With knee and hip-related conditions on the rise across all age groups, Medicover Hospital, Navi Mumbai, has taken a giant leap forward by launching this state-of-the-art robotic system. This advancement is set to redefine knee and hip replacement surgeries, offering exceptional precision, minimal pain, and a faster recovery process while enhancing patient outcomes.

Currently, Knee and hip-related conditions are becoming increasingly common. These problems are just no longer limited to elderly people as sedentary lifestyles, obesity, arthritis, and injuries altogether contribute to this rising concern in people of all ages. Unbearable knee and hip pain makes it difficult to perform daily activities with ease. To address this and help people regain their freedom of movement, Medicover Hospital has introduced the MISSO robotic system.

A 76-year-old woman suffering from severe knee arthritis underwent a robotic total knee replacement today. In an extraordinary outcome, she was seen walking in the ward just two hours after surgery, demonstrating the precision, faster recovery, and patient-friendly benefits of this revolutionary robotic system.

“We are seeing a higher number of younger patients suffering from knee and hip-related issues. Traditional surgeries, though effective, take a longer time to recover. Around 70% of people from all age groups suffer from knee or hip pain at some point in time and struggle with day-to-day activities. Approximately, 10%-20% are advised knee and hip replacements to deal with the debilitating pain and 2%-3% may require knee and hip revision surgeries. Currently, the MISSO robotic system is a game changer that provides exceptional accuracy, reduces hospital stays, minimizes blood loss, lowers the risk of infections, and faster recovery. ” concluded Dr. Deepak Gautam, Director Of Orthopedic, Medicover Hospital, Navi Mumbai.

Dr. Nikhil, Consultant Orthopedic Surgeon, Medicover Hospital, Navi Mumbai added, “This technology will be a boon for Navi Mumbaikars, allowing them to access world-class robotic-assisted surgery. With reduced hospital stays, patients can return to their normal routine much faster than usual, and experience less pain and greater mobility post-surgery.”

Dr. Mataprasad Gupta, Centre Head of Medicover Hospitals stated, “The MISSO Ortho Surgical Robot is designed to provide robotic-assisted precision with 3D imaging, e preserving soft tissues, optimizing implant positioning, and improving post-surgical mobility. By launching this next-generation robotic system, Medicover Hospital is committed to reducing complications, accelerating healing, and ensuring patients regain mobility faster than ever before.”

Neeraj Lal, Regional Director for the Maharashtra Region at Medicover Hospitals said, “At Medicover, we remain at the forefront of innovation, dedicated to bringing the latest advancements for the well-being of our community, ensuring patient safety and comfort.”
