Are you living with severe knee arthritis that makes walking, climbing stairs, or sleeping uncomfortable? When pain no longer responds to medication, injections, or therapy, knee replacement may be the next step. Today, robotic-assisted technology offers greater precision and personalization during this procedure.
Cristobal Beiro, MD, performs MAKO robotic knee replacement in Avenel, NJ, for patients seeking advanced joint replacement solutions. As a board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon with subspecialty certification in Sports Medicine, Dr. Beiro is highly experienced in complex knee surgery and modern joint replacement techniques.
What Is MAKO Robotic Knee Replacement?
MAKO is a robotic-assisted system used during partial or total knee replacement. It combines 3D imaging and real-time guidance to help your surgeon position the implant with high accuracy.
Before surgery, a detailed CT scan creates a personalized surgical plan based on your unique anatomy. During the procedure, the robotic arm assists Dr. Beiro in preparing the bone and placing the implant according to that plan.
Benefits of Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement
Robotic-assisted surgery may offer:
- More precise implant positioning
- Improved joint alignment
- Preservation of healthy bone
- Potentially faster early recovery
- Reduced post-operative discomfort
Accurate alignment is important for implant longevity and overall knee function.
Who Is a Candidate?
MAKO robotic knee replacement may be recommended if you have:
- Advanced knee arthritis
- Chronic pain that limits daily activities
- Failed non-surgical treatments
- Damage confined to one part of the knee (partial replacement)
A thorough evaluation determines whether partial or total knee replacement is the best solution.
What to Expect During Recovery
After robotic knee replacement, most patients:
- Begin walking shortly after surgery
- Participate in structured physical therapy
- Gradually increase activity levels
- Experience steady improvement over several months
Full recovery varies but often continues for 3–6 months as strength and flexibility improve.
