Robotic vs. Traditional Knee Replacement Surgery
Traditional Knee Replacement Surgery also called
knee arthroplasty or total knee replacement
surgery is an invasive method to resurface
arthritis damaged knee or severe knee injury.
Implants of metal or plastic are used to cap the
bones that form the knee joint. Various types of
arthritis like osteoarthritis (a degenerative
joint disease affecting middle-aged people
causing breaking down of joint cartilages and
bones), rheumatoid arthritis (inflammation of
synovial membrane resulting in an excessive flow
of synovial fluid which eventually causes pain
and stiffness in the knee) and Traumatic
arthritis (due to accident or hard contact) are
prevalent in the knee that may cause abnormal
functioning, restricted functioning, locking of
knee, pain and discomfort. 
The knee replacement surgery aims to relieve knee
pain that could not be controlled by other
treatments like medicine, physiotherapy, rest or
braces.

Talking about Robotic Surgery the first and the
foremost thing to be said about it is that the
surgery procedure and process for Knee
replacement surgery is almost the same as the
traditional knee replacement surgery. The second
thing to be clarified is that Robotic surgery
does not mean that the whole process is done by
Robots. These are the two main facts about
Robotic surgery that most people misunderstand.
In this procedure, the process is aided by a
robotic arm and computerized system which is
controlled by the surgeon. A computerized imaging
system and a robotic arm controlled cohesively by
the surgeon are the two major components
differentiating this surgery from the traditional
knee replacement surgery. Your knee is bound to
get the best of the two worlds.

Robotic-assisted procedures have become the trend
of today and Dr. Sunil Rajan, the best Joint
replacement surgeon in Indore, has always been
trendy with his approach to surgery. He is always
ahead of time and has brought Robotic surgery
into the Knee replacement field for the first
time in Central India. He has now elevated the
knee replacement process by being trained in
robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery and now
is the best robotic joint replacement surgeon in
Indore. 
This robotic-aided surgery is potentially focused
to give benefit to the patient but it gives the
surgeon also some very hi-tech advantages like
enhanced precision, flexibility, control and
vision. 
Patient benefits include
More precise surgery aiding surgeon to operate
near healthy tissues and save damage to unwanted
areas. The small size and flexibility of the
robotic instruments make this possible.
Pain is lower than the traditional surgical method
Infection and blood loss have also been on a
decrease with robotic surgery due to the tiny
incisions required by this robotic aided surgery
technique.

Less hospitalization has been recorded for
patients having robotic surgery which in turn
also helps in lowering theirs overall treatment
cost. It has been also possible to send patients
back home the very same day too.
The scarring has also considerable reduced due to
the minute incisions..
Faster recovery time is another advantage of
robotic surgery as smaller incisions need lesser
time to heal. Recovery could be as fast as just a
few days.
There are clinical benefits that have been
recorded in robotic aided surgery and have put
robotic surgery at a higher platform than others,
today.
Surgeon benefits include
The enhanced visual field through high definition
camera and scans providing magnified 3D detail of
the affected area. The microscopic structure can
be seen more clearly and can be processed upon
with more precision.

The robotic arm controlled by the surgeon that
can move 360 degrees is an added advantage to the
reach and dexterity of the surgeon. He can
operate at difficult angles and precise
locations. Moreover, the arm is pre-programmed
with exact areas of operation which restricts it
from getting into healthier regions around the
affected area giving it perfect precision.

Robotic Joint Replacement surgery is the thing of
the new generation with better surgical
experience and post-surgery quality of life.
