MOUNT VERNON – Orthopaedic surgeons and the medical staff at the Center for Orthopaedic Care at Knox Community Hospital (KCH) are excited to offer Zimmer Biomet’s ROSA (Robotic Surgical Assistant) Knee System.

Robotic technology and industry-leading knee implants work together to help surgeons personalize surgical procedures for their patients. ROSA Knee is a robotically assisted surgical system designed to help perform total knee replacement surgery. It includes features to assist with bone resections and assessing the state of soft tissues to facilitate implant positioning intraoperatively.

The ROSA Knee helps with complex decision-making and enables surgeons to use computer- and software technology to control and move surgical instruments, allowing for greater precision and flexibility during procedures.
