Leaders in Robotic Hip & Knee Surgery

It was the first private medical institution in Portugal to introduce the Mako robotic surgery system for orthopaedic procedures, reflecting a longstanding commitment to innovation and surgical excellence.

Today, experienced orthopaedic surgeons combine their expertise with advanced robotic technology to provide highly personalised hip replacement and knee replacement surgery.

For patients travelling from the UK, this means access to some of the most advanced technology available for modern joint replacement surgery — without the long wait.

Why Choose Robotic Surgery?

No two patients — and no two joints — are exactly the same.

That is why robotic hip surgery and robotic knee surgery begin with detailed planning based on your individual anatomy.

Using CT-based 3D imaging, the Mako system creates a detailed virtual model of your hip or knee. Your surgeon can use this information to develop a personalised surgical plan before your procedure begins.

During robotic hip replacement or robotic knee replacement surgery, the technology provides real-time guidance to help your surgeon perform the procedure with a high degree of precision.

Potential advantages of robotic-assisted joint replacement include:

Highly personalised surgical planning
Enhanced surgical precision
Precise implant positioning and alignment
Preservation of healthy bone and surrounding tissue
Reduced impact on surrounding soft tissue
Potential for less post-operative discomfort
Potential for earlier mobilisation
Support for rehabilitation and recovery
Potential for a shorter hospital stay

The robot never replaces your surgeon. Instead, robotic technology works in the hands of an experienced orthopaedic specialist, providing additional information and precision throughout your procedure.

Robotic Knee Replacement in Porto

Living with severe knee arthritis can affect almost every part of everyday life — from walking and climbing stairs to travelling, exercising and simply enjoying time with family.

For patients who have reached the stage where joint replacement is recommended, robotic knee replacement surgery offers an advanced, personalised approach.

Using Mako robotic technology, your surgeon can create a detailed 3D model of your knee and plan your procedure according to your individual anatomy.

During your robotic knee replacement, robotic-assisted guidance helps the surgeon follow this personalised plan and position the implant with precision.

The goal is simple: to help you move forward and return to the life you enjoy.
