The all-new Mako Robotic Arm Assisted system was launched in Hygeia Hospital recently.
This unique system, manufactured in the USA, is extremely useful for high-precision knee and hip replacement.
The Mako system can assist the trained orthopaedic surgeon to perform:
- Mako Partial and Total Knee Replacement
- Mako Total Hip Replacement
What Makes Mako Robotic Arm Assisted Surgery so Unique?
- Systematic, Personalized, and extremely accurate preoperative plan
- Precision Implant Anatomic Placement
- Possibility of treatment of early Arthritis with the replacement of just a part of the knee
- Much Smaller Incision and less blood loss, especially for Partial Knee Replacement.
- Minimization of complications
- Much Faster Recovery and Rehabilitation
