Mako SmartRobotics™

Surgery Redefined: The Evolution of Joint Replacement

If joint replacement is recommended, patients can benefit from a safer, more targeted procedure

with Mako SmartRobotics™. Under the full control of the surgical team, the robotic arm assists in performing more precise knee and hip replacements.

Surgeons at Gleneagles Hospital Kuala Lumpur guide the Mako robotic arm with exceptional sensitivity, using advanced imaging and state-of-the-art software to achieve the best outcomes for each patient. Our esteemed orthopaedic specialists perform partial knee replacements, total knee replacements, and total hip replacements, ensuring optimal results and faster recovery.

What is Mako SmartRobotics™?

Traditional joint replacement addresses knee and hip pain caused by osteoarthritis or injury by replacing damaged tissue with an artificial implant. Mako SmartRobotics™ enhances this procedure by integrating 3D CT-based planning, AccuStop™ haptic technology, and data analytics to achieve superior precision.

Mako does not perform surgery on its own but serves as an advanced tool that enables surgeons to make real-time adjustments, ensuring accurate bone removal and implant placement. This results in better surgical outcomes, improved joint function, and reduced recovery time.

Mako SmartRobotics™ vs. Traditional Joint Replacement

Feature	Traditional Joint Replacement	Mako SmartRobotics™
Precision	Relies on surgeon's manual skill	3D CT-based planning and AccuStop™ haptic technology ensure precise cuts and implant placement
Bone Preservation	Potential for more bone removal	Removes only the necessary bone, preserving healthy tissue
Surgical Accuracy	Implant placement varies based on visual estimation	Real-time data and robotic guidance improve alignment and fit
Incision Size	Larger incision, more soft tissue disruption	Smaller incision, minimal tissue damage
Recovery Time	Longer hospital stay and slower return to activities	Faster recovery, shorter hospital stay
Complication Risk	Higher risk of misalignment, instability, and revision surgery	Enhanced stability and mobility
