Arthroplasty Surgery in Turkey
Joint pain and limited mobility, which directly affect quality of life, can now be permanently resolved thanks to modern medical technologies. Turkey has become a global center in the field of hip and knee arthroplasty with its world-class hospitals and advanced surgical techniques. As Pendik Bölge Hospital International, we offer the most up-to-date arthroplasty methods to help our patients return to a pain-free and active life.What is Arthroplasty?
Arthroplasty is the surgical reconstruction of joints that have lost their function, have damaged cartilage structure, or cause pain due to severe osteoarthritis. In this procedure, damaged joint surfaces are removed and replaced with high-strength prostheses made of metal, ceramic, or polymer components. The most common applications are knee and hip arthroplasty.Robotic Arthroplasty: A New Era in Surgery
Beyond traditional methods, robotic arthroplasty surgery (makoplasty) offered at Pendik Bölge Hospital International takes the success of the surgery to the millimeter level.- Personalized 3D Planning: The patient’s anatomy is modeled in 3D using pre-operative CT scans. The placement of the prosthesis is planned in advance in a virtual environment according to the patient’s own bone structure.
- Haptic Feedback and Precision: The robotic arm guides the surgeon’s hand, allowing intervention only on the damaged bone tissue. Healthy tissue and ligaments are preserved, which reduces the margin of error to zero.
- Natural Feeling: Thanks to the placement of the prosthesis at the perfect angle, patients feel their joints much more “natural” and flexible after surgery.
