If you are living with mid to late-stage osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee, Mako™ Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgery may be an option for you. During Mako assisted surgery, your orthopedic surgeon will use a robotic-arm assisted procedure that includes real-time information and images of your knee, allowing for more precise placement of the knee implant.
Mako Total Knee is designed to give you a new level of precision using the latest techniques in knee replacement. It helps restore mobility and an active lifestyle. Other benefits include:
Your physician should discuss the specific risks associated with Mako and other treatment options with you. In addition, you should be informed of any pre-operative and post-operative instructions by your surgeon or their staff.
As a knee arthroplasty procedure, Mako is typically covered by Medicare and most other insurance plans. Check with your health insurer.
