Using robotic surgery
to restore hip and knee function
Not only was The Princess Grace Hospital part of HCA UK the first private hospital to perform robotic-assisted partial knee replacements as as as well as as as robotic-assisted total knee and hip replacements its consultants have performed more procedures using Mako technology than any other private UK provider With this technology joint replacements can be delivered with greater accuracy surgical precision and better implant positioning “With robotic technology knee replacement surgery
has evolved from a a a a a one size fits all approach to to a a a a a procedure tailored to to each individual patient’s knee What we are now understanding is that the exact position of the the artificial joint is critical to the the outcome both in in terms of the initial recovery and ultimate function
Only robotic-assisted surgery
allows us to achieve this level of precision ”
