Targeted Surgical Care for Partial Knee Joint Damage
Are you experiencing persistent knee pain but are apprehensive about the size of the incisions, the length of the recovery period, and the accuracy of the surgical procedure?
It is very natural for many patients to get surrounded by the fear of extensive surgery once their doctor recommends knee joint replacement surgery for them. The uncertainty often leads to treatment delays, causing further worsening of knee pain, stiffness, and swelling.
Then, robotic knee replacement surgery can be the solution for their concerns. It’s a technically advanced approach that combines surgeon expertise with robotic precision. It provides highly accurate implant positioning, less damage to nearby tissues, and an early return to daily activities.
Robotic knee replacement is a type of knee replacement surgery that is performed with an advanced approach where the surgeon sits on a console near the patient and controls the robotic arms to replace the damaged knee joint with artificial implants. The robotic surgical system is positioned and adjusted over the surgical site.
This technique leads to high accuracy of implant positioning without the scope of human errors. The robotic assistance helps in both planning and executing the surgery with the best possible outcomes. Both total and partial knee replacements can be done with this robot-assisted approach.
A 3D model of the knee is created using high-end robotic imaging tools that help with:
The advanced surgical setup helps with:
For robotic joint replacements, patient selection is critical. Our team will carefully evaluate each patient and recommend knee replacement based on clinical evaluation, lifestyle needs, and faster functional recovery. Other considerations are:
Age-related wear and tear of the joint
Inflammatory joint disease causing damage to the supportive structures of the knee joint
Knee pain and discomfort induced by injuries or fractures
Malalignment of the joint due to progressive damage
Progressive cartilage damage that is not responding to medications or physiotherapy
The following are the types of specialised implants designed to fit only the affected part of the knee joint:
Femoral Component
Tibial Component
Polyethylene Insert
Implant selection mainly depends on the following factors:
Based on the above-mentioned factors, our specialists will advise you on either a robotic partial or total knee replacement:
Robotic Partial Knee Replacement
This approach is considered when knee damage is confined to a single compartment. Robotic assistance helps by:
Robotic Total Knee Replacement
This approach is recommended when damage involves multiple compartments of the knee. Robotic guidance supports:
The following conditions make you an eligible candidate for robotic knee replacement:
The surgery usually lasts 1–2 hours, depending on the procedure type. Robotic assistance helps ensure precise bone preparation and implant positioning.
#Robotic Joint Replacement and Arthroscopic
Dr. Ishwar Bohra is currently the Senior Director at BLK-Max Hospital with over 24 years of experience in Joint Replacement and Arthroscopic.
To restore natural knee movements in the long term, we employ the most biocompatible and durable implants that offer stability, durability, and comfort.
Our specialists are experts at performing robotic joint replacements for maximal tissue preservation using smaller incisions, enabling the patient to experience less pain and faster recovery.
Our advanced operation theaters and high patient safety standards help our surgeons to provide the most effective and practical surgical planning that aids in accurate implant positioning and alignment.
We follow globally accepted infection control protocols to ensure maximal patient safety before, during, and after the surgery.
We provide technology-driven rehabilitation and structured physical therapy support at our advanced physiotherapy unit to improve mobility, strength, and overall post-surgical knee performance of the patient.

Savitri DeviA: Robotic assistance helps in tissue preservation and smaller incisions. This results in much less post-operative pain in comparison to other approaches.
A: Because of high precision and minimal damage to the supporting structures, robotic knee replacement is the safest and most effective option for joint damage that fails to respond to non-surgical treatment options.
A: Yes, robotic assistance can be used for both procedures in suitable patients.
