Robot-arm assisted hip and knee replacements (MAKO, Stryker) are considered by many to be leading-edge technology in hip and knee surgery. Whilst the robot does not replace the surgeon, the pre-operative planning process helps to identify the ideal implant position for you and your joint, and the robot-arm assists in ensuring this implant position is achieved.
