From arthritis of the hip to dislocation to deterioration caused by aging joints, our team uses the latest techniques to treat patients including minimally invasive, robotic-assisted, and custom procedures tailored to your special requirements, goals, and activity levels.
These questions will help you talk about your hip pain with your doctor. They’ll also help you and your doctor determine the best course of treatment for you.
Severe hip pain or stiffness resulting from: noninflammatory degenerative joint disease (including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis), rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis. It is also for people who haven’t experienced adequate relief from conservative treatment options, like bracing, medication, or joint fluid supplements.
Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Total Hip replacement is a treatment option for adults living with mid to late-stage osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. Mako enables you to have a more predictable surgical experience because it provides you with a personalized surgical plan based on your unique anatomy.
Prior to surgery, a CT scan of your hip joint is taken in order to generate a 3D virtual model of your unique anatomy. The 3D model helps your doctor see things he or she can’t typically see with an x-ray alone. This additional information helps your doctor determine the optimal size, placement and positioning of your implant.
Throughout your procedure, Mako provides real-time data to your surgeon. This allows them to continuously assess the movement and tension of your new joint, and adjust your surgical plan if desired.
In the operating room, your surgeon guides Mako’s robotic arm to remove the arthritic bone and cartilage from the hip. A virtual boundary provides tactile resistance to help the surgeon stay within the boundaries defined in your surgical plan.
As the surgeon prepares to place the implant into its final position, the robotic-arm guides the implant at the desired angle defined in the surgical plan. This helps ensure the placement and alignment of the implant are performed according to plan.
