STAR Hospitals, Nanakramguda in Hyderabad has unveiled the New-Gen Robotic Surgery System for joint replacement surgeries - a cutting-edge innovation designed to bring greater precision, faster recovery with lesser pain to patients suffering from chronic knee joint problems.

Dr Shashikanth, Senior Orthopaedic Surgeon at STAR Hospitals, Nanakamguda shared, “Knee pain has increasingly become a lifestyle disease - driven by sedentary habits, obesity, and ageing. It doesn’t just affect the joint; it limits one’s ability to move, engage, and enjoy life. This new-gen robotic system empowers us to perform surgeries with exceptional precision and minimal trauma, leading to faster recovery, less pain, and better long-term outcomes. It’s a significant advancement in personalised orthopaedic care, and a meaningful step towards helping patients reclaim their active lives. And that makes a world of difference in how our patients at STAR Hospitals feel after surgery."

During the launch event, a detailed demonstration of the robotic surgery offered a compelling look at its precision in motion. It gave attendees a first-hand view of its cutting-edge capabilities. The simulation highlighted how the robot assists the surgeon with extraordinary precision, adjusting in real time to the patient’s anatomy to ensure optimal implant alignment. This level of consistency and accuracy is often challenging to achieve through conventional surgical methods, underscoring the system’s value in elevating joint replacement outcomes.

Dr Praveen Mereddy, Senior Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at STAR Hospitals, Nanakramguda elaborated on how the robotic surgery functions. He mentioned, “The beauty of this technology lies in its adaptability and accuracy. During the demonstration, he explained how the system creates a virtual 3D model in real time - allowing the robot to assist in aligning and placing the implant with precision. This ensures better joint balance and long-term results for patients, while reducing pain and complications post-surgery.”

Dr Veda Prakash, Senior Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, STAR Hospitals, Nanakramguda highlighted the deeper patient impact.
He said, “Technology is only as good as the care it helps deliver. At STAR, our focus has always been patient-first. This robotic system strengthens our ability to offer advanced care with a human touch - where safety, comfort, and long-term outcomes are all thoughtfully integrated into every procedure.”
