The Indian Spinal Injuries Centre (ISIC) has launched its Robotic Joint Replacement Department, following successful knee robotics surgeries using advanced navigational technology.

Announcing the launch and new milestone, Bholi Ahluwalia, Chairperson, ISIC said, “We, at ISIC, always strive to adopt cutting-edge technologies for better clinical outcomes. With the launch of cutting-edge knee robotics, ISIC would be performing thousands of knee replacements with newly introduced robotic knee replacement procedures each year and would sincerely strive to bridge the existing gap.”

“We employ the latest US FDA-approved anatomically accurate personalized implants, ensuring a natural knee feeling.  Our multidisciplinary team approach ensures comprehensive patient care, with physiotherapists assessing individual needs and follow-up appointments scheduled for continued care,” said Dr Deepak Raina, Head of Department and Chief of Hip Replacement Services, ISIC.

“The Rosa Knee robotic system, utilized at ISIC, customizes knee replacements for each patient’s anatomy, potentially resulting in a more natural knee feeling in the long run. With reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes, ISIC is poised to redefine knee replacement surgery in India,” added Dr Raina.

“While the robot plays a crucial role in enhancing precision, the orthopedic surgeon maintains full control. Knee robotics enhances knee joint alignment, allowing patients to regain a more natural range of motion for daily activities and an active lifestyle. Reduced complications and misalignments lower the need for revision surgery, resulting in fewer surgical interventions for patients,” explained Dr Vivek Mahajan, Senior Consultant Orthopaedics – Joint Replacement and Arthroscopy Services, ISIC.
