Apollo Institute of Orthopaedics completes 370 Robotic Knee Replacements

Dr. Madan Mohan Reddy, Joint Replacement Surgeon, Apollo Hospitals said “With the robotic arm, reproduction of precise bone cuts for patients can be done, every single time, first on a virtual 3D model and then in the operation theatre. Several studies prove that patients who underwent robotic arm-assisted surgery experienced improved early function, lower post-op pain, less need for analgesics, faster recovery and higher patient satisfaction compared to manual surgery. The success rate in conventional knee replacement surgery is about 90% to 95% but with robotic-assisted surgeries, the accuracy is cent per cent. Patients recover faster and relief is long-lasting” Ms. Preetha Reddy, Executive Vice Chairperson, Apollo Hospitals Group said, “At Apollo, we are bringing in cutting edge medical technology, representing the next era of healthcare innovation to treat patients. Robotic Orthopaedic procedures were introduced at Apollo in the ---- year ), this has helped us in helping patients recover from joint
