Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery is a state-of-the-art treatment for patients experiencing early to mid-stage osteoarthritis of the knee and hip.
Mako Partial Knee replacement is designed to relieve pain caused by joint degeneration and can offer appropriate patients:
- Smaller incision
- Less scarring
- Shorter hospitalization
- Quicker recovery
Mako Total Hip replacement can offer the following benefits:
- Accurate placement of the hip implant using the surgeon-controlled robotic arm system, reducing the likelihood of hip dislocation
- More consistency in leg length, potentially decreasing the need for a shoe lift
- Decreased risk of the implant and bone abnormally rubbing together, improving the lifetime of the implant
