reduces inflammation caused by foreign bodies, leading to diminished pain and decreased reliance on painkillers. This approach keeps patients less medicated, contributing to a more alert feeling.
  2. Native Bone Preservation: In Robotic arm-assisted surgery, the use of a probe eliminates the need for saws or blades, minimizing blood loss and disturbance to the native bone. This preservation strategy significantly benefits patients during the procedure.
  3. Speedy Recovery: Smaller incisions and enhanced surgical precision in Robotic-Assisted surgeries result in minimal disturbance to bone and tissue, expediting the body's natural healing process. This translates to a quicker recovery for the patient.
  4. Natural Post-Surgery Sensation: Robotic techniques facilitate the selection of implants based on the patient's specific anatomy, enhancing accuracy. This precise implant placement contributes to a more natural post-surgery feeling, reducing joint awareness in daily activities.
  5. Radiation-Free Procedure: Equipped with advanced software, the Robotic arm provides image-free, smart mapping, enabling real-time characterization of bone and cartilage without the need for frequent preoperative imaging. This eliminates the necessity for extra radiation, such as CT scans or X-rays before and after surgery, ensuring a hassle-free procedure for patients.
  6. Progress in Unicondylar Knee Replacement: Traditionally met with skepticism due to higher failure rates, unicondylar knee replacements have undergone a transformation with robotic technology. This advancement has significantly improved the success and predictability of unicondylar knee replacement, instilling confidence in surgeons to offer this option to their patients.
