Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery

Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery Available in Fall River, MA

The procedure is an innovative, robotic-arm assisted alternative to traditional knee and hip replacement surgeries.

Mako Partial Knee replacement and Total Knee replacement are designed to relieve pain caused by joint degeneration and can offer:

• Improved surgical outcomes resulting in a more natural feeling knee following surgery
• Less implant wear and loosening
• Joint resurfacing
• Bone sparing
• Smaller incision
• Less scarring
• Reduced blood loss
• Shorter hospitalization
• Rapid recovery

Mako Total Hip replacement can offer the following benefits over traditional hip replacement:

• 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
