How robotic surgery works

Robotic surgery is similar to laparoscopic techniques, in which small incisions are made near the surgical treatment area. From a console in the operating room, the surgeon remotely manipulates surgical instruments, which are attached to robotic arms, to perform surgery through the incisions. A powerful camera provides magnified, 3-D images to provide clear details of the surgical area. Robotic technology gives surgeons enhanced dexterity, precision and range of motion.

da Vinci® Frequently Asked Questions

RIO® Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System

MAKOplasty® partial knee replacement can offer a minimally invasive option to treat knee pain associated with early to mid-stage osteoarthritis. Dallas Regional Medical Center’s orthopedic surgeons use the RIO® Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System to resurface the diseased portion of the knee, sparing the patient’s healthy bone and surrounding tissue. This technique offers patients a more natural knee motion.

Surgeons also use MAKOplasty® to provide a minimally invasive option for total hip replacement. This advanced technique allows surgeons to prepare the hip socket for a more exact implant alignment, and reduces complications such as excessive wear on the joint, unequal leg length or dislocation.
