Robotic-assisted hip surgery becoming a thing of the present
Robotic-assisted hip surgery was a pipe dream, even 10 years ago. We’re now firmly at a point where it’s integral to many surgeons work. Mr Daniel Phillip Thomas, who was the first in Wales to implant a new hip using a robotic arm last November, tells us all about advanced Stryker Mako technology used for this procedure. The leading consultant orthopaedic surgeon details how it’s significantly improved the procedure for both the patient and surgeon, as well as how it works, its benefits and how long the hip implants last.
