Robotic knee replacement is an advanced technique where a robotic-assisted system guides the surgeon in implant placement. This approach enhances precision, alignment, and joint stability while preserving healthy tissue. By using detailed imaging and preoperative planning, surgeons can customise each procedure to the patient’s anatomy.
At Varunam Super Speciality Hospital, Dr. Utsav Agrawal combines robotic technology with surgical expertise, achieving accurate joint alignment and optimal knee function. Consequently, patients experience reduced post-operative pain and faster rehabilitation compared to conventional methods.
Robotic knee replacement addresses several knee disorders, including:
- Severe osteoarthritis causing pain and stiffness
- Rheumatoid arthritis affecting joint mobility
- Post-traumatic joint damage
- Degenerative knee conditions reducing independence
Early intervention prevents further joint damage, improves mobility, and restores confidence in daily activities.
Patients undergoing robotic knee replacement enjoy multiple advantages:
- Highly accurate implant placement for better alignment
- Preservation of healthy knee tissues
- Reduced post-operative pain and swelling
- Faster recovery and early mobilisation
These benefits ensure long-term joint stability and improved quality of life.
Varunam Super Speciality Hospital provides the infrastructure and technology required for robotic knee replacement:
- State-of-the-art operation theatres with strict sterilisation
- Robotic-assisted surgical systems for precise implant positioning
- Advanced imaging facilities (X-ray, MRI, CT scans) for accurate preoperative planning
- High-quality knee implants and instruments
These facilities allow patients to receive world-class care locally in Betul without compromising safety or outcomes.
Dr. Utsav Agrawal is an experienced orthopaedic surgeon specialised in advanced knee replacement techniques. His approach emphasises:
- Accurate implant placement and joint alignment
- Early mobilisation and structured rehabilitation
- Personalised treatment plans based on individual anatomy
Under his supervision, patients undergoing robotic knee replacement in Betul experience reliable, long-term outcomes and restored mobility.
Recovery is a critical component of successful knee replacement surgery. At Varunam Super Speciality Hospital, rehabilitation focuses on:
- Gradual weight-bearing exercises to restore mobility
- Strengthening the quadriceps, hamstrings, and supporting muscles
- Balance and functional training for daily activities
Structured physiotherapy reduces complications, improves knee stability, and ensures patients return to normal life confidently.
Robotic knee replacement offers benefits that conventional surgery may not provide:
- Customised surgery based on the patient’s anatomy
- Improved accuracy and consistency in implant placement
- Reduced blood loss and tissue damage
- Enhanced post-operative recovery and long-term joint function
This precision leads to better functional outcomes and higher patient satisfaction.
Varunam Super Speciality Hospital also provides comprehensive post-operative care to support recovery:
- Dedicated physiotherapy units with modern equipment
- Pain management and monitoring protocols
- Structured follow-up plans for long-term joint health
- Lifestyle guidance to maintain implant longevity
These measures ensure smooth recovery and lasting benefits from robotic knee replacement.
Q1. Who is a candidate for robotic knee replacement?
Patients with severe knee pain, joint degeneration, or instability not relieved by non-surgical methods may benefit.
Q2. How long does recovery take?
Most patients regain walking and daily activity ability within weeks, with full recovery over months guided by physiotherapy.
Q3. Who performs robotic knee replacement at Varunam Super Speciality Hospital?
All surgeries are performed and supervised by Dr. Utsav Agrawal.
Q4. Is robotic surgery safer than conventional surgery?
Yes, robotic-assisted surgery allows precise implant placement, reduces tissue trauma, and improves post-operative recovery.
Q5. When can patients resume sports or heavy activities?
High-impact activities are usually resumed 6–9 months post-surgery, based on physiotherapy progress and surgeon guidance.
