Who is robotic-assisted surgery suitable for?

Robot-assisted procedures are used in particular for advanced osteoarthritis of the knee, joint deformities and planned knee replacement surgery.

We will discuss with you in a personal consultation whether this method is suitable for your situation.

Your benefits at a glance
  • Maximum implantation precision: Precise implant positioning for improved function and durability.
  • Individually tailored surgical planning: Each procedure is prepared for the individual patient rather than a “standard knee”.
  • Protection of soft tissue and surrounding structures: Less strain on soft tissue and potentially lower risks of pain and complications.
  • Optimal implant alignment: Optimal alignment may reduce the need for revision surgery.
  • Support for faster mobilisation: An earlier return to everyday life, work and leisure activities.
  • Potentially better long-term outcomes
What does robotic-assisted surgery mean?

During robot-assisted surgery, an advanced system supports our surgeons in planning and performing the procedure. The experienced surgeon remains in complete control at all times.

The system helps to analyse your individual anatomy accurately, plan the procedure precisely and position implants with millimetre precision.

Two robotic systems, one goal: the best possible outcome for your knee

During surgery, the robotic systems provide our experienced surgeons with precise real-time data on anatomy and joint movement. This allows the implant to be positioned with millimetre precision and tailored exactly to your individual anatomy.

The introduction of the robotic systems is being led by two experienced Chief Physicians. Both systems complement our proven surgical approaches and enable even more individualised and precise knee surgery.
