ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY FOR JOINT REPLACEMENT SURGERY
Our experts use the latest technology, including robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery techniques, to ensure optimal outcomes and faster recovery times to get patients back to doing what they love.
Robotic-assisted surgery is an option for patients at UPMC St. Margaret and UPMC Passavant. The robotic system is a personalized surgical planning tool based on the patient’ s anatomy using pre-surgical CT scans. During your procedure, the robot will serve as a guide to help surgeons follow your surgical plan, precisely removing the damaged tissue and placing the new joint.
This often results in less trauma to soft tissues, which may lead to reduced pain, a faster recovery, and less time in the hospital. Robotic-assisted joint replacement allows us to size and position the implants more precisely, creating a better fit and function than traditional joint replacement.
