Consistently Reproducible Precision
From a blade
skiving through a cutting guide or a template not optimally balanced or
placed, traditional jig-based resection can compromise implant performance.
Now there's an option that enhances performance; the RIO® Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System

MAKO View - November 2008
MAKO View is a publication dedicated to providing information, data, perspective and opinions on healthcare and economics related to the new orthopedic solution, MAKOplasty®.

"The
real advantage of MAKOplasty is the technology which allows us to implant the
prosthesis far more accurately than we’ve ever been able to do."
Jess Lonner, M.D.

“MAKO has again taken a difficult, heavily instrumented procedure and made it much simpler to perform with accurate and reproducible results...The
lateral application is a promising addition, especially in the minimally invasive treatment
of women, who are more prone to this deformity.”
-John Velyvis, M.D.

"…The MAKOplasty system is the first platform that enables you to preoperatively evaluate a patient’s anatomy… then integrate that information into your surgical plan with precision, without using any cutting jigs…"
Martin Roche, M.D. |

"…within our first five cases we dropped our operating times from about an hour and a half down to one hour, and after the first twenty cases we were down to half an hour…"
Thomas Coon, M.D. |

"MAKOplasty has given me a higher level of comfort in doing partial knee replacements…because I know that the accuracy of the plan and the robotic arm are so high that the operation will be done properly every time."
