Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery

An alternative to traditional knee and hip replacement surgery, Trumbull Regional Medical Center offers innovative Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery for increased precision of partial knee, total knee and total hip replacement procedures.  Mako robotic-arm assisted surgery typically results in faster recovery time, less blood loss, smaller incisions and less pain. 

This cutting-edge technology uses GPS software to allow placement of a patient’s hip or knee implants with an accuracy that was never before possible. This accuracy leads to a lower rate of revision and improved longevity of the implants.

The benefits of a Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery may include:

• Improved surgical outcomes resulting in a more natural feeling joint following surgery
• Less implant wear and loosening
• Joint resurfacing
• Bone sparing
• Smaller incision
• Less scarring
• Reduced blood loss
• Shorter hospitalization
• Rapid recovery
