Introducing the VELYS Depuy Johnson and Johnson’s Fourth Generation Robot at Velachery Prashanth Hospital, a marvel of medical technology that is redefining knee surgery.
This sophisticated system includes a precision guided robotic arm operated by Dr. S. Arumugam, along with a cutting edge camera that provides a three dimensional view of the knee, allowing for accurate assessment, precise marking, and selection of the ideal prosthesis size to ensure perfect ligament balance and joint movement.
The robot helps verify the full range of movement of the prosthesis before Dr. Arumugam takes control of the robotic arm to perform precise bone cutting.
This robotic system does not work independently but enhances the surgeon’s precision and improves patient outcomes, resulting in reduced blood loss, minimal ligament strain, better range of motion, faster recovery, shorter hospital stays, and longer lasting results using high quality Depuy implants.
The advanced imaging system creates a real time three dimensional model of the joint, which is used to develop a detailed surgical plan to ensure the implant is placed in the ideal position.
During robotic surgery, the robotic arm guides surgical instruments with exceptional accuracy, making the procedure minimally invasive and reducing damage to surrounding tissues for quicker healing.
At Chennai Ortho, we proudly offer this revolutionary approach to knee replacement, delivering safer, more precise, and more effective treatment for our patients.
With no need for CT scans or MRI scans, the system uses high definition cameras and software to create a robotic surgical plan in real time.
The robotic system ensures unmatched precision and accuracy, providing better alignment and fit of the replacement joint.
By creating a three dimensional surface map of the knee and planning the surgery in real time, the system eliminates the need for bone marrow rods, preserving bone health and reducing the risk of complications.
The high level of precision also reduces the chances of complications such as implant loosening, dislocation, and nerve damage.
Each surgery is personalized, ensuring the replacement joint is positioned exactly according to the patient’s unique anatomy.
Robotic knee surgery is minimally invasive, resulting in less scarring, reduced pain, and faster recovery.
