Stryker Mako for Knee and Hip Replacement

As technology continues to advance at an unprecedented pace, the field of healthcare has also witnessed remarkable innovations. In the realm of orthopedic surgery, robotic technology has emerged as a game-changer, transforming the way hip and knee surgeries are performed. One such groundbreaking innovation is the Stryker 

What is Stryker Mako?

 Stryker Mako is a cutting-edge robotic surgical system that combines the precision of robotic technology with the expertise of orthopedic surgeons. This state-of-the-art system enables our surgeons to perform highly accurate and personalized joint replacement surgeries, ensuring superior outcomes for patients.

How Does It Work? 

Stryker Mako employs a three-step process: preoperative planning, intraoperative guidance, and real-time feedback. The process begins with a detailed preoperative planning phase, where our surgeon utilizes advanced 3D imaging and modeling technology to create a personalized surgical plan. This plan allows our surgeon to precisely map the patient’s anatomy, ensuring optimal implant alignment and placement.

During the surgery, our surgeon employs the Mako system as a guiding tool. The robotic arm is meticulously controlled by our surgeon, who utilizes real-time feedback from the system to make precise adjustments. The system’s cutting-edge technology assists our surgeon in achieving accurate bone preparation and implant positioning, resulting in improved long-term outcomes for patients.

Advantages of Using Stryker Mako:

1. Enhanced Precision: Stryker Mako enables surgeons to achieve unparalleled precision during joint replacement surgeries. The advanced imaging and planning tools assist in the precise mapping of a patient’s anatomy, allowing for accurate implant placement and alignment. This precision reduces the risk of complications and improves overall surgical outcomes.
2. Personalized Approach: With Stryker Mako, each surgery is tailored to our patient’s unique anatomy. The preoperative planning phase ensures a personalized surgical plan, allowing our surgeons to address specific patient needs effectively. This personalized approach enhances the fit and functionality of the implant, leading to improved joint function and reduced postoperative pain.
3. Minimally Invasive Surgery: The robotic arm utilized by Stryker Mako facilitates minimally invasive surgery, minimizing trauma to surrounding tissues. The smaller incisions result in reduced blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery times for our patients. Additionally, the reduced disruption to muscles and tendons may lead to improved joint stability and range of motion.

Conditions Treated by Stryker Mako:

1. Osteoarthritis: Stryker Mako offers a breakthrough in the treatment of osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease. By precisely removing the damaged joint surface and placing the implant with utmost accuracy, the system helps relieve pain, restore joint function, and improve overall quality of life.
2. Rheumatoid Arthritis: For patients with rheumatoid arthritis, the Stryker Mako system provides exceptional precision and customization. Our surgeons can accurately remove the damaged tissue and restore joint function, alleviating pain and improving mobility.
3. Hip Dysplasia: Stryker Mako offers an effective solution for our patients with hip dysplasia, a condition characterized by a misaligned hip joint. The system allows our surgeons to precisely reposition the hip joint, optimizing its function and reducing the risk of complications.

The integration of robotic technology in joint replacement surgery has ushered in a new era of precision and personalized care. Stryker Mako has proven to be a game-changer in the field, empowering surgeons to achieve unparalleled accuracy and improve patient outcomes. With its enhanced precision,
