Robotic Knee Replacements by Dr. Harsha G N

Robotic knee replacement is an advanced orthopedic procedure used to treat severe knee arthritis, joint damage, and deformities that cause chronic pain and limited mobility. This technology-assisted surgery enables precise planning and execution by using robotic systems to guide the surgeon during implant positioning, ensuring greater accuracy and consistency.

Each procedure is customized to the patient’s unique knee anatomy using preoperative imaging and real-time data. By preserving healthy bone and soft tissues, robotic knee replacement improves joint alignment, stability, and long-term implant performance while minimizing surgical trauma.

When to Consider Robotic Knee Replacement

• Persistent knee pain and stiffness affecting daily activities
• Advanced osteoarthritis or inflammatory arthritis of the knee
• Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or standing for extended periods
• Inadequate relief from medications, injections, or physiotherapy

Advantages of Robotic Knee Replacement

• Highly accurate implant placement for improved joint alignment
• Reduced postoperative pain and faster functional recovery
• Enhanced knee movement, stability, and implant longevity
• Shorter hospital stay and quicker return to normal activities

Rehabilitation after robotic knee replacement is a key factor in achieving optimal outcomes. Structured physiotherapy focuses on restoring knee movement, strengthening muscles, and improving balance. Ongoing follow-up ensures proper healing, implant performance, and sustained pain relief.
