PolarisAR announced the first total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using its STELLAR Knee mixed-reality surgical guidance system.
STELLAR Knee is a mixed-reality surgical navigation platform that guides TKA procedures, displaying measured and computed data overlaid directly in a 3D environment. The mixed-reality system acts as a spatial computer, creating continuous data exchange between the surgeon and the software to help enhance surgical decision-making while simplifying operating room workflow.
FDA cleared the STELLAR Knee mixed-reality surgical guidance system in 2023 for use in TKA. STELLAR is designed to offer precise control over intraoperative variables compared to traditional instruments, navigation systems and first-generation augmented reality. Through measurement, planning and guidance, it enables surgeons to optimize lower limb alignment, soft tissue balance, joint line maintenance and component positioning.
STELLAR Knee is agnostic to implant and imageless, making it more accessible to surgeons.
Through the coming weeks, STELLAR Knee’s commercial launch will continue at leading institutions throughout the U.S.
“STELLAR Knee represents a paradigm shift in the OR, as we aim to offer surgeons robot-like precision and real-time guidance throughout TKA procedures,” said Paul Mikus, CEO of PolarisAR. “STELLAR Knee also fills a crucial gap in hospitals where existing robotic systems may already be in use. By seamlessly integrating into surgical workflows and delivering comparable precision in a mixed reality format, STELLAR Knee ensures that every patient can now access the highest standard of care.”
