Transforming Care Through Advanced Robotics
What Makes MAKO Robotic Arm Technology Unique?
MAKO robotic arm-assisted surgery technology is a groundbreaking solution for patients seeking relief from joint pain due to conditions like arthritis with cartilage damage. It uses cutting-edge robotics and 3D modeling to provide surgeons with a clearer view, greater control, and unmatched precision during surgery.
Here’s what sets MAKO apart from traditional surgical methods and why it might be the right choice for you.
Benefits of the MAKO Robotic Arm
- Enhanced Precision and Accuracy: MAKO’s advanced robotic arm technology allows surgeons to operate with astonishing precision, minimizing risks and ensuring implants are placed exactly where they should be.
- Faster Recovery Times: By relying on less invasive techniques patients can return to their activities sooner than with traditional surgery.
- Reduced Pain and Discomfort: MAKO arm-assisted procedures often lead to less post-operative pain due a more personalized approach.
- Improved Implant Alignment: The precise placement of implants enhances their longevity and stability, reducing complications and improving outcomes.
- Personalized Surgical Planning: With MAKO, every surgery begins with a unique 3D model of the patient’s joint, ensuring your procedure is designed specifically for you.
How MAKO Robotic Technology Works
The MAKO system delivers revolutionary precision using a three-step process.
- Scan: The process begins with a detailed CT scan of the affected joint. The scan creates a 3D model that provides valuable insights into your anatomy, helping surgeons plan with accuracy.
- Plan: Next, surgeons input the 3D model into the MAKO software to design a personalized surgical plan. This step optimizes implant selection and positioning specific to your joint structure.
- Execute with AccuStop Technology: During surgery, your orthopedic surgeon uses MAKO’s robotic arm, which is equipped with AccuStop technology, to ensure precise movements within predefined boundaries. This level of accuracy minimizes risks and ensures optimal outcomes for patients.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does MAKO surgery compare to traditional surgery?
MAKO-assisted surgery delivers a level of precision that isn’t achievable with manual techniques. The robotic arm keeps movements within strict boundaries defined by a 3D surgical plan, allowing the surgeon to perform the procedure with pinpoint accuracy. This often results in shorter recovery times, reduced pain, and improved implant alignment compared to conventional surgery.
Am I a candidate for MAKO arm-assisted joint replacement?
Patients experiencing joint pain due to arthritis from cartilage damage who haven’t found relief through non-surgical methods might be good candidates. MAKO is particularly effective for partial and total knee replacements. A thorough consultation with one of our board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic specialists can determine whether this technology is the right fit for your needs.
