Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur (PHKL) recently hosted its first-ever Ortho Experience Day, offering a rare, hands-on look at the hospital's cutting-edge MAKO Robotic Surgery System—a transformative tool in joint replacement procedures.

Guests were invited to operate the robotic arm on a surgical dummy, experiencing first-hand how robotic-assisted technology improves surgical precision, implant placement, and recovery time. PHKL's orthopaedic specialists were also on hand to discuss the evolving landscape of bone, joint, and sports injury treatments.

Robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery offers a range of benefits for patients, including:

• Greater surgical precision and implant accuracy
• Personalised surgical planning based on each patient's anatomy
• Reduced soft tissue damage and post-operative pain
• Faster recovery times and shorter hospital stays
• Improved long-term joint function and implant lifespan

The hands-on experience reflects PHKL's long-term commitment to integrating state-of-the-art technologies not only in patient care, but also in the training and upskilling of medical professionals, ensuring patients receive the most advanced and personalised treatments available.

With joint conditions such as osteoarthritis affecting more Malaysians each year, PHKL is proud to highlight its ongoing commitment to advanced technologies that support faster recovery, improved outcomes, and personalised orthopaedic care.
