TROY REGIONAL NOW OFFERING INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY IN TOTAL KNEE REPALCEMENT WITH STRYKER MAKO SMARTROBOTICS

Troy Regional Medical Center is excited to offer Mako SmartRobotics. This advancement in joint replacement surgery offers an innovative approach to total and partial knee replacements and transforms the way total knee replacements are performed by Dr. Robert Liljeberg, Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon.

"With the Mako Total Knee Replacement, I know more about my patients than ever before and I'm able to cut less. For some patients, this can mean less soft tissue damage; for others, greater bone preservation," Dr. Liljeberg said. "Mako's 3D CT allows me to create a personalized plan based on each patient's unique anatomy all before entering the operating room. During surgery, I can validate that plan and make any necessary adjustments while guiding the robotic arm to execute that plan. It's exciting to be able to offer this transformative technology across the joint replacement service line to perform total knee and partial knee replacements."

"We are proud to offer this highly advanced robotic technology in our service area," Rick Smith, Troy Regional Chief Executive Officer, said. "This addition to our orthopedic service line further demonstrates our commitment to provide the community with remarkable healthcare."
