MAKO Robotic-Assisted Surgery in Alaska

The Stryker MAKO robotic surgical system represents the gold standard in robotic-assisted joint replacement. Available at multiple facilities across Alaska, the MAKO system creates a patient-specific 3D model from CT scans, allowing the surgeon to plan and execute total hip, total knee, and partial knee replacements with robotic precision. The MAKO robotic arm provides real-time haptic feedback, preventing the surgeon from cutting beyond the pre-planned boundaries and protecting surrounding soft tissue.
