Mako robotic surgery
At Northern Private Hospital we pride ourself on providing quality care close to home and delivering cutting-edge techniques and equipment. Our surgeons are able to offer Mako robotic-arm assisted surgery for partial knee, total knee, and reverse shoulder replacement surgeries.
How it works
The Mako system is an advanced, surgeon-controlled, robotic arm designed to increase the accuracy of joint replacements.
A CT scan of your joint is used to generate a 3D model of your unique anatomy. This virtual model is loaded into the Mako System software and is used by your surgeon to create your personalised pre-operative plan.
When the surgeon prepares the bone for implant, the Mako system guides the surgeon within a pre-defined area, ultimately assisting in maximum placement accuracy and alignment of the implant.
The soft tissue (muscles and ligaments) around the joint are minimally disrupted which may translate to faster recovery time and less postoperative pain.
