Smith+Nephew announced the first cases for revision knee replacement utilizing its CORI◊ Surgical System. The handheld robotics technology was employed with the company’s LEGION◊ Revision Knee System.
RI.KNEE ROBOTICS uses image-free smart mapping, eliminating the need for pre-operative CT/MRI scans and the potential for image distortion due to in situ components from the primary procedure. Instead, surgeons are able to build patient-specific 3D models of the joint, register anatomy and bony defects after implant extraction, intra-operatively gap balance in real-time, and accurately precision mill for final placement of components.
CORI can address robotic-assisted total, partial and now revision knee arthroplasty, along with computer-guided total hip arthroplasty. By coupling robotics with Smith+Nephew’s LEGION RK System with OXINIUM◊ Technology, surgeons can work with a comprehensive implant and technology portfolio.
Over the last six months, Smith+Nephew has launched RI.HIP NAVIGATION, RI.HIP MODELER, “Cementless” CONCELOC◊ Advanced Porous Titanium 3D printing technology with the LEGION◊ CONCELOC Cementless Total Knee, and now a revision knee indication. All are supported by the CORI◊ Surgical System.
