Robotic Knee Replacement in Pune & PCMC – Precision, Recovery, Mobility
Knee replacement surgery is now performed using a robotic arm for a minimally invasive procedure to replace the damaged knee joint with an artificial knee joint. Robotic surgery performed using a robotic arm is better because it can be performed with much smaller incisions, greater accuracy, reduced blood loss, and shorter surgical time.
Robotic knee replacement surgery results in fewer complications and patients are more compliant post-operative, and recover much faster than traditional knee replacement surgery. Robotic knee replacement surgery is indicated for complex degenerative processes, to extract or replace prosthesis after failed primary surgery, femur deformities, a complex condition of the knee joint, and osteoarthritis.
What is Robotic Knee Replacement?
A robotic knee replacement is the same as a traditional knee replacement; our Knee Replacement surgeon will remove damaged tissue in your knee and replace it with an artificial joint. The difference has to do with the robot’s assistance; this allows the surgeon to perform the procedure more accurately. If your knee replacement is more complicated, then doing a robotic-assisted knee replacement provides better balance of the soft tissue around your knee and better alignment of the joint.
Unlike traditional methods, robotic-assisted surgery uses a computer-guided system to map the patient’s knee anatomy in real-time, ensuring highly personalized and precise implant positioning.
How Robotic Knee Replacement surgery Works?
Robotic-assisted knee joint replacement surgery is one of the newest computerized surgical procedure advancements. This procedure involves making a virtual model of a patient’s knee by utilizing Computed Tomography (CT) scans, allowing for further precision in implant positioning. Some newer systems have even eliminated the need to utilize CT scans.
During the procedure, the robotic knee replacement surgeon is able to make smaller incisions in order to access the knee. Once access is achieved, the robotic knee replacement surgeon is able to determine the degree of wear on the knee and the ligaments using the robotic system’s probe. Then, the surgeon will formulate a surgical plan based on the findings and prepare the bone using a robotic arm that utilizes either a saw or a burr-type system.
All of this information about the accuracy of the implant positioning is displayed on the robotic system screen, which is usually less than 0.5mm or 0.5 degrees. (For more accuracy, the robotic system screen may also display the yelled magnetic device, providing a solid rationale for accuracy)! While the Knee Replacement surgeon is still responsible for the surgery, the robotic arm is always under the surgeon’s control yielding a precise and therefore safe procedure.
Patients report lower discomfort in the two weeks post-surgery, especially if the prosthesis is placed correctly. There is also reduced blood loss and the chance of infection.
Benefits of Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery
Choosing robotic knee replacement surgery offers a range of benefits compared to conventional procedures:
- Greater Accuracy – Robotic systems provide real-time data and 3D imaging for precise implant placement.
- Smaller Incisions – Minimally invasive surgery means reduced tissue damage and scarring.
- Faster Recovery – Patients typically return to daily activities sooner with less postoperative pain.
- Reduced Risk of Complications – Enhanced precision reduces the chances of implant misalignment and the need for revision surgery.
- Better Joint Function – The procedure preserves more natural movement and provides better joint stability.

FAQs
Robotic knee replacement is a technologically advanced procedure that uses a robotic-assisted system to enhance the precision of implant placement. Unlike traditional surgery, it offers 3D imaging and real-time data, resulting in better alignment, reduced pain, and faster recovery.
Patients with severe knee arthritis, joint degeneration, or those not responding to medications or physical therapy are ideal candidates. A thorough evaluation by our orthopedic surgeon will determine if robotic knee replacement is right for you.
Recovery is usually quicker than traditional knee replacement. Most patients start walking within a day or two and resume daily activities in 3–6 weeks with the help of physiotherapy and post-operative care.
Yes, robotic knee replacement is considered safe and highly effective. It improves surgical accuracy, minimizes complications, and enhances long-term joint function. Many patients report improved mobility and quality of life post-surgery.
