In Cheboksary this year plan about 350 operations with the robot

The Federal Center for Traumatology, Orthopedics and Endoprosthetics in Cheboksary expands the use of robotic surgery. Already next week, there are plans to begin operations on the hip joint using a robotic system.

This was announced by the chief doctor of the Federal Center, Professor Nikolai Nikolaev after participating in the Moscow forum “Robotic endoprosthetics 2.0”.

According to him, robotic systems allow to perform interventions with an accuracy of a fraction of a millimeter. This is especially important in traumatology and orthopedics, where the surgeon works in complex anatomical areas and must precisely install the components of the prosthesis.

Another benefit of the technology is the ability to maintain more healthy bone tissue. As Nikolai Nikolaev noted, after such operations, the patient’s rehabilitation period can be 1-3 days.

At the forum, the chief doctor of the Cheboksary center moderated a section on modern approaches to total knee replacement. Experts discussed robotic planning according to CT data, kinematic alignment and restoration of joint anatomy.

By the end of 2026, the Federal Center in Cheboksary expects to conduct about 350 operations using robotic technologies.
