Handheld Robotic Surgery Options

Parkwest offers a variety of robotic surgery options for our orthopedic and spine patients. Our surgeons who perform robotic-assisted procedures are specially-trained and certified on each available platform they use.

This robotic system works in conjunction with our surgeon’s skilled hands to achieve the precise positioning of the knee implant based on each patient’s unique anatomy. This added level of accuracy can help improve the function, feel and potential longevity of the partial knee implant.

How Robotic Surgery Technology Works

Through an advanced computer program this system provides robotic assistance that relays precise information about your knee to a robotics-assisted handpiece used by our surgeons during the procedure.

By collecting patient-specific data, boundaries are established for the handpiece so we can remove the damaged surfaces of your knee, balance your joint, and position the implant with greater precision.
