Robotic Arm-Assisted Orthopedic Surgery in Istanbul is available at 10 hospitals in the Voumed network.

Robotic arm-assisted orthopedic surgery is a technology used mainly in knee and hip replacement to plan and carry out the operation with very high accuracy. A detailed three-dimensional plan is built from the patient's own CT scan, and during surgery a robotic arm guides the surgeon's instruments so that bone is prepared and the implant is positioned to that exact plan. The surgeon always holds and directs the instrument; the robotic arm adds steadiness and built-in limits that protect the surrounding tissue. The aim is a joint that fits and balances well, which can mean less pain and a smoother recovery.
