Is Mako® Robotic-Arm Assisted Joint Replacement for You?

The Mako surgical system is used in joint replacement to promote accuracy and control and to spare any healthy bones or ligaments from being removed.

In preoperative planning, the imaging software gives your joint replacement specialist the ability to create a personalized plan that meets your specific needs and to predefine the boundaries of your operation.

During surgery, the robotic assistance and intraoperative software help doctors perform complex techniques with enhanced precision and flexibility.

Robotic-assisted joint replacements come with many benefits, including:

  • Implants designed for natural, normal movement  
  • Less pain and quicker recovery than traditional joint replacements
  • Personalized surgical plans based on your anatomy for longer-lasting joints
  • Reduced risk of complications—our surgeons know more and cut less
