Knee prosthesis surgery, especially for patients with severe joint degeneration, is an effective method to restore mobility and alleviate pain.Traditional knee replacement involves removing the damaged cartilage and bone and replacing them with metal and plastic implants. However, advancements in robotic knee replacement surgery have revolutionized the procedure by enhancing precision. In robotic surgery, 3D imaging of the knee joint is used for detailed surgical planning, which allows for more accurate placement of implants, improving alignment and balance. The robotic arm assists the surgeon by ensuring precise cuts and placements, reducing the margin for error. This leads to less tissue damage, faster recovery, and longer-lasting prosthetic joints.  As a result, patients experience improved outcomes, fewer complications, and a quicker return to daily activities. The increasing adoption of robotic technology in orthopedic surgeries promises to advance procedures like hip, spine, and tumor surgeries in the near future.

Robotic Knee Replacement Surgery is an advanced method in orthopedic treatment, increasingly used to enhance the precision and effectiveness of knee prosthesis procedures.Unlike traditional surgeries, robotic knee replacement relies on computer-guided systems and robotic arms to assist surgeons in executing bone cuts with extraordinary accuracy. This technology uses preoperative CT scans to generate a 3D model of the patient's knee, allowing surgeons to personalize the surgical plan and adjust the implant placement to match the patient's anatomy perfectly. The main advantage of robotic surgery is its ability to minimize human error, as the robotic arm helps ensure precise bone incisions and ideal prosthetic alignment, reducing the risk of post-operative complications such as prosthetic wear or loosening. This precision contributes to longer-lasting implants, reduced recovery times, and improved patient outcomes. Additionally, the robotic system provides continuous feedback during the surgery, enabling the surgeon to make real-time adjustments for optimal results. In the future, robotic technology is expected to expand into other areas of orthopedics, including shoulder and spine surgeries, further revolutionizing surgical care.

Traditional and modern approaches can be preferred in hip replacement. Traditional hip replacement is performed with a single, large incision that helps the surgeon access the hip, usually from the side (lateral approach) or from the back (posterior approach). Recovery can take time in traditional surgery because the surgeon must cut or separate some muscles and tendons to reach the joint. (Muscles and tendons are repaired when hip replacements are placed.) There may be a risk of dislocation until all supporting structures heal.Today, with developing technologies, minimally invasive modern techniques have generally become preferred. The most up-to-date of these is robotic arm-assisted prosthesis surgeries. This method is also known as robotic arthroplasty, robotic surgery, robotic prosthesis surgery and makoplasty.What are the advantages of robotic prosthesis surgery (robotic arthroplasty) in hip replacement?With developing technologies, robotic arms have begun to be used frequently as support in joint replacements. With this technology, the operation plan can be made in a patient-specific way (for example, a three-dimensional virtual model specific to the patient's anatomy). Surgeons can work more meticulously, determine the accuracy of the prosthesis placement more clearly, and the patient can recover faster and achieve better results.The advantages of robotic surgery can be listed as follows:• Creating a personalized surgical plan and selecting the ideal prosthesis dimensions before surgery • Extending the life of the prosthesis by reducing the risk of abnormal friction of the prosthesis against the bone • More accurate adjustment of leg length equality • Minimizing errors that may occur in patients with different joint anatomy • Providing more precise operations in difficult cases due to anatomy (rheumatism, hip dislocation, etc.)
