Breaking Barriers: Uttarakhand's First Robotic Knee Replacement at KVR Hospital
🏆 Uttarakhand’s First & Kumaon’s Only Centre with an In-House Robotic Knee Replacement System
We are proud to be the first in Uttarakhand and the only center in the Kumaon region to offer advanced robotic knee replacement surgery using our own dedicated robotic system — ensuring precision, safety, and faster recovery, all under one roof.
What is Robotic Knee Replacement?
Robotic-assisted knee replacement is a revolutionary surgical technique that uses advanced robotic systems to enhance the surgeon’s precision. This technology ensures:
✔ Perfect implant alignment for natural joint movement
✔ Minimal damage to healthy tissues
✔ Faster recovery compared to traditional surgery
It’s ideal for patients with advanced arthritis, severe joint damage, or those seeking long-lasting mobility solutions.
How Does It Work?
1. Pre-Surgical 3D Planning
- A high-resolution 3D scan of your knee creates a personalized surgical blueprint.
- The surgeon maps bone structure, ligament balance, and implant positioning.
2. Robotic-Assisted Precision
- The VELYS Robotic System (Johnson & Johnson) assists in bone preparation with sub-millimeter accuracy.
- Real-time adjustments ensure optimal implant fit and alignment.
3. Minimally Invasive Approach
- Smaller incisions → Less pain, minimal scarring
- Preserves healthy tissue → Faster healing
Robotic Vs Traditional Knee Replacement?
| Traditional Surgery | Robotic Surgery |
|---|---|
| Manual bone cuts | Computer-guided precision |
| Higher risk of misalignment | Perfect implant positioning |
| Longer hospital stay (5-7 days) | Quicker discharge (2-3 days) |
| More post-op pain | Reduced discomfort |
Clinical Advantage:
→ 98% implant accuracy (vs. 85% in manual surgery)
→ 20% faster recovery (Journal of Arthroplasty)
Patient Benefits
✔ Faster Return to Daily Life – Walk within hours after surgery
✔ Less Pain & Blood Loss – Minimally invasive technique
✔ Longer-Lasting Implant – Reduced wear & tear
✔ Natural Joint Feel – Precision alignment mimics real knee motion
Who is a Candidate?
✓ Advanced osteoarthritis patients
✓ Those with failed conservative treatments (meds, injections)
✓ Active individuals seeking quick recovery
✓ Patients wanting reduced surgical risks
