Rosa Knee System (Robotic-Assisted Surgery)
The advanced Rosa Knee System at Busamed Modderfontein is a pioneering robotic platform offering enhanced accuracy in knee replacement procedures. By integrating real-time surgical data and guided robotics, the system allows our orthopaedic surgeons to plan, position and execute knee replacements with unprecedented precision, personalised specifically for each patient.
Through improved implant placement and alignment, patients experience lower complication rates, shorter recovery times and improved functional outcomes compared with traditional knee replacement techniques. Our highly trained surgical team utilises this innovation effectively, combining technological excellence with tailored patient care, ensuring excellent post-operative results.
At Busamed Modderfontein, the integration of robotic-assisted technology and clinical expertise underlines our commitment to cutting-edge orthopaedic treatment, advancing patient outcomes, and enhancing overall care quality.
