P. D. Hinduja Hospital & Medical Research Centre strengthens its orthopaedic care capabilities with the advanced, next-generation CORI Surgical System for robotic-assisted knee and hip replacement surgeries at both its Mahim and Khar units.
The CORI Surgical System, developed by Smith+Nephew, is a handheld robotic-assisted platform that enables surgeons to plan and perform total knee, partial knee, hip and complex revision joint replacement surgeries with enhanced accuracy and real-time intraoperative data. Unlike many conventional robotic systems, the platform does not require a pre-operative CT scan, thereby reducing radiation exposure for patients while making the surgical workflow more efficient and patient-friendly.
The technology maps the patient’s knee or hip anatomy during surgery and assists surgeons in creating a highly personalised surgical plan tailored to the patient’s unique anatomy. It also provides real-time data and haptic feedback, helping surgeons achieve millimetre-level precision while protecting surrounding healthy bone and soft tissues. This allows for more accurate implant positioning, improved joint alignment and stability, controlled bone preparation and a more natural feel after surgery.
As a special introductory offering, robotic-assisted knee and hip replacement surgeries using the CORI Surgical System will be provided at no additional cost for a limited period at P. D. Hinduja Hospital & MRC.
Mr. Gautam Khanna, CEO, P. D. Hinduja Hospital & Medical Research Centre, said, “Offering the advanced CORI robotic-assisted joint replacement system at P. D. Hinduja Hospital marks another important step in strengthening our orthopaedic capabilities. This technology enables our clinicians to deliver more precise, personalised and data-driven care while improving patient outcomes and recovery experience.”
Dr. Sanjay Agarwala, Director, Professional Services and Section Head, Orthopaedics & Traumatology, P. D. Hinduja Hospital & Medical Research Centre, said, “The CORI Surgical System allows surgeons to take a far more personalised and precise approach to joint replacement surgery. The technology provides real-time information during surgery, helping us make informed decisions regarding implant positioning, alignment, and tissue balance. The robotic system does not replace the surgeon; rather, it enhances surgical judgement and precision through advanced computation and real-time feedback.”
With this offering, P. D. Hinduja Hospital & Medical Research Centre continues to integrate globally advanced technologies with clinical expertise to deliver personalised, precise, and patient-centric care.
