Modern Minimally Invasive Knee Replacement

Modern knee replacement surgery focuses on safe exposure of the joint, precise removal of damaged cartilage, accurate implant placement, and long-lasting fixation. Thanks to continued advancements in technique and technology, today’s knee replacements offer less blood loss, shorter hospital stays, reduced pain, and a faster return to daily activities.

With the aid of advanced surgical planning and robotics, Dr. Shen is able to analyze the unique shape and ligament behavior of each patient’s knee. This individualized understanding allows him to determine the optimal implant position within the natural soft tissue envelope that surrounds the joint. Because every knee is different, each implant is positioned slightly differently based on patient-specific anatomy. This approach also reduces the need for extensive soft tissue releases or dissections.
