The Advantages of Robotic Knee Surgery

Did you know that surgeons are increasingly embracing the use of robotic knee surgery in their practice? For some patients, robotic knee surgery can have many added benefits to traditional surgery, like reduced recovery time, improved accuracy, and longer lasting results. At Performance Orthopaedics, we always look for ways to improve our practice. We strive to familiarize ourselves with scientific advancements as they develop, so that we can provide the highest quality of care. See the advantages of robotic knee surgery for yourself to understand why we offer this groundbreaking operation through Zimmer Biomet’s ROSA® Knee System.

Accurate

As one of the most innovative technologies in orthopaedics, robotic knee surgery uses ergonomic instruments that are precise and give greater ease of use. Conventional instrumentation cannot provide the same level of accuracy as the ROSA® Knee System because of its ability to collect and report on real-time data. Surgeons are able to see the knee respond as they are manipulating it in the procedure to give highly accurate resections and limb alignment, one of the biggest advantages of robotic knee surgery.

Efficient

With flexible imaging options, the ROSA® Knee System provides greater efficiency before and during surgery. This minimizes scheduling requirements, addresses reimbursement concerns, and reduces preoperative planning time, all while reducing patient risk to radiation exposure. We create a plan for each surgery to give a replication of your anatomy along with unique instrument trays to provide surgeons with only the instruments they need to operate.  

Knowing the advantages of robotic knee surgery and other options can help you make the right decision for your body. Schedule a consultation with one of our surgeons today for more information about this innovation.

Note: There are risks involved with any operation. Please consult a doctor to know what your risks are for this type of surgery.


Wonderful Client Feedback

Dr. Diehl always listens and takes the most conservative approach for the injury rather than surgery first. He’s taken care of several of my sprains & falls. Highly recommend.

-Cynthia

I really like Dr. Maurer. He is so down-to-earth and honest. I’ve learned to trust his advice and guidance because he cares about his patients.

-Russ

Scheduling was quick, office staff was friendly and efficient and nurse and x-ray tech were friendly and thorough. Dr. Lessner was prompt and friendly. He made us feel comfortable and explained everything clearly and thoroughly.

-Clarissa

This has been one of the best medical care experiences I’ve had, from our initial consultation to post-op visits to physical therapy. Dr. Diehl and his team are a very caring, friendly, and professional group. I had a left knee injury (meniscus and ACL tears). Thank you!!

-Mark

Very impressed with Dr. Lessner. Very thorough and listened to me. He gave me multiple treatment options and involved me in the decision making. Highly recommend!

-Todd

Dr. Diehl was very kind and caring. I don’t think there is a person in this office who is not professional and personable. They go above and beyond for their patients.
