This allows for <strong>more precision and accuracy<\/strong> during the surgery.rnrnThe surgeon can see the <strong>computer-generated image<\/strong> in real time while performing the operation.rnrnThe alignment of the knee replacement implant is <strong>more accurate<\/strong> (accuracy of 0.5 mm and 0.5 degrees) and predictable compared to how it would be when doing surgery just with naked eyes.rnrnThe system<strong> acts as a GPS for the human body<\/strong> helping the surgeon by providing real-time navigation information and enhanced 3-D visualization.rnrn<a title=\"CAOS - Comuter Assisted Orthopedic Society\" href=\"http:\/\/www.caos-international.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The International Society for Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery<\/a><span class=\"ff2 fc0 fs8\">u00a0is a <strong>non-profit organization<\/strong> working towards the growth of this field.<\/span>rnrn\n    <h2 id=\"\" class=\"section-heading\">Advantages of Computer-Aided Knee Replacement Surgery<\/h2>\n    rn<\/p>\n<ul class=\"square-li-color-style\">rn t<\/p>\n<li><strong>Smaller<\/strong> incisions as itu2019s a minimally invasive surgery<\/li>\n<p>rn t<\/p>\n<li>Faster <strong>recovery<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>rn t<\/p>\n<li><strong>Less bleeding<\/strong> and lesser chance of blood clotting<\/li>\n<p>rn t<\/p>\n<li><strong>Less pain<\/strong><\/li>\n<p>rn t<\/p>\n<li>Easy on the patient and doctor<\/li>\n<p>rn t<\/p>\n<li>Reduces chances of human error<\/li>\n<p>rn t<\/p>\n<li><strong>Increased implant longevity<\/strong> as it reduces chances of bad alignment requiring revision surgeries.<\/li>\n<p>rn<\/ul>\n<p>rn<div id=\"utnp\" class=\"content-area content-area--box\"><p>rnrnTheu00a0<strong>total knee replacement <\/strong>usually lasts about<strong> 15 to 20 years. <\/strong>With the<strong> computer-assisted orthopedic surgery,<\/strong> the knee replacement can<strong> last up to 30 years<\/strong>u00a0without needing a replacement.rnrn<\/p>\n<\/div>rnrnThese advantages are achieved as computer assisted total knee replacement is a <strong>minimally invasive surgery<\/strong> (also known as laparoscopic or endoscopic surgery).rnrnIn these type of surgeries, <strong>specialized instruments<\/strong>, monitors, fiber optic lights, miniature cameras and computer monitors are used to perform the surgery through a small incision unlike a traditional surgery which is more invasive.rnrnAlthough the surgery is performed using a computer system, it does not mean that it can be done by a surgeon with any less knowledge and experience.
