Mako SmartRobotics System
United Regional offers advanced joint replacement using Mako SmartRobotics™, a system designed to deliver personalized surgical precision for hip and knee procedures. Our approach combines cutting-edge technology with compassionate care to help patients regain mobility and quality of life.
Mako SmartRobotics™: How It Works
United Regional delivers exceptional orthopedic care through innovation and expertise. Using Mako SmartRobotics™, our team creates a personalized surgical plan based on a computed tomography (CT) scan of your joint. This 3D model guides the robotic arm during surgery, allowing for precise bone preparation and implant placement while preserving healthy tissue and ensuring optimal alignment.
What to Expect
- Pre-surgery: A CT scan generates a 3D model of your joint to guide your personalized procedure.
- In surgery: The robotic arm assists your surgeon in removing only diseased bone and placing the implant with precision.
- Post-surgery: Our care team sets recovery goals and monitors your progress to help you return to daily activities safely.
Total Hip and Total Knee Replacement
During surgery, your orthopedic surgeon uses the Mako robotic arm to stay within the boundaries of your personalized plan. This ensures only the diseased bone is removed and the implant is positioned with accuracy based on your unique anatomy.
Partial Knee Replacement
For patients with osteoarthritis affecting part of the knee, Mako SmartRobotics™ allows for targeted treatment. The system helps preserve healthy bone and ligaments, reduces trauma, and improves implant placement — resulting in less pain and a smoother recovery.
