JAMMU, Mar 7: Dr Ranjit Singh, Senior Joint Replacement Surgeon at Livasa Hospital, Amritsar, successfully performed a knee replacement surgery using the AI-powered Robolens technique on an 85-year-old patient from Jammu, demonstrating the effectiveness of the advanced procedure even in high-risk cases.
The patient, Chain Singh, who was suffering from severe knee pain along with heart disease and diabetes, underwent the surgery and recovered swiftly with minimal complications. Following the procedure, he is now able to walk without pain, sit cross-legged and climb stairs comfortably.
According to Dr Singh, the Robolens technique uses artificial intelligence to ensure highly precise alignment and placement of knee implants. The minimally invasive procedure involves smaller incisions, less blood loss and faster recovery for patients.
He said the surgery can be completed in nearly 20 minutes, significantly shorter than the two hours often required in conventional robotic knee replacement. Another key advantage is that the Robolens technique does not require drilling metallic pins into the thigh and leg bones, reducing the risk of fractures and infections.
Dr Ranjit Singh, who has performed more than 25,000 joint replacement surgeries, said the AI-powered Robolens technology offers a safe, accurate and cost-effective solution for patients seeking knee replacement surgery, with a reported success rate of about 99 percent.
