In this condensed session, Dr. Steven Nishiyama narrates a RI.KNEE Revision case which he previously performed. This case will demonstrate the first robotic-assisted solution indicated for revision total knee arthroplasty.

The benefits of using an imageless, hand-held surgical robot for revision knee arthroplasty include:

  • No unnecessary exposure to radiation for the patient.
  • Inter-op registration and full ROM ligament laxity assessment.
  • Ability to define a precise aligned and balanced revision knee plan that allows for appropriate sizing and joint line restoration, regardless of the lack of boney landmarks.
  • Bone conserving, and precision milling to shape the bone and manage defects.
  • Component trailing that allows full ROM post-op knee balance assessment from the plan.
  • Precise component placement which can allow optimal outcomes.
  • Reduction of instrument trays which can lead to improved SPD thruput, reduced cost, and improved back table setup.
